Blackpool Rock

Post by basil6345789 » Tue May 21, 2024 5:47 pm

I see China is trying to take-over the supply of Blackpool and all other lettered rock. God help us. Not only an economic loss but what will be in it?

The west has given up!
When China mobilise for war, they will have world domination of manufacturing and we can do video games!

Regarding Blackpool rock, is the legend of it being created by an ex-miner from Burnley true?

Reminds me of the old one about The Blackpool Rock Co firing a guy but giving him seven days notice.
They're still trying to get rid of two ton of the stuff with Kiss My A**e running through it.
