Fair old fun

WHEN Southport Pleasureland closed, snobby Sefton Council seemed pleased that a faded fairground, dodgems and fun houses no longer tainted the image of a classic seaside resort. So how delightful to see a travelling funfair occupying this site for the summer. After all, the po-faced Victorians enjoyed fun and frivolity without compromising the resort’s style.
