RAF Ready For Take-Off In Thanet!

Before all you planespotters out there start getting over-excited and fiddling with your joysticks, I'm talking about the first ever Ramsgate Arts Festival.

The delightful Harriet Jump-Jet (Now that's just silly - Ed.), co-proprietor of the island's premier restaurant here in the island's premier town, is planning the shindig for the end of August and has asked the island's premier blog to rally the troops. Or is that ground crew? Er, ahem, well anyway if you're interested in getting involved and demonstrating that Ramsgate still has a thriving arts scene, despite cynical attempts to syphon off all the money and resources to the seedy north side of the island, then get along to Age & Sons for 6.30pm this Tuesday 17 March. The meeting will be upstairs in the restaurant.

Margate is the centre of Arts here matey. You Ramsgate types are villanous crooks and wobbers.

Too right.

But it may be worth noting that Margate is merely an anagram of Art Game, whereas Ramsgate covers the lot with Art Games!

I think, in this case, your 'too right' makes a wrong.

Will there be free drinks at this meeting? I'm not a big art fan myself, but I do like free drinks!

That's not a Harrier. It's a Eurofighter. Don't you know anything?

Drinks have been mentioned, yes.

And of course it's a Eurofighter. Kuh, these planespotters can be right pedants, can't they!

...and 13 other Ramgate Arts Festivals? They must have been so well publicised I've never heard of them! If you've got a copyright on it take it up with Harriet J-J!
