How it felt

Blackpool threw everything at us, particularly the weather. The wind howled, the rain lashed down, and we changed plans along the way. But the laughter, the entertainment and the company made it a weekend worth remembering.

The best moments were often the unexpected ones: a show that got everyone dancing, a spooky alternative when the Tower was closed, and a cosy fish-and-chip supper while the storm carried on outside.

Our individual stories from the weekend are collected below.
