It's #NationalSeasideDay! Here's a shot of the good people resident in Clacton-on-Sea on Saturday, telling their absent, naturally, MP and his pals what's what ✌🏼
Looking at the beach through a wooden fence. Two people sat on the golden sand and two people walking along the shoreline. Blue skies and sea.
Summer seaside sights 🌊😎

Top tips for keeping cool this #NationalSeasideDay - dressing like a Victorian was never going to be one of them...
Rummaging a little more, this 1960s postcard suggests the Octagon started with a flat roof that has subsequently been converted into the pitch roof. Possibly after the first winter storms. #NationalSeasideDay @seasideferry.bsky.social
A man in a thick plaid shirt coat sits on a bench under the circular canopy of a small beachfront restaurant. He's looking towards the horizon, where the sea meets the sky.
A huge plastic 99 with a flake ice-cream cone bolted to the side of a circular canopy. Beyond it is a glimpse of Edwardian houses and a 1930s seafront theatre.
Since it's #NationalSeasideDay, here's a couple of shots of the Octagon in Exmouth, Devon, taken back in April.

I don't need an excuse to share pictures from my new book on #twentiethcenturyseasidearchitecture but it IS #NationalSeasideDay so it's almost obligatory.

North Pier Theatre (now the Joe Longthorne Theatre) in Blackpool at dusk
Happy #NationalSeasideDay 🏖️
Today we are celebrating a particular type of theatre – the pier theatre
An important part of seaside economies from 1860s but from WW2 many became neglected
There are now only 6 pier theatres left in the UK

How's this for keeping cool on #NationalSeasideDay? Sent in 1913 to Master Hebburn in Shaftesbury Road, London:
Dear Stan, I hope you are going on alright as I am having nice time down at Burnham. I have swam in the river twice so far but shall go in again soon. Your friend Sid.
Happy #NationalSeasideDay everyone!

For #NationalSeasideDay - once again remembering the split-level space station amusement arcade at #BlackpoolTower's #ApolloPlayground - EMI's Robert Nesbitt with astronaut lift operators in May 1970. There must be someone apart from me who remembers it!
For #NationalSeasideDay tomorrow on 1 July, this cover image of SPIDER-MAN in Blackpool reminds me of my own childhood visits to #Blackpool (even if it was a bit misleading) lewstringer.blogspot.com/2012/06/summ...
Getting ready for #NationalSeasideDay on 1 July - this old blog from @lewstringer.bsky.social on Marvelman's visit to #Blackpool - lewstringer.blogspot.com/2014/07/marv...
We especially love seasides and have found many quiet spots to record from, away from the crowds.
The iconic Durdle Door in Dorset is one of our highlights.
