Seaside resorts

Interesting little piece about seaside resorts in the Independent to day.

http://www.independent.co.uk/opinion/commentators/joan-smith/joan-smith-whod-want-to-be-beside-the-seaside-2099724.html

The English resort "is a dismal row of tattoo parlours, slot machine arcades and takeaway food shops."

"it's impossible to escape the pervasive smell of frying fat, as though there's an unbreakable link between the seaside, fast food and cafés with formica tables."

Sound familiar?

Worth a read, even to disagree.
