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 could say that covering the hole was a Health and Safety issue, as they would be responsible for intrepid photographers and booksellers falling into it.
ReplyDeleteBut looking at the tangled heap of rubbish on site, more likely they are setting a trap for intruders.
Readit I find now when I walk onto a building site the ordinary blokes working there say, “hey what do you think you are doing” I say “I’m Michael” to which they reply, “do you take sugar”
ReplyDeleteToday the word over a cuppa was, “never seen so many of them council blokes looking at a wall”
About bally time too, Michael! The 'council blokes'should have taken a keener interest in the cliff face before spending £1,000,000 of tax-payer's money on it and then finding that all was still not well.
ReplyDeleteThe site is like a rubbish tip - doesn`t look professional.
ReplyDeleteI would have thought that when the new block work on the curtain wall was completed and the scaffold was still there they could have sprayed it to match the existing colour scheme,I supose that would have been to easy,they will probably pay another contractor to do it later.

I am appalled by the state of the site, I have seen Gypsy sites tidier. If I was Cardy I wouldn't want my name on these picture as it hardy instils confidence in them.
ReplyDeleteI just thought maybe when the HSO come out they will close it down as an unsafe fly tip.
