Monday and back to work, so Thanet work photos
Not every hole is intentional
The chain at the back suggests this is also towing something else.
This is the link to the work in the bookshop
I think in terms of taking a very big saw and sawing something in half, this has to be one of the the best, perhaps it's some sort of work-to rule. Or perhaps the man inside has been playing the pipes and will be sawn in half very slowly.
In this photo the trouser fashion trend is lead by the horse
I think the men on the right may be inflating the foot of the man on the left
as part of my ongoing how to post stuff this year here is the link to the photos on a conventional webpage better worse any ideas
3 men to push, 2 to supervise, no women involved.
I get the feeling there will be beer later
or now
A reflection on shopwork is that although Ramsgate has its problems, I think Canterbury has lost more conventional retail space to non food tangible goods recently.
although the two signs juxtapositioned are suggestive of a localised problem.
Isn't work supposed to start? Was it this month?

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.
I must first say Happy New Year Michael!!
