Bad Sign

Apologies for the bluriness of this snap, but it's rather hard to focus as you're hurtling down the Thanet Way at a breakneck 40mph in the brand new G-Wiz that you've just picked up from the London dealer, desperately looking for a power point to plug into in the next three miles.

Anyhow, have you spotted the deliberate error in this new tourist sign yet? No? Well I'll tell you then. According to my copy of the Highway Code, that 'M' next to Margate denotes 'Museum'. And as we all know, the council closed Margate's museum a while ago. So now we have a new, out-of-date sign which replaces the old, out-of-date sign which directed everyone to the closed/burnt out Dreamland. Kushti!

What a complete bunch of (very highly paid) duffers.

According to 'Dr' Moores, they're the best performing (very highly paid) duffers though.

Any comment, 'Dr'?

Richard, an electric car then, pass the pollution on to Norway or |Sweden, Hydrogen cars are the answer, (fueled of course from the 'hot air' from some of the thanet blogerrati.

I'd be happy to pipe the farts over from, er, some of the bluer blogs around here. Maybe once the G-Wiz has conked out (by next Wednesday I'm predicting) I could look into it!

Better wear a gas mask when you do - look into it I mean!
