The town was so busy 'In the Good Old Days', that the Council went round the Council Housing Estates, asking if they had a room available to let holiday makers stay, even though it was against the Tenancy Agreements to take in Lodgers. Many Visitors slept in schools / halls etc. My parents let my room and I slept in a Tent in the garden, or in the loft if the weather was too bad. Some visitors came back year after year and became family friends.
