01/10/08 - The east coast is a depressing dive!
Published Date:

EDITOR - With reference to Mr Taylor's letter of September 3. I have a caravan sited at Ingoldmells and have been taking weekend breaks and occasional weekly stays for years now but don't ask me why!
Every time I get to the east coast I feel absolutely depressed. It is a dive!
Usually I stay in my van and read - at least the break affords me a little relaxation from my busy job - until I venture out around the resort or into Skegness town then I'm full of angst.
Dog mess everywhere, litter everywhere, run down buildings, ancient attractions, and one wonders why we venture abroad.
There is no comparison, the traditional British seaside town is dying and I am sick to death of the same old this and the same old that. Old, decaying, and dying is how I see the east coast.
Traditionally the working classes holiday destination - it has never tried to change that image has it!
