Presumably someones getting PAID to do these things.<br /><br />A couple of days ago I did a new photoshoot for my 'Naked in Thanet' project. This is now (a) on my main website, including a photo at the top of the main page, (b) on my blog, including some background on where & when this was taken, & (c) at the top of my Facebook group. Now this is just a hobby & not something I make any money out of, but even I can see the sense of covering all bases. Why is it so difficult for TDC get their heads around this too, when using OUR money?Peter Chttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06283534498743254609noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3575321478441277410.post-58715203387521674772011-08-27T11:21:18.368+01:002011-08-27T11:21:18.368+01:00This comment has been removed by the author.Peter Chttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06283534498743254609noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3575321478441277410.post-26734819590159184032011-08-27T09:29:52.013+01:002011-08-27T09:29:52.013+01:00The TDC website isn't there just there for tou...The TDC website isn't there just there for tourism, you cannot expect them to promote EVERYTHING that is happening or they will just be there updating the website constantly. It is the same with 99.99% of other council website as they need to cover their statutory duties and tourism isn't one of them.<br /><br />If I am visiting somewhere I would just google e.g. "Thanet Events" and it will take me to the Visit Thanet where the events are all listed. I wouldn't go to the council website<br /><br />I'm not local and can't see a problem....Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3575321478441277410.post-54681145496214624162011-08-27T08:56:18.422+01:002011-08-27T08:56:18.422+01:00Why are you so amazed.

They also lack foresight and courage.
