  Given the need for Dover to have more community events, did anyone see the parade or go to the Roman Lawn event?
  
  It was a delight to see such colour in the high street and people enjoying and celebrating who they are, wonderful individuals enjoying life. Dover needs more fun like that.
  
  Let's hope next year's can be bigger and better.

  I know all about what's gone before thank you, I was just trying to comment on something positive that has happened recently in the town, especially involving a wide range of the community, and surprised no one had commented how nice it was.

  No, but Morrissons local FB page have been showing lots of staff pictures using a large Dover Pride picture frame.
  
  Maybe this event will grow into something more impressive than the disappointing carnival parade.

  The Captain is known for being an astute being as he drags his longboat along dank waterways with pride……..it’s the first time he’s mentioned handbags though!
