Under The Pier Show

If you want to see something completely unique, pay a visit to the The Under The Pier Show, on Southwold Pier in Suffolk.

Expressive Photo Booth; walking the dog with the Rent-A-Dog, crossing the road as a zimmer frame assisted granny in the Mobility Masterclass, or having your brain washed in the BrainWasher...
