An Excellent Meal at The Churchill Tavern in Ramsgate and a quick sketch

A busy day at work in my bookshop today, why the retail book business here in Ramsgate is improving is still a mystery to me, anyway by closing time I felt I had done enough for one day so we went for a meal at The Churchill Tavern.
So a pen and watercolour sketch of the inside of the pub, some of the colours are a bit strange as there isn’t really enough light to see what you are doing.
 The food there is consistently very good.
Anyway I would like you to meet the bookshops new book promotion manager Flat Eric, Flat is now running our advertising department and I handed him some of the more unusual books that I bought today.
 Flat says. Obviously metal is the wrong material to make railways out of and making thme out of trees would be better for the environment.
 Flat says. RiverOak and Discovery Parks have it all wrong and the future is airships.
 Flat has been looking at this one for some time and hasn't said anything
 Flat Says. I thoroughly support humane traps for small animals
Flat says. Eats shoots and leaves. Ed. note the subtitle should read, The Lass at "The Man and Scythe"

    I see the Churchill Tavern accepts the TasteCard. if you dont have one Michael, 30 day free trial is available and most establishments accepting Tastecard either give 2 for 1 of 50% off Monday to Friday.

    had a meal in Churchills on Saturday night too, have to say it was excellent. But I dread to think how many expletives Gordon Ramsay would use at the head chef when he saw the size of the menu, surely that cant be economically viable to have so much availability?

    Not complaining though, have been there a few times and always been good food and decent portions too.

Please note comments that may be libellous, comments that may be construed as offensive, anonymous derogatory comments about real people, comments baiting internet trolls, comments saying that an anonymous comment was made by a named real person, boring comments and spam comments, comments in CAPs will be deleted. Playground stuff like calling real people by their time stamp or surname alone, referring to groups as gangs, old duffers and so on will result in deletion. Comment quoting what people have said elsewhere on the internet must contain details of where and when the quotation is. Comment that may be construed as offensive to minority groups is not allowed here either, so think before you write it, remember that the internet is a public place, that it is very difficult to be truly anonymous and that everyone who uses it leaves a trail of some sort. Also note the facility to leave anonymous comment will be turned of during periods when I am unable to monitor comment, this will not affect people commenting who are signed on to their blogger accounts. When things are particularly difficult on the commercial spam front I may turn comment moderation on for periods.

If you feel that someone has left a comment that is offensive and directed at you personally please email me (link on the sidebar) asking to have it removed, you will need to tell which post and the date and timestamp of the offending comment. Please do not reply to the offending comment as I will assume you continuing the dialogue as meaning that you want the comments left there.
