    Good point, Howard. The Open Golf in 2011 will be another great opportunity to provide a warm welcome to visitors from throughout the world. Perhaps the powers-that-be could get together and invest in a row of flag poles (as they do with state visits on The Mall) that could fly the Union Flag and the flag of visiting nations from cruise ships, and the competitors in the Open Golf.

    I hope someone can pick up the work that Roger had initiated. I genuinely believe that although the season for cruise ship visits is limited (peak season: May to September for Northern Europe cruises), this is a major opportunity for businesses in Dover, retailers and suppliers alike. There needs to be a much greater degree of partnership between port and town to realise the potential so that retailers now which ships are visiting, and any opportunities that this may provide. Improving our civic pride in the "look and feel" of the welcome to Dover, events and promotions are really important.
