    Picked this up today, from charity shop.It WAS glazed when I got it but it got broken coming home :'(

    My eldest lives near here so I thought was doubly nice. Was only £2 but my son paid for it anyway :D :D as I don't pay £2 for anything

    Thank you Joy! I can't hang it now though as I've broken the glass. It'll just get chucked in a corner not to be unearthed until I find it looking for something else x x

    Pity, it is a very nice picture. Surely you can get a cheap glass panel to replace it?

    How far is Bristol from Margate Bou? I was born in Chatham in 1942 but grew up in Margate, we came to Canada in 1957 when I was 14yrs. old. I will ALWAYS love England, go back when I can afford to .. a bit out of the question now. .. Joy.

    It is. Margate is also in Kent. Bristol is on the other side, just south of Wales.

    Margate is near Ramsgate, Canterbury is not far away either .. nor Dover. I attended King Ethelbert Secondary School in the Margate area until we moved here, Margate is a seaside holiday place for Big City dwellers .. promenade, hotels, Seafront Bingo games etc. I still feel deeply rooted to England in so many ways. Canada is very Beautiful and my children and grandchildren were of course all born here, .. Joy.

    I have no idea where literally anything is. Cannot do anything to do with directions,measurements etc as I may have mentioned before ( dyspraxia) but my sense of direction is excellent if have been somewhere I can get back. That can be quite helpful but would be nice to know where things actually are :D x
