  The Belgians used to come in droves and Woollies stacked tins of Quality Street in their window to cater for their taste for English chocolates.
  I remember an argument which led to a punch up between some Dovorians and Belgians in the 70s when Tesco was in town. It was at the time of the sugar shortage and the Belgians had decided to buy some which led to this particular display of hostility. I seem to recall there were other incidents of unpleasantness towards the visitors, however, and, once they discovered the train to Canterbury, they opted to go there instead. This was compounded by the construction of Jubilee Way which meant that you no longer had to drive through Dover; and so they didn't!
