1903 Ramsgate pictures, a sketch in The Belgian Café and some sketching in Canterbury, the alternative election special

I started my day off in The Belgian Cafe in Ramsgate with a watercolour sketch and coffee

 Next a few pictures from one of my publications Ramsgate & Broadstairs By Camera & Pen 1904–5 



These should expand if clicked on a bit.

Something to do while waiting for election results.

Here is the link to the books that went out in the bookshop yesterday  

I went to Canterbury today, bought some books and did some more sketching

Still waiting this link takes you to a series of linked pages of photos of Ramsgate in 2011

I may put some more up later or I may go to sleep.

I found another view of the cathedral to paint.

well actually it looks like this with the camera on my phone

this is the same phone with the same camera settings where I am painting the other view of the outside of the cathedral, so very different.

Still waiting for the result? click here to look at all the paperback fiction books in my bookshop

Or you can. What? click here for the pictures of Ramsgate Carnival in 2007

ok I did my best, the bookies still reckon Tory win in Thanet South, and of course Thanet North a dead cert

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.
