If or when David is re-instated Simon, can you ask him to be less vitriolic - make less personal insults. I appreciate that being a District Councillor will invite many negative comments, but David was well over the top.
I have always made positive comments about the Town Team and the Market - as you said, my last Newsletter of the year, was about shopping locally and supporting the Blue-Birds Market.
Dover District Council have also helped where they can too.

What is the collective for dictators?
A gagle? A shoal? A flock? A nest? A fesneying? A murder perhaps or a scold?

Well you all did miss a chuckle, 3 women, and 3 men versus a tent!
I popped down today, got some last minutes bits and pieces. Fab as always.

19 stalls today Howard, may have looked less because they were laid out differently.
The weather is taking its toll on the poor traders, locals really should get out and support them

i do sympathise with them over the weather, noticed a few tourists having a look around the stalls. the thing is that cruise passengers who do come into town have to go through the market so opportunities for the traders.

Good day for it today.

Why speak in riddles that I for one (and maybe others) do not understand? Why not name names without a "sad" or "LOL" comment for a change?
