Bon Voyage Jacqui

Our daughter Jacqui is flying to England tonight, where she will be teaching for a year in the town of Whitstable in Kent. It seems a bit strange to me that they've imported a Canadian to teach British Literature and Shakespeare to English kids, but hey - Jacqui's going to benefit from the opportunity, so who am I to complain? I'm really happy for her, and glad that she's going to have more time to...

Another dose of North Kent politics - stop Kingsnorth power station

Just across the water from Whitstable, police were clashing with protestors near to the planned Kingsnorth coal fired power station on the Hoo Peninsula. This links to the BBC report. I have to say the footage doesn't show the police in the best possible light! The police in helmets have distinctive MP markings on the back of their helmets, meaning they were drafted in from the Metropolitan

A dose of North Kent politics

Today, Grace and I took Philippa and a friend of hers to Whitstable. Absolutely lovely spot on the North Kent coast. While walking around the harbour I saw some posters saying "Hands off our harbour" and "Ships not shops". Inquisitive as I am I found this website when I got home. There is a real problem with protecting these communities, and not turning them into some giant museum and souvenir

Somerset 427 & 243-8 Kent 208 & 160-6: Key left holding the baby as Somerset eye top spot

There was drama enough off the field for Rob Key, the Kent captain, who made a 235-mile dash home to Whitstable to be with his wife, Fleur, for the birth of their second child. Back at the County Ground, meanwhile, Kent's chances of keeping the match going long enough for Key to play a further part looked slim.

Taste of Kent

In Sainsbury's today I was perusing the various British beers for sale and came across an "organic Whitstable ale". I am ashamed to say that I'd never heard of it before, despite further investigation finding that it is brewed in neighbouring Maidstone . Anyway, as part of my research I stumbled upon "The Taste of Kent Awards" (also helpfully highlighted in today's Kent on Sunday) and so as a huge...

Now that the tide has turned.

During the night of 31st January 1953 a huge tidal surge devastated large areas of the east coast of Britain with the loss of around 300 lives. One town badly hit by flooding was the place where I now live, Whitstable on the north east coast of Kent. Well last night we were warned to expect a tidal surge of up to three metres coinciding [...]
