Th..."a sort of a midas touch in reverse." That is a hilarious comment, and, unfortunately, altogether too a propos. I really wish the council would just hire a quality <a href="http://www.national-auction.com" rel="nofollow">property auctioneer</a> to get rid of these properties for them so that they can be beautiful and useful once again.Jackhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04730515702335708392noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3575321478441277410.post-58681102363502655782010-07-20T19:27:15.288+01:002010-07-20T19:27:15.288+01:00I'd heard about the ageing slag at Pegwell Bay...I'd heard about the ageing slag at Pegwell Bay before but I thought they meant the nearby "dogging" area!Peter Chttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06283534498743254609noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3575321478441277410.post-32314408741875396132010-07-20T15:29:05.370+01:002010-07-20T15:29:05.370+01:00Two large excavators were seen parked on the hover...Two large excavators were seen parked on the hover pad on sunday.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3575321478441277410.post-52353545330722084662010-07-20T12:15:40.580+01:002010-07-20T12:15:40.580+01:0023.40 I think the problems with the arches stem fr...23.40 I think the problems with the arches stem from the failure to put in a waterproof membrane when the work to strengthen them was done, about 20 years ago I think.<br /><br />I don’t know about the old ice house, but its another one for the list and I will look into it.<br /><br />The hoverport closed years ago and the buildings were demolished, however I believe the hard standing there including the hoverpads that lead into the sea were built on colliery spoil and that there is a pollution issue there.
