Vintage film footage of summer holidays and carefree social events of yesteryear.
Given that it is looking increasingly likely that, come the summer, we’ll all still be locked in our houses under fear of arrest for buying the wrong sort of food, it seems that we might only be able to enjoy trips to the seaside and the holidays in the sun virtually. Perhaps there will be a market for sand shipped to families to put in their garden alongside a paddling pool in order to recreate that summer vibe – though only for an hour at a time, of course.
Anyway, let’s look back at happier days, when people were allowed to leave their homes and enjoy the pleasures of the holiday resort.
