    Thank you Peter for missing me. I have been around you know, just a tadge busy and finally qualified as a teacher at the end of 2011.... Only to be made unemployed. Obviously too expensive now I'm qualified I suppose. Still looking for a job as well to date. However, my time has been spent wisely continuing the research of the history of the public houses in Dover and district. Most mornings spent in the library wading through the microfilm.

    Anyway, regarding reference to the Hope inn from Kath Hollingsbee, this is the first reference I have seen regarding it being called the Paris Tap, so that is very useful information, but the Hope Inn was situated at 2 Great Street later to be named 15 Council House Street. The Paris Hotel being at 91 Snargate Street, but very often taps to hotels weren't connected to the same building. So I still don't know about this building. I have reference to the Hope Inn as late as 1913, with any luck I'll find reference to this changing name of closing in the papers of that year. Till then the research continues.

    As of the premises, I wish the new owners all the very best of luck in their trade.
