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.
I've seen bigger ones on Victoria Parade.
ReplyDeleteBut these are small compared with whats been dumped on us by Ladyman et all
ReplyDeleteIt certainly adds an aspect to hosting modern art exhibitions that hadn’t occurred to me, yet I don’t suppose the damage came anywhere near to the cost of M&S to TDC anyone know who owned the building when TDC bought it?
ReplyDeleteOh this ones too easy Micheal
ReplyDelete53,55,57 High Street and 10,11,12 Cecil Square (CT9 1 DY)
Transfer dated 29 March 2006 between GEP (South) Limited and Thanet District Council
Price stated £4,500,000
However don't ask me who GEP are, as TDC cannot even answer that one?
It is a Swiss company speciaizing in inflatable giant erect penises.
ReplyDeleteOne of these products some years ago brought down a power line whilst still tethered to the ground.
The temporary power cut to a nearby industrial estate disrupted toblerone production.
The local newspaper questioned "Why make such things that are anyways too big for the mouth"
How the Swiss laughed.
They were rolling about.
Hope this is helpful
Hello Rick
ReplyDeleteNot another D.F.S sale!!
ReplyDelete"Sandy hold hands with Bob Geldof there for a photo shoot and cop hold of this long copper flex attached to a giant inflatable poo. Yes by the pylon there would be good. Sets you off nicely"
ReplyDelete"No no Sandy I am using the zoom that is why I am a hundred yards away mate."
"Yeah yeah looking good step forward together hand in hand and splash in that puddle next to the pylon"
"Why is the poo wrapped in bacofoil did you say Sandy ? Promotional stunt OK"
"Now we're releasing the poo mate just hold on to your flex there Sandy .... and smile"
When I read the headline, I thought for a moment that one of the bands at folk week had caused an upset!
