It's Bank Holiday Monday but what has happened to the traditional seaside fights between Mods and Rockers?

When I was a kid and Quadrophenia was released it saw a resurgence of this holiday away day fisty cuffs, but with punks taking over from the Rockers as the traditional foe.

Do they still go to the seaside but use motorbility scooters instead now, or pop down to B & Q along with the rest of the nation?

Has another English traditional died, along with burning witches and use of the ducking stool?
