    If none of you know Dover's legends, then I suggest that you attend my talk on the subject.

    Besides dismissing an important legend that has been around since the 14th century in Dover's history, next you will be telling me that there never was a Battle of Barham Downs or that Malory never mentioned Sir Gawain's head in Dover Castle - actually St Mary-in-Castro?

    Dover's history is pure magic - it goes back further than any other place in this country. Besides the Castle and Western Heights, we have the Roman Painted House, the Classis Britannica; buried remains all up the Dour valley. We also have legends ... they are an important part of our history. So important that we should be capitalising on them.

    Instead, what do we have - charlatan derision and ridicule.

    When will people of this town wake up and utilise our assets?????
