Old an new photos of Ramsgate, some sort of apologia for DIY wasit, out and about with me, a ramble…

 Here in Ramsgate the Pav gets more haystack like by the day
 the slipway now changed hands and in action does the big arrow denote some disparate occasion of slippage
 sorry more haystack in my mobile phone



 this is the junction of South Eastern Road and Ramsgate High Street on the occasion of the visit of Princess Louise in 1905

today's sun in the mist
I have been doing some DIY, I think the bookshop building here dates from around 1720 and adding wood preservative to some joists I noticed they are numbered. Back then the carpenters would have been illiterate in terms of the modern world innumerate too, however roman numerals were a different matter then.

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.
