The Salcombe Town Regatta is held yearly in the small town of Salcombe in Devon famed for its local crab and popular with holiday makers. The week long town regatta includes many traditional seaside events such as a sandcastle competition, spot the bloomer and a very popular firework display usually on the penultimate day of the event. My video (filmed from South Sands beach just outside the town) affords the viewer an alternative angle on the 2013 display with Salcombe castle silhouetted against the bright colours of the display.

A selection of VW Camper Vans (and their owners) meet at the Scarborough Surf Festival. The Campers where lined up along the seafront with a selection of colours, designs and types each one reflecting its owners personality. The backdrop of waves and professional surfers competing completed the scene as the public got the chance to examine every inch of the well loved vans.

End of the Line - The Last Night of the Classic Blackpool Trams, details the end of the Blackpool Tramway in its current form. The 6th November 2011 saw the end of the Blackpool tramway. As part of ongoing work on the famous seafront the tramway and its trams are due to be replaced by newer more modern variants, So against the backdrop of the famous illuminations the classic trams had one last night of operation before returning to the depot destined to end their days in rail museums and scrap heaps.

Blackpool Illuminations is a short film featuring a short part (around the Blackpool tower area), of the millions of lights that line the road during this event each year. The Blackpool Illuminations are an annual Festival of lights ,first held in 1879 they are held each autumn in Blackpool on the Fylde Coast, Lancashire.The display runs the length of the Promenade from Starr Gate at the south end of the town to Bispham in the north.In 2011 the Illuminations run from 2 September to 6 November.

2010 is the 125th anniversary of Blackpool's famous electric trams - one of the very first in the world and the first in the UK. Various events took place to celebrate the fact including an Anniversary Week from 23 to 29 September. My video from the 26th includes a visit to the tram depot and various trams running along the famous seafront. For more infomation on the weeks events see http://www.blackpooltramevents.co.uk/ Tweet
