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.
Thanks for those photos, my mum and dad had one of those chalets (for lack of a better term) in that block during the 70s and we don't have a single photo. It's hard now to realise they ever existed.

Mick strange isn’t it anything remotely connected with tourism seems to be a target, the road here was quite wide enough for vehicles to get to the port. Anyway I’m glad you liked the pictures and I believe there will be some more.
ReplyDeleteHope there are some more, I would be particularly interested in pictures of the motorcycle racing that I seem to remember taking place along the under cliff back in the 60s, if only to prove it did happen.
ReplyDeleteThanks for a great site I spend ages perusing the pictures.
