Lunch in Brunch and I tried to draw the view towards some
large shop, Nasons I think, the widows upstairs in Brunch have something like
banister rails in front of them to stop people falling out. My excuse is that
they got in the way and made the roof in the middle bent.
The view you actually get (from memory which lies) through the window, looks a bit like this, moving your head from side to side
while sketching means that you can see all of the view, or I suppose you could
be a, realist, purist. What is the word; idiot? And draw the banister rails in
too, I think you would have to shut one eye to do this.
On the Manston Airport front, there is no pwc report
apparently due out by today, there is a new facebook group called Manston CPO
see https://www.facebook.com/groups/ManstonCPO/
sma are increasing their Twitter activity, see https://twitter.com/SaveManston
I guess the problem with social media and using it to get a
point of view over is something along the lines of the old quote about quantum
physics. If you think you understand social media, you don’t understand social
media.
The nub of this is whether social media can be used to
change anyone’s opinion, and I am not sure it can. For people who already have
the same opinion and want to reinforce their opinion by reading stuff written
by people with the same opinion, it’s OK and for arguing it’s OK but on the
whole social media is a form of communication and as soon as you step away from
that the problems start.
I bought a few books for my bookshop
Including some politically corrected Noddies, no golliwogs
or phrases like. “Bigears went out on his bicycle and felt a little queer.”
Useful for the young person with less than £1 to spend though

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.
