The properties all along the promenade are the biggest shithole from hell so its not helping much. If Douglas is a shithole, what on earth is Morecambe? I lived in Lancaster for 2 years and had to travel to Morecambe most days, utter hole unless you were a drug addict, loved a chippy or 2p falls machines Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can leave my car unlocked when I pop into the local farm shop. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Morecombe will benefit from Eden North, if it happens, and happens there. Blackpool was an awful tacky place. I am glad to say Douglas is far better. Blackpool has got a Sainsbury's, a new Holiday Inn, a Hampton that's recently expanded, numerous Premier Inn's and Ibis. Not to mention Wetherspoons and trams that don't run down the middle of the carriageway i.e. sensibly towards the seaward paved side. All that said, it's still a hole, but does show Douglas has some way to go yet before it rises off the bottom of the table. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lager was £7.00 a pint. Took the tram along the prom, and it was chip shop after chip shop with the odd “Kiss Me Quick” hat shop thrown in. Prefer Douglas.
