  • An elderly couple sit in peace on a quiet beach in the seaside resort of Great Yarmouth, Norfolk. In a classic English beach holiday scene, the husband and wife relax, reclining in a pair of deckchairs at a kiosk that dispenses these quaintly British beach chairs. A sign telling other holidaymakers to collect and pay for their time in them appears on the freshly-painted clap-board wall. As the lazy completes word puzzles in her magazine, the gentleman reads his regular copy of the Daily Mirror tabloid newspaper. He is tanned, perhaps spent his summer tending his garden back home but here on holiday, they both have the chance to spend some time together away from home, in a resort known for its beaches and coastal adventures.

  • Watching live TV coverage of Equestrian events, Swedish spectators and other sports fans sit in summer deckchairs at the old Royal Naval College, Greenwich on day 4 of the London 2012 Olympic Games.

  • Holidaymakers are seated in deckchairs on the North Pier at Blackpool, England. As a man in the back row drinks deeply from a can and a lady next to him looks intently at life to the right, a more eccentric woman sleeps with a lacy handkerchief stretched across her face, pinned inside her sunglasses. Looking very English with embroidered or printed pattern of flowers. This northern seaside resort in the north-west of England is diverse in its transient holiday population whose behaviour can be routinely odd. Blackpool is the largest resort in the north of England and visited traditionally by working people from industrial towns and cities during the industrial revolution.

  • Four water-logged deckchairs have been abandoned on a wet Brighton's East Pier in East Sussex. It is Spring but the rain has driven away holidaymakers from this desolate and depressing spot from England's South coast seaside resort. We see a gloomy, grey sky and empty horizon with neither people, nor water activity but the stripes of the railings are echoed in the reflective wooden planks on this Victorian-era pier and of the fabric on the deckchairs. We wonder who might have sat on these chairs and where they might be now?  This landscape might be the antithesis of a holiday poster that repels rather than attracts tourists to this location.

  • As if separated by many decades, we see an older generation beach guard from a bygone era and a much younger lifeguard, both resting on the seafront of the posh Essex seaside town of Frinton-on-Sea, England. If simply comparing the colour schemes of the past, to the modern day, we might guess that in the gentleman on the right's day, people wore more formal blues, with collar and tie and polished shoes on the hottest day - reminiscent of Victorian times when pomp and tradition rather than practicalities were important . Nowadays, complimentary reds and yellows adorn the uniform of the lad trained in water injuries and life-saving. He is barefoot and sits comfortably against the sea defence wall in peak cap and t-shirt. This is a scene describing the generation gap, of youth versus experience - the classic English seaside holiday.

  • Beneath an ugly breeze block concrete wall, a couple are enjoying their holiday in the English seaside town of Paignton, Devon. Sitting in striped deckchairs they are both curiously touching their own genital areas between their legs, perhaps both scratching an itch. The lady in sunglasses wearing a floral dress on the left looks guilty while her topless male partner appears more amused by the interruption. In this depressing corner of Paignton, also called the English Riviera, the grey construction behind them is a grim reminder of what it is often like to holiday in one's own home country where few exotic luxuries are found. Such squalor is unfortunately common around the UK and a reason why people take their vacations abroad. Even the grass below them is bare with weeds growing and soil at the foot of the wall.

  • A lone pensioner sits in one deckchair among many before an outside concert at at Kenwood House, North London. Set in leafy grounds beside Hampstead Heath, these grounds  were remodelled by Robert Adam between 1764 and 1779. English Heritage host Summer concerts here and families and music fans spend war summer evenings listening to opera, classical or series of themed performances by visiting artists and groups. Here is also the source of one of London's lost rivers, The Fleet which rises here and flows downhill into the city where it becomes part of the sewer system, emerging in the Thames at Blackfriars.

  • A holiday couple sit in deck-chairs to enjoy their chips wrapped in paper, the traditional way for eating fish and chips while at the seaside. The people scoff their food as a seagull stands patiently on the promenade wall waiting to scavenge from anything dropped or left behind. The bird's razor-sharp beak will cause injury and distress so the couple eat quickly before moving on.
