Why Hide Thanet Pride Thanet District Council

Once again a major local event partly sponsored by Thanet District Council and nothing on the council website.

I have contacted all the usual candidates at the council bur don’t expect much.

Update, many thanks to Dr Simon Moores who managed to find it on one of TDCs websites that is hosted by a private company, it’s nearly as bizarre as the TDC planning site.

It lists Ramsgate as only having one shop “Ramsgate Town Partnership” it lists Margate as having 10 shops I haven’t been there for a while so this may be accurate.

Here you go http://www.visitthanet.co.uk/ see if you can find the link to Thanet Pride.

    Don't worry Thanet's premier blog the one with "Bignews Margate" in the title has endorsed this years event once again, as I did last year, and hope that its well attended as it was last year.

    Its events like this that create business for the local community probably more so than the Big Event which does nothing to encourage visitors to the area. Well done to those who've organiside it.

    Well spotted Simon, what with one thing and another we could run a competition along the lines of where have TDC hidden it on their website.

    Is this a TDC website? Does it cost us much?

    It seems to rate Thanet Pride well below belly dancing classes.

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.
