We traipsed on down to Devon for a week - and a splendid sun burning, clotted cream OD'ing, west country ale supping time was had.
Much '2 penny' and '1 penny' spending joy was had on Teignmouth traditional pier (which isn't one of those huge Weston Supermare smoldering affairs), of which was furnished with traditional arcade machines built by companies in Broadstairs and Ramsgate. Shame there isn't space in Margate for such a similar affair which would benefit local companies, peoples and visitors????
(Go on - click each image to divulge your self in enlarged Devonian delights! No? Oh please yourselves )

We traveled to the big smoke of Londinium. Not usually for the likes of us, but they let us past the barriers and we were left to our own devices on the streets, (which are in fact NOT paved with gold!?)
What joy and unimaginable fun we had, 3 days stuck in the Earls court exhibition space, with wretched tea and scolding paper cups.
Back in Margate a feeling of serenity flooded over us and our woes were lifted as we parked outside our humble abode, and gazed at the side of my newly keyed car. Theres no place like home......

As another fire consumes a beautiful building in Margate, we should consider active pride of our heritage, our architecture and our surroundings, and we should feel sad and let our anger at this pointless destruction fuel action to preserve that which should not be lost.

Yes my dearios we had a 'Fun Fair' arrive on the square last week for a three day extravaganza, to celebrate the opening of the new library???Mmmm.As you can see it was well attended by the ride operators and council workmen.
I was told by a nice lady from the council that the fair was for children and that we didn't have to worry about anti-social behavior, drunkenness etc. This was being encouraged and supported by the game/stall holders, where their main prizes for knocking something off something or hooping a hoop around a something was bottles of booze. (you can just make out the bottle shapes on the last image - give it a click)
Great prizes for 'the kiddies', get em started young.....
