    Default A Visit to Lytham

    My cousin lives there and we went across for lunch and to walk the dogs, I was experimenting with my defunct camera and the first one was taken looking directly into the sun and produced a photograph with a distinct amber hue. Absolutely no editing has taken place just reduction using pixresizer

    Thanks for the nice comments, it is strange but I have never called it Lytham St Annes for me they have always been quite distinct and separate places but it is is very difficult now to tell where one ends and the other begins however the inhabitants are extremely territorial and soon put you right if you get it wrong

    Ah! but what caused it was the fact that Lytham and St Annes wouldnt fit on the Bus destination screens so they dropped the "and" bit.Well thats my theory anyway

    Default Yep

    A very valid theory Ian indeed East Lancashire coach builders have been in Blackburn for decades and we often used to see them out on a test drive bearing shortened version of place names on the front
