Welcome to Doverforum, Ernie, good to have you on board
I love living in Dover, I settled here just over 10 years ago. When I first came over to the UK from Ireland many years ago now, I kept being drawn to Dover, almost like I had lived here before in a past life, if indeed there is such a thing. I love the Castle, the Seafront, the Marina, the White Cliffs and the easy access to the little towns and villages and other seaside resorts not to mention France. With the added bonus of the high speed train I can now whizz into London in no time at all
Unfortunately the town itself lets Dover down, it has been grossly neglected for many a year now, so much so, that when recession hits, it hits Dover harder and brings it to its knees. Such a terrible tragedy that a town like Dover, steeped in history has been let down so badly particulary in my view by Central Government.
As I have said on this Forum many times, whenever anyone asks where I live and I say Dover, I always get a negative response but I love it.
