Well gents I am off to Blackpool for a weekend of drinking and the odd bit of gambling. Anyone been recently? Going to stay out of arcades and just play in pubs.

Dare say everything is sharked to hell up there. But will drop in a report on monday when i get back.

I went a couple of weeks back...

Spent the day between Mr. T's and Coral Island, both do have regular sharks but it wasn't too bad.

I'd avoid the piers, they're full of scallies, constantly stood behind you waiting for you to walk away so they can try a couple of 10p's :roll:

The over 18's section is Mr. T's is recomended, there's a few decent red's in there, and a few lo-tech multiplayer's that seem to pay well.

Good luck!

I went there about a month ago. The arcades especially Coral and Mr T's have sharks galore. The fact that they can just sit in there all day sometimes for hours without even investing a sinlge pound pisses me off. I chatted to a few and they were reasonable enough, but they are just so blatant about it. Got a few funny looks in Coral when we ran the BattleAxe though!!! Missed out on that one didn't you Coral boys!!! To busy re-chasing jackpoteers AGAIN?????? Why the dirty looks?

The arcade towards the pleasure beach has some good hi-tecs but they are always dead yet you never see anyone play them!!

Pubs are a different story tho, made good in these. Quite a few reds that were showing the odd extreme and panther if you go looking.

The piers are shit, there will always be someone behind you in minutes if you play something that a local fancies their chances on, they look so pissed off tho if you catch something ready before they do!!

Ha Ha!! They can't have everything!!!

Well the weekend was good.

The machines on the other hand were well covered. Did manage to land on a few Reds that were flying that paid for one of the days out.

I know in a lot of towns you see plenty of DOND but my god every pub that had more than one machine had one of the varieties in. Infact one public house had three different versions in it !

Stayed well away from the arcades full of scum of the earth type characters. Plus had plenty of drinking and other activities to do.
