MABLETHORPE'S online presence is growing with 26 individual Facebook groups – more than double since we last reported on the site back in February.
Members of the internet social networking site can create groups dedicated to almost any subject which other members can join, upload photos and leave comments on.
One new group is dedicated to local resident Eunice Belgrove, made famous through her appearance on TV game show Deal or No Deal. Eunice won many fans across the Mablethorpe area when she pleaded for a swimming pool for the town on the Noel Edmonds programme.
The Leader featured Eunice last month, but now she has her very own Facebook page entitled: Eunice Belgrove fan club – Deal or no Deal Star Player.
