4 September 2011 10:14124605I wonder what the point of the competition is, there is no entrance fee so it is not raising money for charity or itself nor the type of business that will gain more customers. Please don't think I am complaining just curious.
I agree with Bern, I just wish Howard would post more pictures that I knew.

I try to be neutral and polite but it is hard and getting even more difficult at times.
------------------------------------------------------------------- - 4 September 2011 10:20124607thanks for those kind comment, i would have thought the photos would be used as a way of promoting their properties.
normally you just see a photo of an individual flat or house, maybe they will put up the competition photos to give an overview of what dover has to offer?
just a guess on my part. - 8 September 2011 19:26125457Thanks for posting this Roger..next time you're in town pop in for a cuppa !
Greg - 8 September 2011 21:36125485Thanks Greg. Are you working from the Accomm shop now then, or upstairs ?
Roger - 10 September 2011 07:45125687Hi Roger...upstairs ... but only on certain days, give me a shout before coming in ..
- 10 September 2011 17:02125752Hope all the talented photographers here on Doverforum are busy posting their 'genius' pix online as in post #1 from Roger. Well done to our Doverforum advertiser Accommodation Shop, this is a great idea, starting a competition like this for the District and good luck to everyone.
