Blog from the bookshop and a new food and painting spot in Canterbury


By late morning we had bought the books above for stock in my bookshop here in Thanet, after this I set off in search of lunch, a sketch and probably more books in Canterbury.


My approach is not to read menus but to look at seating in windows that I can sketch from during the lunching process and tucked in the corner of The Buttermarket with this view is The Shakespeare http://www.shakespearecanterbury.com/ with this view.


My first crack at sketching it wasn’t that good



however the pork sandwich £6.95 was very good, so I will be going back there to and perhaps a better picture eventually.


I did buy a few books in Canterbury as you can see



then on to chocolate cafĂ© for tea, well actually chocolate

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.
