Good riddance
Suddenly the two demolished brick beach shelters have become icons for all that was great and good along our Promenade.
In actual fact they were mostly used as shelters by winos, junkies and layabouts each day and the ensuing detritus they created bore witness to that fact: empty plastic White Lightning bottles, used needles, crisp packets, fag packets, dog ends, crushed beer cans, dirty Kleenex, cast-off underpants, condoms and the ever-pervading stench of stale urine.

Good riddance to the pair of shelters and all that went with them!
