Sir – I thought the beach in Skipton Canal Basin was wonderful, and wanted to praise the town council for their efforts.
I hope the success of it will persuade them to do it again.
My children had a wondeful time – and it certainly beats driving in a hot car with them squabbling and asking whether we’re nearly there yet to find the nearest beach.
Of course the weather was a real boon, and it was certainly nice to soak up some sun on the deck chairs provided – even the rather daft giant one.
It was like a little holiday at home. Well done Skipton Town Council – and thank you!
A Childs, Skipton
