A LITTLE bit of Blackpool-style entertainment brought traditional holiday fun to Doncaster Market.

The market place may be better known for its fruit and fish than seaside rock, but visitors were delighted when the famous resort’s donkeys helped to provide some Easter holiday entertainment.
Among the youngest to enjoy a free a ride was Natalie Dolby, aged 19 months, who took to the saddle with a little help from the organisers.
This year’s appearance at the market is the latest of several for the donkeys.

They were also invited to the borough last year and in 2007, getting in a bit of practice before starting the summer season on Blackpool beach.
