Reaction to Sunny Prestatyn

In the first stanza we see the idealised vision of a dream holiday location 'hotel with palms' and 'a hunk of coast' displayed on a poster with a girl advertising 'Sunny Prestatyn'. 
However, in the second and third stanza, we see how the poster, mainly the woman, has been a victim of sexist vandalism. Even though the language used is quite light hearted, in the Third stanza we see something darker, that the vandal is proud of his work, even autographing it for everyone to see. This shows that the person who has defaced the poster thinks it is funny to do this, willingly displaying his misogynistic views.
