    Next it will be those fudge shops I see at many seaside places, all selling the same pre-packaged stuff produced on an industrial estate elsewhere in the UK. Probably up north where the only seaside the locals see is on the packaging they're fudge packing. Their management class it as a perk of the job to take their minds off their grim locality.

    Strangest souvenir seaside shop I saw was at Newquay quite a few years ago where they had a shop selling nothing but those meerkat dolls from the insurance adverts. A real WTF moment, obviously failing to see the connection between them and the seaside tourist desire to buy crap souvenirs. Fortunately it doesn't seem to have caught on as the shop has long since gone and not seen one anywhere else.

    I saw someone had started a company that sends postcards custom printed from your phone / social media account. At £3 a pop someone reckons there's a program
