I got the distinct impression that Adam will work wherever there is
work. A sort of employment slut.

So he'll work in the North, South, East and West "because that is where

Apart from Medway and Thanet. And Sheppey.



They say Planet Thanet is coming up in the world. Big old houses by the
sea, has to be trendy eventually

Margate is certainly improving in some ways...the Turner Cantre, and
round about, is quite good. But few shops - not helped by the efforts of
that Mary person.

I think any implication that she has made it worse is unfair.

The shops in Margate town centre are ****ed by the Westwood developments,
and nothing short of bulldozing that will improve the town centre.

Margate should accept this, schedule the High Street to be turned into
housing and move on.

Kent is a wonderful place, with residents who are both highly
intelligent and of great personal beauty.

Apart from Medway and Thanet. And Sheppey.

Well, her efforts haven't been that popular.

Perhaps...although it was bad even before Westwood was built.

Does look a mess.

How many potheads does it take to change a light bulb?
Two. One to hold the bulb against the socket, and the other to smoke up until the room starts spinning.

I wasn't aware of that.

I was aware that they were thought to be micky-mouse sticking plaster
solutions, but then what can you do with the piddly amount on offer.

OK now I've found this:

http://www.thegrocer.co.uk/topics/pr...231973.article

Anyhow here's the list of ideas for Ashford, somewhere I am slightly more
qualified to assess:

1.The rebirth of the Town Centre Market.
2.To create a unique covered area for the lower High Street providing a
distinctive place within the town centre.
3.To use new technology to market the town centre, by developing a virtual
tour of the town centre through an innovative website and app.
4.To create a new and compelling Vision for the town centre, considering it
as one centre by characterising zones and roles for its different parts.
5.To generate creative solutions to improve the link between Ashford
Designer Outlet and the town centre.
6.To use the website, app and market to galvanise businesses and provide
income to support the Town Team and management of the town centre.

My comments:

1) OK, but how does a bag of money achieve that. A bigger market requires
more stallholders to attend, and they don't (probably because there aren't
enough shoppers, which is the problem that you are trying to fix!).
2) That'll be the bit of the High Street outside Blockbuster and the Lap
dancing club (at least that's what I assume it is) which is dead during
shopping hours. Well there's a reason for that!
3) WTF!
4) So painting the pavement in different colours (either really or
metaphorically) is going to make a difference is it?
5) They're one and half miles apart, how are you going to do that? There's
already a subsidised shuttle bus and as there are draconian penalties if you
overstay your parking few people are going to park there and then catch the
shuttle to the town centre shops in case they mis-time their journey back
(it's not like there is a shortage of parking in the centre).
6) Wishful thinking!

Maybe the photographer is straight and the street is sloping.

Or the photographer is bent.....

Ten years plus ago I worked as an agency van driver, mainly around
Leicester and the Midlands, bacause that was where ther work was, and
I live in Leicester. One of the jobs was delivering plasterboard and
dry-lining supplies - I found that several Leicester/Midlands dry
lining contractors could bid successfully on jobs in London and Essex
that included delivery of materials from Leicester. I remember taking
the company's 7.5 ton truck into the Excel Centre, which I'd not
previously heard of. Also went to Portsmouth once with that job.
