Mal was knee deep in exam moderation parcels and so I went into Margate. We watched a programme last night “Mary Queen of Shops” and it was all about Margate and trying to regenerate the High Street which is full of empty shops, It seems Mary came to Margate last summer with ideas to wake the town up and the first steps to getting Margate to the seaside place it used to be.I have to say it did look busier in the High Street than it was last year and also some interesting market stalls there. Nor did I know that you can get a return ticket from London to Margate for £10!! This is to encourage people to come here. Sadly it doesn’t work the other way round for us. Margate has the Turner Centre now, so should really have a lot going for it.
Later I went up to Westwood to have a look around. I had spent a lot of the day when I was around putting washing out and then bringing it back in again when it started to rain! And again and again!
In the evening we went into Minster to get a take away. The place we usually go to has now closed down and has been replaced by “Sin Le”. We chose Thai to have and it was very good.
