  4. Things like this always happen whenever he / she / it runs out of original stories. Quite pathetic really.

  5. I've heard it's something serious this time but then he was dead the other week. It's amazing how many people take ECR seriously when it clearly says 'fiction' on the tin.

  7. ECR goes walkabout from time to time. It is thought he goes in search of some bottle and never finds it

  8. Yeh, bottle of gin probably.

  10. Probably the ferry thing. Shame he's had to do that though as it looks like he was right all along about it not being ready on Saturday

  12. 'Posting defamatory comments', 'caused damage to Euroferries', 'obviously untrue'.

    I'd be careful what you allege there about ECR and Adem, 12:02, or you and Michael might find yourself getting letters too. And it won't be from the director of a company that has clearly failed to provide its paying customers with a service it promised to deliver on 14 November.

    I note that the delay, according to the official press release from Euroferries, was due to 'hampered final stage operations', which has been taken to mean operational difficulties to do with their vessel and the berthing arrangements in Boulogne and Ramsgate, and nothing to do with local bloggers.

    I suggest you delete that comment, Michael (and this one too if you like) and instigate comment moderation. You have been warned.

  13. If these blogs caused the delay then what excuses for the constant delays since the original statement of a March start to the service?

    The problem is that all we are left to do is speculate with very little information coming from Euroferries, the port, TDC, or the local papers and the blogs are the only places where there seems to be any investigative reporting going on.

    If only Euroferries were a little more open then we would all know what was happening.

  14. 12:02 didnt seem to be alleging anything from what i could see from the 10 seconds it was left on- only stating the obvious - which is Euroferries would do wonders for Ramsgate and its economy and im sure people who post adverse comments on blogging sites cant help what im sure is an already hard enough situation to set a service up. I run a restaurant in Ramsgate and when someone writes a bad comment (whether true or untrue) i get a large drop in customers and that has extremely large effects!

  15. mmmm

    Perhaps the anon duo have gone off together as both Yeast Cleft Wretched and Loosely Male have both restricted their blogs.

    Lucy Mail has never mentioned the ferry has it ?

Comments, since I started writing this blog in 2007 the way the internet works has changed a lot, comments and dialogue here were once viable in an open and anonymous sense. Now if you comment here I will only allow the comment if it seems to make sense and be related to what the post is about. I link the majority of my posts to the main local Facebook groups and to my Facebook account, “Michael Child” I guess the main Ramsgate Facebook group is We Love Ramsgate. For the most part the comments and dialogue related to the posts here goes on there. As for the rest of it, well this blog handles images better than Facebook, which is why I don’t post directly to my Facebook account, although if I take a lot of photos I am so lazy that I paste them directly from my camera card to my bookshop website and put a link on this blog.
