Joes brother in law Sammy was more often than not to be seen behind the counter. Joe lived in a white bungalow with a blue tiled roof on the Ramsgate road Broadstairs, not far from the Brown Jug, the bungalow was demolished some years ago now. <br />Michael Childhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09499435016469020417noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3575321478441277410.post-12805727058219550152017-09-30T07:01:34.436+01:002017-09-30T07:01:34.436+01:00We have only lived in the area for 5 years.
