Closer to Home Sunny Blackpool

Well it seems at long last people are making the effort to improve the look of this Blog,

by contributing to it with a range of different views,

sadly again it is McDonalds(they seem to be everywhere),

but this is in the typical Lancashire seaside resort of Blackpool,

where the famous illuminations are on at present, the tower has a glass platform at the top which those who are brave enough can stand on & look all the way down to the ground, I would have a go if only I was not so sensible

Latvia Fast Food

Well Hello folks,

Zorro has done it again, whilst recently in Latvia he kindly took these photos to show how quickly they are catching up with all the best of American & British culture, these are his comments

Just returned from Latvia. Cold but great fun!

This is your ordinary foto of Mc's.This one is the capital, Riga. On Aspazijuas Blvd. in the Old Town. I am told by my good friend , there is something wrong with this foto.The red car (Fiesta?VW?). What? It is not that it is on the zebra crossing

She tells me(remember I cant speak Latvian) in her fractured but sexy english that only rich people can afford to drive in the centre of the city. From what I can gather it is not a tax like London but that you need a expensive licence to drive in said city .centre. When I look at it now I see that the other car is a expensive Volvo - taxis, buses & trams are exempt.

Italian Fast Food

Well as nobody else is letting me have any new photos of fast food joints I have had to have a holiday to obtain at least one of my own.

By the way dont forget to read the full story in the blog of the holiday, well what about this as a novel style of Mcdonalds I nearly missed it & what a beautiful setting it is in

I was quite suprised at how busy it was & full of local young people & no they were not eating Pizza but big Macs & other similar local food

Have you guessed yet where it was well the other photo is of the amphitheatre in Verona, the location of the setting for Romeo & Juliet as you will see from the photo of the balcony, interestingly enough people forget that the book was written by Shakespeare and was fictional, so in reality the location never existed but has been done to promote the area & encorage tourists.
Legend has it that if people rub the left breast of Juliets statue it will bring happiness.
