Jolly to the Seaside

THE Lancashire Telegraph has spotted a gem where Blackburn with Darwen Council sent 80 people on a three-day 'jolly' to Blackpool - very nice. And we paid!
They spent two nights at the four-star Imperial Hotel, it is reported, enjoying full breakfasts as part of seminars discussing "health and wellbeing".
And the cost - £23,000!
The borough’s council leader admitted: “It probably wasn’t the smartest thing.”
