as before there are over 500 in this first batch so it will be sometime before they have all published on the internet.
Just one other point, breakfast sandwich (bacon, egg and sausage) and a cup of coffee at the Lookout Café there, total cost £2.50.
Entrance to this event is free, so all in all a pretty cheap day out including food and drink.
Another page of pictures at http://www.michaelsbookshop.com/bs2010/id8.htm a big one I think.
Even more pictures at http://www.michaelsbookshop.com/bs2010/id9.htm no idea why the first few are so small
My children now have cameras and their perspective is a little different click on the link for an eight year olds view of the bucket and spade run http://www.michaelsbookshop.com/bs2010/id10.htm
Yes twins so this is the other ones view http://www.michaelsbookshop.com/bs2010/id11.htm

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.
Thankyou Michael, obviously a well supported event.
ReplyDeleteWhy did you take over 500 pictures? Too many to click on to be bothered with.

The 'Lookout' is the best value in town.
ReplyDeletePleasure Pat M, I reckon at least 5,000 people.
ReplyDeleteBen Kelly, closer to 1,000 I think on eight pages, that is eight clicks on a link and seven on the back button, I suppose the answer to your question is because so many people look at them.
John, it is truly amazing, they don’t skimp on the quantity, I have to admit that I opted to pay an extra 30p for a half pint mug of coffee in instead of the cup that was part of the £2.50 deal.
exellent as usual Micheal thank you and the twins are better than a lot of adults so well done to them both
