What a jolly day. First sign of sun and we were off to Ramsgate. We filled our bellies aplenty at Churchill's tavern. Fantastic home made burgers, and a view out of the window over Ramsgate harbour. Here we are outside the tavern, full up and ready to rock up to the beach. Look at the harbour, there was some right grand boats in there. Here is a picture of humum's mum Joanie, friend Brenda, and sister Jeanie on the self- same promanade, but in August 1950. They were off to the pavillion to Jive with the American soldiers. Naughty girls. We ran our skinnydogs legs all the ways to the beach, and we went allowed on. Bet it wern't like that in 1947 when this photo of Joanie, her dad Alf, Mum Daisy adn sister Jeanie was taken, They had a blue roan cocker spanial called Bimbo and he had just popped off to get the ice-creams in when this was taken. We visited our friend in Van Gogh's house in Ramsgate, and partook of tea. Joanie's auntie Margie still lives in the house Van Gogh stayed at in Brixton, but thats another story.
