This was my first visit to the Ilkley U3A travel group and what a wonderful audience they were. My PowerPoint presentation was 'Postcards from the Past' and was based on the history of the Sunny Vale Pleasure Gardens near Halifax. This was the Lightwater Valley amusement park of the late 19th through to the mid 20th centuries. Many of the audience knew of the place which was regularly descibed as the 'Playground of the North'.
