It’s been a month since I last posted and I have to say that I’ve enjoyed not blogging. It’s been nice not to have to blog, or to blog about rubbish which no one cares about (okay a few people read regularly, but I was getting bored). I’ve been blogging here for almost four years [...]
I’m going to be developing a new website soon, and let me just say it’s very exciting. I can’t really talk about it at the moment as I’ve still got lots of ideas running through my head and don’t want to commit myself too soon as it might take a while to get off the [...]
The BBC reported yesterday that Marks & Spencer is to begin charging its food shoppers for carrier bags, with customers paying 5p per plastic bag, all of which will be donated to an environmental charity Groundwork which invests in much-needed green spaces in neighbourhoods.
We use an awful lot of carrier bags in the UK, about [...]
I don’t want to be one of those people who will harp on about something but will idly stand-by and not do anything so on Saturday I made my way down to the East Kent Maritime Museum in Ramsgate to show my support and have a look around as I hadn’t been there for probably [...]
On Thursday night I went to the Gadds’ Ramsgate Brewery, and had a most excellent time. I’ve been on a few brewery tours before but I have to say this was the best one and after my post about Thanet going to the dogs it’s nice to actually see a local independant business doing well.

I was on my way home last night when I saw that the whole of St. Lawrence High Street in Ramsgate was cordoned off by police, and I even had trouble getting into my own street, and I wondered what had happened, but luckily (?) my neighbour was there to give me the news, and [...]
Looks like I’m famous. Apparently this is also in the Thanet Gazette.
Better write something good soon then!
I found this story on BBC.co.uk about a very rude receipt some restaurant customers received.
Joe Delucci’s owner Mr Langsdon said the message had been meant to be seen only by kitchen staff and he did not know how it ended up as an item on the receipt.
He said: “That shouldn’t come out on the bill, [...]
I’ve popped into The Sovereign a couple of times over the past month and to be honest it doesn’t have much atmosphere but it is quite cheap, which I guess makes a change from all those Throley pubs which have no atmosphere and are very expensive.
Anyway The Sovereign on Harbour Street, Ramsgate is opererated by [...]
I’ve been playing a fair bit of golf recently and to be honest I’m not very good at it. Still, with the sunny (yet cold) weather we’ve been having, it’s been nice to have a round and get a bit of a walk. I usually play at Stonelees which is only down the road and [...]
