Which Thanet Pub? The answers to Wednesday's questions and a Ramble from Michael's Bookshop

o

This is the old building, the pub was demolished and rebuilt sometime around 1900.

We were out and about buying books yesterday, lunch in Canterbury 

which usually produces and interesting picture.

I have been at work here at Michael's Bookshop in Ramsgate, pricing Kent local history books today 

Thinking of inflation in the news, as far as I can see reasonably desirable secondhand and antiquarian books priced between about £3 and about £70 published between about 1800 and 2015. which is what these ones in the photo are. I can't see that prices have changed much in the last 5 years. some titles have gone up a bit and some down a bit, but nothing significant.

Here is the link to the pictures of the books we put out in the bookshop today
