First Ever Blog + New Brighton Trip

Hello, welcome to my first ever blog post! :D

If you are reading this and haven't a clue who I am, my name is AJ The Fangirl or just AJ. I am a Youtuber from the United Kingdom who currently has just over 400 subscribers (as of the 9th February 2017, the day I am writing this).

I am also a full time fangirl, I fangirl over celebrities, TV shows, videos and almost anything I love. My main idol is Lady Colin Campbell, I first saw her on I'm A Celebrity: Get Me Out Of Here! in November 2015. I have other idols too, like Kim Woodburn (aka The Queen of Clean), Ariana Grande, Joe Lynch and loads more people I will probably fill up a whole blog post typing them all up!

I will use this website for blogging what has been going on in my life, where I have been and what I have done! So all I'm gonna do is do a simple recap of what happened yesterday, 8th February 2017.


It was my dad's birthday and me, my mum, my dad (obviously as its his birthday hehe) and my brother were going out to a restaurant, I didn't want to be told where we were going as I wanted it to be a surprise. We ended up going to one of my favourite places, Prezzo New Brighton :D

But before that we went to Morrisons New Brighton where I filmed a ride video for my channel (Northern Leisure Sportacus Flypod Kiddie Ride) and then we went to Prezzo.
Then we realised (when we were outside) we had half an hour until the table was ready, so we decided to take a stroll to the arcade nearby, The Bright Spot Arcade, but unfortunately, it wasn't open until 1pm (it was about 12pm when we got to the arcade) but one just near, Arcadia, was open so we had about a couple of minutes in there. Whilst I was in there I went on the weakest sweets grab machine ever!
It could grab something but it would slip like oil!! I managed to win a crocodile grabbing thing with an orange lolly in it, but I wanted to swap for a strawberry lolly that looked like an ice cream (I've had a blue raspberry version of it before and it was divine).

Me being me, I went to attempt to swap it only to be told,

"I'm not allowed to swap it, sorry."

I was pretty mad after that, I was stuck with a cheap grabbing toy with a probably out of date orange lolly inside it! We decided to get the table for Prezzo about 10 mins earlier than expected, the view from Marine Point is stunning. The food was delicious, I would certainly go there again.

After Prezzo, we then walked to the Bright Spot again. It was finally open, we visited there and all the rides were the same and in the same places. I managed to win a squidgy duck on one of the mini claw machines, its so cute but the air managed to deflate a couple of hours later :( we are hoping to find the hole in him so we can fix him.
The arcade was really quiet as it was term time, I actually spent one pound on a snake whacking game that I only won 7 tickets on !

We were then exiting the arcade when my dad pointed out that someone had left a plush of Marshall from PAW Patrol on one of the seats outside, so I looked around (because someone could have gone in to get something and left it there? But I realised they could have taken it with them, or they didn't want him? They could have left him?) and I ran over to the seat, scooped up Marshall and ran back to my parents and my brother.

We then left New Brighton and headed back home. Didn't really get up to much when I arrived home, the day before I managed to find a BBC Toybox Games Collection in the Oxfam Charity Shop in Chester. Then I managed to find a Pingu Forever VHS and a Rainbow: Zippy Sets Them Up VHS on a shelf near the tills raising money for Diabetes UK, 50p per video, I got home and my mum pointed out that Pingu Forever used to be at Wealstone Lane Library in Upon, last take out date for it was the 13th June 2005!! Goes back to 2004 hehe.

I tried the Toybox PC Rom disc on my computer and it works! Its a really good disc and it has loads of games from shows that aired on CBBC the time it was released. It is really good actually.

I guess that's all I have to write for this blog post, comment below if you have any questions, this is AJ signing out! :)
