The Blackpool Play Expo 2018. What a marvellous thing; Retro Gaming, Arcade Cabs, Retro Stalls! DJ Slope, Kim Justice!.... But the main emphasis of video isn't about that. It's about a 6 hour road trip involving myself & Ashens, a shared hotel room (in the infamous Norbreck Hotel) with winds more extreme than the South Atlantic, a crawl around Blackpool's streets in the middle of the night and a panel talk after (verging on) severe sleep deprivation. LET THE SEAGULLS SING and thank the lord we all arrived home safely.
