Thanet

Herne Bay had the most wonderful seafood I remember having great meals there when we were on holiday. We lived in Kent but didn't travel far from home! Westgate was my mum's holiday of choice.

I didn’t live in Thanet but was a regular visitor. I lived in Ashford as a child and we went on regular holidays and day trips to Westgate. I love the area. Lots of happy memories!

I lived in Birchington for over 30 years. Recently moved a bit further round the coast.

Herne Bay isn't Thanet though - or have I misunderstood the post?

Only been once but I have a very pleasant memory. Many years ago we took a group of people with learning disabilities on holiday to Kent. We parked in Thanet and duly paid the parking fee. An attendant came running after me with a refund of the fee saying ' nowhere on the Isle of Thanet do disabled people have to pay for parking'. Very kind.

No, but I often buy lovely cherry tomatoes from a grower called Thanet Earth.

I was brought up in Mid Kent and visited Thanet - Ramsgate, Broadstairs, Margate, on day trips as a child. Now, I live here and love it.
The area has a long history of welcoming people with disabilities, I am proud to say, and has a larger- than - average number of special schools.

My sister and her family lived in Broadstairs from 1982 until her death in 2016 so I have spent a great deal of time there over the years and really love the area.

One of my nephews still lives in Broadstairs and another in Ramsgate.

I always think it must have been quite impressive back in its Victorian hey day.

I live in Thanet. My DC and 5 DGC were all born here.
There have been lots of changes over the years.

My family moved to Broadstairs when I was 16. I have been back there many times over the years. Lots of changes but still one of my favourite places.

I was born in Ramsgate and spent a lot of time living with my nan, who ran a guest house there.
