They are amazing :y.

  I used to live in WSM from 82 to 86 and worked in the 1st garage(Weston Motoring Centre)you come to off the M/way doing Tyres/Exhausts and Brakes, oh happy days :).

  Have they done anything to the pier yet?

The pier is under construction along with better sea defences so it is looking good but they have a huge big wheel (bit like London eye but a tad smaller) which allows you to see over the town/bay

hmm thought I posted this to gen chat if a mod could move it :y
