Glyn Capper raises pheasants and turkeys. Also his rabbits are very good at £3 each compared with Rooks at £9.99.

Lots of stalls this week, but it is cold so they need cheering up by having lots of cutomers buying things.

Simon, I was able to join your band of stallholders & the redoubtable John Angell around midday. Business looked steady & people were coming from the car park to the market. Good range of products . John was telling me most of your stallholders are Dover & Deal based.
Even met the Belgrave sage dreaming along.

Paul, I am very glad you came down, and yes nice Mr Angell did tell us all about your visit. It is hard work, lets hope Dover appreciate it! I guess you have similar private thoughts

Clearly an oversight, just to show that David is human after all. Last one tomorrow, please support it.
Nice Mr Angel, myself and the dynamic Mr Little (you know, the one who is banned from here) had a brilliant meeting with Paul Watkins, Nigel Collor and Roger Walton this morning and I can confirm that the market will be moving indoors to the former Ernest Newson shop in the Market Square from the middle of January. This is to keep the continuity going and to relieve some of the weather misery.
Let it be said loud and clear, DDC and DTC have been 100% supportive of this project. We all need the foot fall in the town centre, Roger Walken's piece in the Mercury talks about it too. Apart from people staggering about with tins in their fists, the town was desolate today. There will be life tomorrow, please come down.
Unban David!

good to see that ddc and dtc get some credit for the success of the market simon could you spread that around to people you know please?
everybody responds better to encouragement as i am sure you as a businessman would be aware of.

I tell anyone who will listen they have supported as much as possible and without the support the market would not have happened.
I still require David to be reinstated, or do I have to take this to a higher level?

Mr. Angel and Mr. Little are not one and the same person then Simon? That's a shame.
Ignorance is bliss, bliss is happiness, I am happy...to draw your attention to the possible connectivity in the foregoing.

Howard, Howard!
All we ask is why? At the moment you are a dictator and that is not nice.
No Tom, very different characters. Mr Angel is a gentleman and can cut people off with an expertly placed withering remark, pure quality. David says what needs to be said, whether it is wanted or not. Bit like me really.
So Howard, you need to tell us why this is a situation, so that we do not all think of you as a dictator. There Howard,that would be nice
