Cleveleys and Blackpool

This past week I have spent in the company of my Grandad in Poulton-le-fylde in Lancashire.  It has been a fantastic week visiting places, catching up with friends, attempting to play golf (I don't suppose it helped that I was wearing heels!) and of course plenty of meals out including 3 trips to Morrisons!

On Thursday my Grandad and I headed over to Blackpool in search of the Accountants I am going to be doing some work experience for in July.  After finding where it was we headed over to Morrisons to do the weekly shop.  It had a been a while since I'd been to the Blackpool store so it made a nice change.  Not much had changed since I'd last been but it was nice to see they were getting ready for the changeover to the 'fresh new look' style.

The weekend saw a trip down memory lane.  On Saturday we picked my sister up from school and headed to Morrisons.  A trip which I use to do every weekend (Read about it here). I even remember the days when it was a Safeway before Morrisons took it over.  

It's definitely got to be one of my favourite stores - after going there for so long I recognise so many of the staff and some even recognise me!  My Grandad often gets asked how I'm getting on when he goes by himself which is nice.  Even the guy who sells the double-glazing windows knows us!  I was very impressed with the 'fresh new look' the store had - definitely a great move for Morrisons!  

On Sunday we were back again but this time we had the famous Fish and Chips!  Here's a picture of us from Saturday enjoying Soup & Jacket Potatoes.

I did say last time that my next post would be about Birthday cakes but I thought I'd save that for another time!  

Since my last post I have heard from a lady who works at the Minehead store who has invited me down to visit - she even said she may be able to get hold of a 'gilet' for me which would be super cool!  I will hopefully get round to heading down there before the end of Summer.  I've also heard from a guy who works at the Wetherby store which is in West Yorkshire - somewhere else I need to plan a trip to!  It was interesting to here he'd been working there for nearly 13 years! That's dedication!  It's always nice to hear from Morrisons staff, so do get in touch if you work for +Morrisons.
