Some Old Ramsgate Pictures + one of Draper’s Mills in Margate and a ramble, mostly painting in Canterbury

Saturday for me was pure self indulgence, so first I went to Canterbury Cathedral, I have to admit that I find advent one of the hardest of the Christian festivals to get my head around. 
The whole concept of a pregnant teenager wandering around a country showing proof of her virginity to various religious types being a long way from anything I can imagine.


The craft of the medieval masons is much more my type of wosisname and I spent some time sitting in the nave paintin the ceilin.



On to Chocolate café and paintin windows    
The devil is in the detail

 Really to Maude from Ada

Comments, since I started writing this blog in 2007 the way the internet works has changed a lot, comments and dialogue here were once viable in an open and anonymous sense. Now if you comment here I will only allow the comment if it seems to make sense and be related to what the post is about. I link the majority of my posts to the main local Facebook groups and to my Facebook account, “Michael Child” I guess the main Ramsgate Facebook group is We Love Ramsgate. For the most part the comments and dialogue related to the posts here goes on there. As for the rest of it, well this blog handles images better than Facebook, which is why I don’t post directly to my Facebook account, although if I take a lot of photos I am so lazy that I paste them directly from my camera card to my bookshop website and put a link on this blog.
