Had to go to Margate today on business, the wife and I,
needing the loo on arrival and were probably the nth inconvenient visitors to
The turner Contemporary, the café there had a queue so we made for The Cup Cake
Café and that was full so tried the Greedy Cow next door.
When in a hurry we tend to be creatures of habit and not
very adventurous, the food was good, proper Coke from a bottle, the wife won’t
entertain a second visit to places that don’t have it either in a can or a
bottle, only Pepsi, Coke from a machine, unnamed cola and it’s no return visit.
Anyway The Greedy Cow passed the tests so we will be
returning there, pot of tea, coke, sliced beef roll thing, burger and salad,
date shortbread afters for me £14.50
The photos are here, only about 90 don’t look at what you
don’t want to http://www.michaelsbookshop.com/laptop412b/id9.htm
The sea defence behind Margate beach is being replaced now,
this is a fairly modern, I would guess around 1960 – give or take about three
years either way - concrete in fairly good order, however The Environment
Agency reckon it needs replacing to protect the lower areas of the town when
there is a combination of a high tide and a storm.
The cost of this work is estimated at £6.2m and will all be
funded by through the national flood budget, there is no cost to the council.
I may ramble on here

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.
