What's the betting the weather wipes one or more of them out?

I'd go and watch an FA Cup game if I was you. Could try to get tickets for Dover vs Palace or failing that there's quite a few London teams at home - Arsenal, Chelsea, Charlton, Brentford, Fulham, Millwall, QPR. Will be able to get tickets for all of those I'd have thought. There will be plenty of room in the away end at the Emirates!

Quoted from Sweden
I along with my daughter ordered the flight from Sweden and car rentals and hotels in Dover from sunday. Expensive weekend. Suggestions on what we should do? Other football game.


Off the football theme, Dover castle is worth a visit - on the site there are fortifications from medieval right up to World War II. There's a lot more to explore than the last time I went - they've opened up some of the tunnels and underground bunkers and done mock-ups of how they were used.

Canterbury isn't far if you like quaint old cathedral cities (and shopping). Deal and Walmer just up the coast from Dover have 16th century forts. Head a bit further up the coast and you have Broadstairs which has a lot of fine old buildings too.

If you like shellfish, Whitstable is good for oysters. There used to be some good pubs there (and in Canterbury) when I lived there in the 80s. I think the Millers Arms in Canterbury is still probably good for ales, a roaring open fire and a bit of basic pub grub. There's a couple of theatres too if that floats your boat.


Through the door there came familiar laughter,
I saw your face and heard you call my name.
Oh my friend we're older but no wiser,
For in our hearts the dreams are still the same.

From last night's question time, think Canterbury seems anything but quaint nowadays?  

I knew someone from down that part of the world and they always recommended a trip on the Romney Hythe & Dymchurch railway

Not everyone's cup of tea maybe but might be a nice way to view the local area
