Photo taken by me - Bognor Regis postcard

Quite a funny postcard called Bognor Regis By Night, and apart from its title it is simply a black painted blank card. Bognor Regis is a British seaside Town hat gets used in many jokes as a supposedly awful place to visit. King George 5th was promised he could go there when he recovered from a severe illness and promptly died shouting Mugger Bogner! (actually a word that starts with B and rhymes with mugger). It was his last words. The card is quite amusing. I have to be fair and say I have never been to Bognor personally. I would go given the opportunity. Arthur Chappell

For a moment I thought it had not uploaded correctly. You should go to Bognor and check how it looks like by night.

@LadyDuck I'd probably best take a flashlight they do have an annual birdman contest where people try to fly off the end of the pier - quite a few injuries over the years

Some towns seem to get a bad reputation and never recover from it.

@JudyEv yes, and it can often be unfair plus the place can change over the years
