Cleethorpes, Lincolnshire, UK
Cleethorpes is not a glamorous place
You’ll never see a famous face
No swanky yachts or cruise ships here
No sipping champagne just swilling beer
But in the morning with the early tide
It’s a place to go and photograph with pride.

That silver sea is really quite something. Great shot. Tell me you took it.

Cleethorpes is where Grimsby Town play football, so theoretically, with a bit of luck in the draw for the FA Cup, Manchester United might be there next January. You’ve got a couple of rhymes for “Rooney” but “van Gaal”?

I am not sure Cleethorpes could cope with all of those MU supporters.
I am a Leicester fan, this time last year I was in Turkey and I went to a bar to watch city play united. When I arrived things were going badly, Leicester 1, Manchester 3 and some rowdy United fans were celebrating already and punching the air in ecstasy and in anticipation of more goals. I sat down discreetly to watch the slaughter. Suddenly, Leicester 2, Manchester 3 – Leicester 3, Manchester 3 – Leicester 4, Manchester 3 and finally Leicester 5, Manchester 3 – The very satisfying final score.

I like it spelt that way – rhyms with more words and yes, all my own work!
