Thanks for the advice. I go to Blackpool about once a year, and I've never tried the Cookson Street RLD. I'm now pretty certain I never shall.
Mind you, I'm a bit surprised by the high(ish) prices and lousy attitude: Blackpool is one of the most depressed areas in the North West, and its heyday as a tourist destination ended in the 1970's. Even then, there was bugger all tourism in the winter. So if your'e running a year-round business like a brothel (sorry, massage parlour), you need all the customers you can get, and you need to keep them returning. They must be living in the past at these places.
