You will know if you have read a few of my posts... that we love the coastal town of Morecambe...
...up here in the north west of England.
My first visit to this little bit of seaside was when I was 15,
and came over on the Heysham ferry with a load of Belfast school children.
I loved it!
The amusements...now mostly long gone....the swimming pool...now long, long gone...
...ah well.
I have great memories of the freedom of those days.
We have a neighbour, young and creative... who has taken on the task of researching and finding many of the people of those 1950's days.
The following is her latest art film, backed by the Arts Council, dedicated to many of the entertainers...
... and joy of joys....
...the swimmers...
... who entranced me and my friends with their syncronized swimming in the Olympic sized pool to the music of the organist who appeared out of nowhere to entertain us!
......."Give me sunshine".......
