Why are you so negative Brian ? have you heard something definite about Dover losing cruise ships next year and after ?
I heard yesterday that Chatham is going to start and try to woo cruise ships there; we'll (DHB) need to work harder to keep them here and give the passengers a bit more support in what to see and do here.
I have also heard that the tour bus that picks up passengers from the cruise terminal(s) and brings them to the Market Square and Dover Castle, is now selling tickets to Dover Castle, so the majority of his passengers go up there and as there is so much to see, they can spend all day there and not come in to Dover - at all.
This may be good for the bus owner (I know who it is and it shows great enterprise) but it doesn't help the town's businesses or attractions; in fact I would say it is detrimental to the Town - great for the Castle though.
