Interesting. I remember driving home along the seafront near the fair...after a night shift...and watching the council clearing up all the debris from the sewage outlet. Catheter bags, condoms, sanitary towels...etc. So glad we’ve moved on in that direction.
The days when Southport had a sandy beach that people could use for sailing and swimming, before the tree-hugging bird watchers decided it would be better if it was a swamp.
I have the Topaz suite of software incl the Video Enhance AI module. If you would like I could try to do a cleanup on the footage and upscale it. Let me know if you are interested. Ainsdale based.
