  True Kath, but then again some of us haven't actually been in positions where we had the influence or opportunity to do something about it. I find it a bit rich ex-politicos complaining about the state of the place when it was within their grasp to make it so very different.
  
  In Keith's time the Labour DDC chose to spend hundreds of thousands of tax payers money on roadside shelters for the youths. A failed investment that cost US huge amount of money. Imagine what else could have been done with that investment.
  
  No good crying over spilt milk, but we do have a lot of politicos and ex-politicos contributing on Dover Forum yet none appear to have any sensible ideas of how to rejuvenate the town.
  
  I happen to think the basic premise of Alexander's idea to be a good one. The guy who ran/still runs (Idon't know) Blackfish Academy believed a thriving arts scene would be a big step forward, and he was right. However, little or nothing on the arts front, apart from the Market Square monstrosity, has happened in the last 5 years which is a terrible shame.
