The maritime museum is holding a steam event, on Sunday 26th and Monday 27th, arranged by the Steam Museum Trust and happening at Pier Yard and the on the crosswall. It will feature several visiting vessels, S.T. Cervia in steam, various steam engines, cars, etc and a fairground.
The pictures are of steam preparations.
Note the carousel, it is one of the best in the UK and
I believe the only one with bears, note the carved running board, the names on
the gallopers will be those of the showman’s family.
I did manage to skive off work in my bookshop for a short
time today and take some pictures of activities in the vicinity of the harbour

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.
