  you may be right humphy.
  i always think that the stout yeoman of ye olde margate have a style all of their own.
  
  the ancient craft of having a barney in the street, smashing articles of glassware, has been forgotten in some places.

  Planet Thanet was an island,with the River Stour and the Wansume Channel cutting it off from the Mainland,except the Wansume Channel dried up and Wants some more water
  If you knew what I know,we would both be in trouble!
