Here is the link to the rest of today’s Ramsgate photos http://www.michaelsbookshop.com/518l/id18.htm
Built at the Lödöse shipyard next to Gothenburg in Sweden in
1939 as a 3-masted schooner with Bermuda rig, used as a sailing cargo vessel. Lengthened
in Bremerhaven, in 1951. Converted to a charter vessel between 1989-1997.
A fair
amount of local history among the books we put out today here is the link to
the pictures of them http://michaelsbookshop.blogspot.co.uk/2018/05/jerusalem-by-montefiore-in-bookshop.html

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.
