    But a works dinner dance in BLACKPOOL?! Admittedly, there's not many firms having socials at the moment, but I think it might be time to look for another job!

    Enjoy, Graham.

    Steady on Graham...

    Nowt wrong wi' Blackpool. Great venue to host a dinner dance in the winter time. No problem finding accommodation for everone attending and keen competition over pricing 'cause all the hotels and catering providers want your business at this time of year. The Stag and Hen Night groups that do go there are not coming to your function so where's the problem?

    Blackpool is a great northern seaside town. Clean, friendly and making the best of difficult times. I'm sure the place will have a resurgence now that the euro and pound almost equate and people will not be tripping off to the spanish sun for their hols. The candyfloss and kiss me quick hat image tends to be perpetuated by people who've never been there or not been there in a very long time... It's changed drastically in the last 30 years. It's had to.
    It's also very kilt friendly by the way... It should be with the number of Scots who visit in the summer. I have been kilted there on a couple of occasions and no negatives to report.

    I only work part time for a well known car hire firm. We were at the Hilton hotel in Blackpool where we stayed the night-The company give us a car with petrol for the weekend & the dinner dance also, so I don't think its a bad firm to work for. Blackpool is great.
