Simon Gardner was enjoying a boat trip at the weekend with his friend and his 16-month-old son Etienne when they were joined by a pod of 'incredibly friendly' dolphins.

Mr Gardner, who owns Shoreham Barbers in the High Street as well as Southwick Barbers and Hangleton Grenadier Barbers, said: "A nice morning with my son Etienne and mate Rick Maxwell turned into an amazing experience as about 10 dolphins joined our trip following us and playing around the boat."
