Lights Out For Summer

Apologies to Alice Cooper, but I'm sure that's what he would have sung if he lived in Ramsgate and saw that there's only one of the attractive blue lights working in the arches on Royal Parade.

If you need confirmation, Little Weed has quite fortuitously provided the evidence in a picture of her big night out during the Powerboat Weekend.

I've been on to Scottie, that chap with dilithium crystals in his jocks, and he's passed on a request for one of his engineer colleagues to look into it.

Let's hope it's not the one who beams down with Kirk, Spock and the rest of the gang, only to be eaten by an alien resembling a rubber fried egg within the first two minutes.

The Uranians now look after all lighting of the decorative variety.
The message was duley passed but they might need a kick up their Uranuses. As sometimes happens with large orgaisations messages get misslaied or overiden when the next priority message comes in.It often gets quite hectic.
It happens to me sometimes. You can log a fault on their web site

I did notice, and it was commented on the night.

It's a shame that they were out on one of the busiest, 'showcase' weekends of the summer.

I visit this blog from time to time to time looking for a sign of some redeeming lights, light fittings or lamposts from its author but sadly I can find none!
