Not a flashback to a news story in Morecambe of years gone by, but unfortunately another old pier ravaged by fire. Very sad.

[Christies Child]

Very sad.

I've been on that pier many years ago and in many ways it was like going back in time to my days on our former pier.

at least the Stone Jetty is safe for a few hundred years !

I wonder if they will they get a Grant to re-build it.

Shirley if they know who done it, they can prostitute them?

[marky No.1]

Its almost disa-pier-ed now

[Why no t]

Hugh Fire should be locked up and throw away the key.

[Number 1]

I'm sure he'll go out in a blaze of publicity. Bet it was all because of an old flame.

[Plain Peter]

W-s-M is a really pleasant place.
And it's good to hear that the owner has already made his intentions clear about re-building the pier.
One big plus point about the prom area is the number of free, spotless and attended lavs.

[Keith]

W-s-M has spotless lavs,
Morecambe has spotty chavs...

Both towns are without piers
