Broken Dreams

I have had a response from the council to my suggestion for Dreamland click here to read my post about it.

Apparently the leader deputy leader chief exec asked Mr Godden and Waterbridge to discuss the matter but they were rejected out of hand.

Due to an administrative error Sandy Ezekiel’s text message about it wasn’t passed on by TDC until today.

“Dear Michael We met with the owners of the site to arrange for temp fair
They turned us down flat This was just B 4 xmas
We are talking with an operator and kcc to see if it is poss to bringa touring F/ground to Margate We will have an idea as to the viability early next week
If any positive news will contact u Best regards Sandy”

I am hoping that the local press will take this one up with the developer.

  1. I overhead some councillors chatting recently, & apparantly Mr Godden said that he'd be willing to rebuild the scenic railways on condition that he moves it to the green on Cliftonville / Palm Bay AND he is allowed to build housing on the dreamland site! They told him no, so he's now doing absolutely nothing apart from letting the site rot away.

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.
