EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from 1965, we witness the extraordinary sight of Mr Leslie Johnson confidently riding his horse "Lady" into the bustling bar of the Fox and Goose in Southport, Lancashire. A local nightclub owner with a penchant for adventure, Mr Johnson had just triumphed in a bet and arrived to collect his prize - a £10 cheque made out to Sunshine Homes for the Blind. The image captures both amusement and awe as patrons raise their glasses in disbelief at this unexpected spectacle. The atmosphere is filled with laughter and camaraderie as onlookers marvel at this remarkable display of equine audacity. It's a moment that perfectly encapsulates the spirit of fun-loving Lancashire. This snapshot from the past not only showcases an unusual event but also highlights Mr Johnson's charitable nature. By donating his winnings to Sunshine Homes for the Blind, he demonstrates compassion towards those less fortunate than himself. With its vibrant colors and timeless charm, this photograph transports us back to an era when life was simpler yet full of surprises. It serves as a reminder that sometimes it takes daring acts like riding your horse into a pub to bring joy and laughter into people's lives – even if just for one unforgettable evening.
