Some old Ramsgate pictures, lots of local history books put out in the bookshop and for some reason Peppa the Pig.










I think the old Ramsgate pictures are fairly well described in the text on them, pictures should expand if clicked on a couple of times

A busy day in the bookshop today, as is often the case a lot of local history went out on the shelves, here is the link http://michaelsbookshop.blogspot.co.uk/2017/06/tunnels-in-bookshop.html

As you see business on the Peppa the Pig front has also been brisk.

On the whole Peppa customers are easier to deal with than local history customers who failed to come into the bookshop and work back through the Ramsgate street directories, so didn’t realise their street had been renumbered, so have actually been researching the history of someone else’s house for the last five years.

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.
