Yesterday's house hunt

A trip to Canterbury yesterday, an early start, four houses to see. First one was a bit further out than we first thought, up Whitstable Road, though not an insurmountable distance to Canterbury West. The house is at the end of a cul-de-sac, so you h...

That one's a bit small so we've not been to see it

We did go see a three bed place | Whitstable Road] right across the road from there that was nice, but also a bit small really. That's right on a really busy road and there's no other access to it, so [[http://www.clarkeology.com/m/10835/10835/Today%...

RE: West is best right now too

well i think generally speaking, the victoria trains tend to go from East - that's the line that goes through faversham. still anyway, it's prob much of a muchness until that high speed link goes in. it's a nice train journey as well - some good sce...

Second house-hunting trip around Canterbury

Saw five houses today in Canterbury, have a map with details of the things we saw. Clare's out tonight with Jenny, so it's a prime opportunity for me to do some fiddling about with maps and things, so sorry if it breaks. Not that you'll be on the com...

I'm the walking dude (and so's my wife)

Splendid weekend, thanks for asking, starting off with what's becoming a regular routine; a quiet night in Friday night then a trip to Canterbury Saturday daytime. Had a lovely Wagamama, only slightly marred by me biting through my lip again. In the ...

Look who's stalking now

With massive props to Inspector Sands, this is something I should have done with my very own Stalking Heads a long time ago. I have the powers, I have the spottings, I have the locations, bah, missed the boat a bit there... I could go back and geocod...

RE: Sandgate Hotel is on Ramsay's Kitchen Nightmares tonight

I heard a rumour that Ramsay was actually going to BUY the Sandgate Hotel (or at least the restaurant)... could be Folkestone's "Whitstable Oyster" factor if it went ahead...

Doctor Doctor please

I thought Doctor Who was great this week, a trip back in time to 1869 and Charles Dickens, as played by Simon Callow. We went to his one man show a few years back all about Dickens, funny to see that crossing over with the Doctor.www.scifi.com says B...
