Trawlerboys Visit

[pmwhitlow]

Hi, we're visiting Margate on Saturday (possible stopping over Friday night).

 

 

Our supporters are making this a "hats" event, so we should all be ready to enjoy the day!

Looking forward to our visit to another seaside town, apart from the Turner Gallery what is there to do on a Saturday morning?

Heavy drinking and violence.

Don't you mean "AS WELL AS the Turner Gallery" what else is there to do. Well on a nice sunny day the Beach is worth the visit if nothing else.

[pmwhitlow]

I think the Heavy drinking will have to wait for another day.....it's a long drive home! Our supporters are not known for violence either

The "Beach" isn't a pub (Its okay, I know who you were replying to)

You could spend a few hours in the High Street browsing M & S, Woolworths and many other big name retailers. Then you could visit the caves before seeking out the many thrills available at Dreamland. A single day in Margate just isn't enough time to see everything.

on a serious note on your to Margate you'll pass Birchington Try Quex Museum Worth a visit, yes you have to pay but its full of dead stuffed animals....

A three year queue ?

seriously, my "stepson" is a fairground fanatic. Is anything up and running?

[Dutch_Mike]

Come and join some of us Margate fans in the pub!

[Andy .]

Or when you lot come into Birchington you could always head down the high street and down to Minnis Bay , will be packed and you could sit and have a pint at the Minnis pub whilst gazing at the wonderful Thanet coast line . Should be a great day out for you guys except for the result of course .

[P.W.]

If you're planning to visit the Turner Centre you'll probably spend most of the morning trying to find somewhere to park (then time in the bank arranging an overdraft to pay for parking).

 

Have a good day though - make some noise at the ground (some of us Margate fans have forgotten how to do that).

No Dreamland closed no rides. Margate caves closed. Shell Grotto open worth a look

Ramsgate is close by!! Couldn't be bothered to copy individual stuff, but....:

Spitfire and Hurricane Museum at Manston is worth a visit.

 

Also the Manston History Museum is also worth a visit.

[pmwhitlow]

Thanks, Manston looks a good option, then a stroll along the beach!

My partner is looking a bit worried, CAMRA Beer Festival tonight (although I doubt we'll get there) then a Spitfire museum tomorrow. I'm sure we can visit some shops too before the match.

Chris Kinnear the "new" manager. Will that inspire Margate?

Bit like watching Thanet District Council councillors....... but the Quex Museum does not cost you so much

[seasidesteve]

you can spend a couple of hours in wallyworld on the seafront

Manston isn't a stroll from the beach I'm afraid but 5 minutes from the ground (by car) - Westwood cross shopping centre for your shops. The beer festival runs today and tomorrow - I shall be there today, recovering tomorrow!

Will the new manager insipre Margate

 

in a word

 

 

to Planet Thanet !

I was just looking at that Tony, its funny that any team down to 11th place have a mathematical chance of making the playoffs, yet just 4 places below, if we won our last 3 games we could only go up a maximum of two places. Lets look forward to next season.
