AS DAWN stirred in Southport during the early hours yesterday, there were few signs of life.
The newsagent taking in his morning newspapers, the milkman ambling around town with his deliveries - oh, and a team of morris dancers and a crowd of well-wishers celebrating May Day before enjoying some great treal ale and bacon butties at the Scarisbrick Hotel.
The May Day ceremony, which heralds the Scarisbrick Hotel beer festival, has become something of a tradition in Southport, welcoming in the Summer.
Let’s hope, after the downpours of last year, they bring Southport - with some exciting events planned over the coming months - some better luck with the weather this year!
