A few pictures and thoughts

The pictures are of walking to and from the Pleasurama site to take the pictures of the cliff condition on Saturday. One of the lenses I was using came to pieces in the middle of this and I had to stop and repair it so there are probably some pretty strange ones.

Here is the link to the pictures http://www.michaelsbookshop.com/laptop2/ and I will add to this post as the day progresses.
I don’t get much chance normally to get out of the shop in the middle of the day on Saturdays and it was interesting to see how many people were about.

I have reached another of those watersheds with Pleasurama the two main cliff safety issues the bulge above the site and the problems at the top of the Marina Esplanade incline are in my opinion so dangerous that public safety is involved here and now.

The issues of what will happen when the building work starts in 2011 will have to go on the back burner for a bit and I have to decide how far to take these major safety issues.
It is though a question of how far to go, particularly in terms of naming individuals concerned, when I publish their responses.

  1. Michael you seemed to be stymied at every turn by TDC, is it something that can be reported to the HSE. For the roadway is that not KCC's highway departments responsibility rather than TDC's?

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.
