Fun!

With the Boris Bikeathon set to clog up That London, what better time to stay on our septic isle and enjoy all the stuff that's going on here?

Margate's Soul Weekend culminates in tomorrow's carnival, with much of the creative stuff being produced by Ramsgatonians (natch). But I'll be here in the Millionaires' Playground, sporting my captain's hat, brass-buttoned blazer, Whitstable Oyster Rolex and deck shoes with the salty seamen on the front, enjoying some windy fun with the Old Guffers at their 50th anniversary celebrations.

There are probably a squillion other events happening that nobody even knows about!!! So whaddya waiting for? Get out and enjoy yourselves!!!!

Um, I haven't got a visual that depicts 'fun', so here's a photo of Thanet Labour Leader Clive Hart naked instead...

Hartfelt Response

Cripes! One of my moles has just sent me a copy of an email exchange between Thanet Labour leader Clive Hart and Westgate Blue Rinser Brian Goodwin.

Sir Clive, via a round robin email, had asked the Margate Mayor's Parlour (Prop. Mrs Sandy Beach, currently sunning herself on a, er, sandy beach) to include his missus on the mailing list for the Margate Charter Trustees, seeing as she was recently elected to the Dane Valley ward following the resignation of the Tory member for Panama, Steve Broadhurst.

Back came the response from Cllr Goodwin:

great mind you like her other half she will not turn up so we don,t have to worry

Oops! Methinks cllr b goodwin hit the 'reply all' button there by mistake! The white-haired knight has now sprung nobly to the defence of the other half of his Hart to Hart team with a stinging rebuke, viz:

Cllr Goodwin

Thank you for your garbled and virtually incoherent message (below) that you sent to me in response to my perfectly legitimate request for Cllr Sandra Hart to be added to the mailing list as a Charter Trustee.

I believe you owe Sandra an apology for the nasty manner in which you refer to her in your message. Sandra has been a council member for just over a month now and already she has been made to feel very intimidated and unwelcome on two previous occasions. She certainly doesn't need you to add any further to her disappointment.

I personally have very good reasons for not attending Charter Trustee meetings for some time now, ever since I witnessed the disgusting and appalling behaviour of one Trustee at the Winter Gardens. As my wife, Sandra was with me at the time, and she has never received an apology for the disgusting behaviour and appalling language she was forced to witness and hear that was used by a fellow Charter Trustee towards myself and other Trustee's.

The fact is that the 'we don't have to worry' wording that you use in your tiny little message says it all. The Charter Trustee's are supposed to act in a non-political manner but in your haste to discharge your venom your guard has dropped and you've exposed what is now clear for all to see.

Cllr. Sandra Hart may or may not attend Charter Trustee meetings - she has her own mind - please do not attempt to pre-judge her or me!

Regards

Cllr. Clive Hart.

Politics, eh? Doncha just love it!

Labour Goes Hart To Hart In Dane Valley

As exclusively predicted here on the island's premier blog, lovely Labourette Sandra Hart, wife of equally lovely Labour leader Clive Hart, has romped home to victory in the Dane Valley by-election precipitated by the absence of the previous Tory incumbent, Panama Steve Broadhurst. Click here for more.

The support of this blog no doubt played a major role in securing Sandra's seat, and stuffing the Tories into third place. Let's hope the rot has now well and truly set in for the Thanet Reich!

By way of celebration, I offer you this short video insight into Clive and Sandra's glamourous, crime-busting, Thanet lifetstyle which they allowed me to film earlier in the week. Enjoy!
