Eating at Westwood Cross, Frankie and Bennys, a Sunday ramble.


The moral here is don’t put the food processor bowl on the bottom shelf of the dishwasher, wash it on the top shelf. Hence the shopping mission to Westwood Cross to buy a new food processor.

Anyway a new experience for me, eating with children at Frankie and Bennys, this is next to the Vue Cinema, casino et al.

Two adults, two children, drinks main course and sweets, the meal was good and under £40, I hope the sketch I did there gives you some idea of what to expect.

I think with more practice sketching in public places, I am slowly getting better at it, it certainly keeps me occupied while the children do their eating up, complete the questions in their entertainment packs and so on.


Handy too as you aren’t allowed to photograph Westwood Cross without special permission.

I genuinely wonder if there is any situation where you aren’t allowed to sketch what is going on, anyone know the answer to that one.



I will ramble on.

  2. Would they let you in if you had a photographic memory?

  3. The Newington Clinic in Ramsgate has removed all the disinfecting hand washes and put up a notice saying that this has been done on 'health and safety' grounds.

    To follow this through to its logical conclusion all scalpels should be removed from an operating theatre in case someone gets cut.

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.
