Blackpool has always been my favourite film fair and I am sure the new team will carry on the legacy providing a great film weekend . Always a pleasure meeting up with friends with a common interest , I am sure if Dom can make it from Belgium as many as possible should make the trip from the UK, for those who have never been you will not be disappointed !
