  I think it is a bit unfair to compare Dover, a working class town with lots of visitors passing through, with Farnham which is a very upmarket area mainly populated with affluent commuters and retirees. Farnham is leafy, quaint and pretty whereas Dover is all about the stark drama of the castle and cliffs. They are chalk and cheese.
  Having said that keeping the pavements free of dog mess etc should be a major priority for the council
  I find Dovorians very friendly and have often had quite long conversations with people I have never met before. I think Dovorians often have that salt of the earth quality that northerners boast of.
  I don't think the big screen fits in as well in Dover as it does in bigger places e.g. Leicester, just because of its scale next to the surrounding buildings. I don't agree that the market square is as ugly as others have said. If the empty shops could be let it would be transformed. If only there was a way the owners of town centre commercial properties could be persuaded to accept sensible rents the town could be transformed.
