I spotted this lot assembled in front of the pier this morning so I decided to investigate & take a few shots. It was like being transported back to the '60s. Lots of Who logos, tassels, whippy aerials, Union Jacks & goodness knows what else. It seems the old "Mod" culture is alive & well. Better watch out Foz. They might be headed up your way. Shocked Grin

PS. Only joking. I had a chat with some of them & they seemed a jolly nice crowd. It was nice to see lots of old fogies just like me with glazed looks in their eyes reliving their memories. Happy days indeed. Wink

Fozzer wouldn't be seen dead on it. He is a Rocker & these are Mods. Deadly enemies they are. Did you never see the film Quadrophenia? Shocked

I have a feeling that with a few pints in him, we could at least get him to "mount up" for a photo!
