all this is letting off the powers that be from the issue of the deflowering of dover.

jan;
no one will ever be in any doubt about my political beliefs.
with regard to flowers just look at folkestone/sandgate(under a small parish council) and all the lovely flowers looks so nice, makes people that much more cheerful.

Would take a hell of a lot of flowers to cheer Keith up
but dover is depressing at the moment would be good if everyone came together and helped but wont ever happen

That is really awful, the town centre version of Dover in Bloom.
Oh! I forgot we are getting plants NEXT month at least two months too late.

I've now written to the Horticulture Manager at DDC asking about the flowers - I'll let you know what he says.

It is such a shame such a small costing thing, but makes a place look that much brighter takes so long.

and a small place like sandgate flowers throughout the stretch of sandgate
hythe just as small flowers there to

spotted this trouble maker in the town centre today.
will not give an exact location as we would be invaded by the horticutural equivalent of twitchers.
