    I remember a letter in the DE about 20 years ago drawing an interesting analogy between Canterbury and Dover.

    it was written by Lorraine Sencicle and at the time communist regimes were falling and Eastern Europe was in the news.

    She compared driving from Dover to Canterbury every day, to work, to going from a communist country to a capitalist one where the people are better dressed, slimmer, happier, healthier-looking and there are nice things to buy in the shops.

    Dover still has more than a touch of Eastern Europe about it, and people resent it. In fact part of me feels angry when I go to Canterbury because the contrast with Dover is so enormous.
