  Was wondering what was going to happen to the White Cliffs Gallery. Its in a good spot what with the market and whathaveyou operating now. A busy spot but will there be a bump up in rates. One of the problems these small businesses have is the cost of rates here in central Dover, as I seem to remember that was what the owner of the gallery said when she departed.

  higher rent too paul, but i think they are making the right move.
  
  you mention the proximity of the market but also the cruise ship passengers that home in on the curiosity shop nearby.

  The lady running the shop is very friendly, and trying to make a go of it.
  I wish her well
