- 16 March 2008 19:48393Jean and I went to the Travel and Tourism show - very well organised and well supported - from an exhibitor and visitor point of view.
We were there quite a while as I went to talk to many of the exhibitors - mostly cruise companies and cruise travel-agents about having more Dover information on their respective web-site.
Well worth the visit, just from this point of view and it has given me some work to do this coming week.
So many people (exhibitors, not just the public) can't believe how badly Dover is marketed and how little benefit we actually get.
