15:1614117And how clean the fencing once looks. I wonder if we could prevail upon them to give it a second coat of paint?
Politics, it seems to me, for years, or all too long, has been concerned with right or left instead of right or wrong.

15:4914123The "Redevelopment Coming Soon" hoarding must surely be due for a listing. My money's on Grade II at least, or maybe a nomination as a UNESCO World Heritage site.

16:0314126Andrew how right you are even when a old comes down like the bus depot place what goes up but a fence that is is OK but no one working on that site so just like all the others the fence will stay for years we are just geting like an old fort with a fence all around it

10:3314240i think you will find that the Folkstone one is doing O.K. and you do see alot of Dovers public over there, me for one but closing down no to that it is not, as for dover you will have to aske Mr walkins that one but i hope it will come and come soon it would be a uplift for the town and means more jobs and public coming into the Town.

13:5414251They were talking about the owner of Bouverie Place selling the whole site as opposed to Asda, apparently there are a lot of smaller units that have been vacant since opening....
