Has the world gone mad?
It certainly has MD. I remember around 1965 my father in law declining an offer to buy one at Seasalter for £150. If I had a crystal ball I would have bought the whole row. :lol:

I wish we had them here. The gov't owns the beaches so they'd be extremely easy to erect and manage and I'm totally sure people would buy them seasonally or rent them monthly and, IMO, they definitely do add color and interest to the beach front.
