Ahh that’s so cool to hear. I would’ve loved to see it back in the day! I’m glad the video could bring back some great memories for you 😊

Amazing and you had some great weather at the weekend (better than today anyway 🤪). It is probably my favourite seaside town in Kent. Still need to try out the crab museum !

Also love that you saw FFAF there! I’ve been there but didn’t see them!

Oh yeh that was literally just before they ‘broke up’. Thanks so much as always for your very kind comments 😁

Thanks very much Donna, Soul Weekender will be amazing 🤩

I don’t think there is a single place that you missed out Jack. Margate looks like it has actually improved since I last went and that was a few years ago. 😀

Cheers Lin

Ah thanks so much! I hope it’s bringing back some memories for you! Definitely got Ramsgate planned in the next few months

@@jackryanmiller yeah we are coming over to Kent end of this month and staying in Herne Bay area.

Thanks so much for your comment, it’s great to hear from someone who grew up there, I would’ve loved to see it in the 70s! I’m going back in a few weeks to do a separate video on Dreamland, which again is refurbished now but was basically derelict for over 10 years! Whitstable is definitely on my list of places to visit next! Thanks again

Like the town centre, beach and Dreamland

I completely agree! You can walk down the whole seafront in 15 mins but still do so many different things

Thanks so much for watching Nicholas. That’s such a shame , the winter gardens looks so grand as well so I hope someone invests soon

That is a real shame about the winter gardens. Hopefully at some point they plan to redevelop! I’ll be sure to check out Empire of light, I did see that advertised!

the movie was naff though and had that dreadful Coleman woman in it.

Ha ha I’ve walked past it so many times but never been in there. I’m actually going Margate again next week so will be sure to check it out 😁

Best in the world Eddie

Thanks very much Ian, really appreciate it. At least half of the places on that list I’m planning on visiting in September and October so I’ll definitely be doing that. And then spring / summer next year I’ll do the rest. Looking most forward to Blackpool 😁

Or even better, from monday its going to be 24/25 for most of the week so might be a good opportunity for you? Love to see your verdicts.

@@jackryanmiller....that would be amazing...you see me and the family we really dont like going abroad atm...especially if the Weather is good here and the uk seaside resorts has alot to offer...but we cannot decide which resort to go to..this is where you come in.!!! Haha. Ps..your videos are brill.

@@ianmeyer2652 aha that’s great, thanks again. I’m the same and wasn’t able to go abroad this year so been visiting as many places in the uk as possible! Also going to visit some of the worst rated places to mix it up a bit 😁

@@jackryanmiller ...great idea. Would be amazing to see how they pair up. In addition to the list ive sent you of uks most popular seaside resort, Here's a futher list to help you if needed of some of the worst rated resorts and some of the ones rated not bad or good ..ie .o.k.. lol. Hope this helps you when doing your videos. Worst rated. 1. Skegness 2. Minehead 3.Clacton on sea 4. Tenby 5. Weston super mare 6.Margate ( which you already have done and does not seem that bad imo from what you shown) 7.Morecambe 8.lowestoft 9.ilfracombe 10.cleethropes 11.Bognor regis 12.Paignton. Here are the ones rated not bad or good. 1.Broadstairs 2.Eastbourne 3.southwold 4.southsea (Portsmouth) 5.Llandudno 6.Hastings 7.folkestone 8.Worthing 9.felixstowe 10.Bridlington 11.ramsgate 12.southport 13.exmouth 14.walton on the naze 15.Herne bay Hope this helps you buddy. Ps...i bet you any money the worst rated or the not good / not bad list comes out better than the 10 most popular seaside resorts ? Haha. Be very interesting to see . Im sure you will do them all justice in your video report !!! Cant wait. All the best.💪

Ha ha totally agree man but I love the run down parts. It what makes it special. This and Folkestone are my new favourites because they have a hipster bit but then more run down backstreets

Surely depends what you look at? Yes it’s got derelict buildings, but also 22 miles of golden sands surrounding it, Viking trails, plenty of nice green spaces….i did 10 years in London, 10 in Milan and Thanet is nicer than both. And don’t give me oh Milan is lovely…. It’s ok for a weekend break that’s about it

@nicholaslogan8515 definitely not even worth the weekend lol. I rather pop over to Portugal for not that much of a difference in price/accommodation etc.

As voted for by the great publication of Time Out magazine 😆

@@jackryanmiller Oh well that settles it then Wow …. Who knew such a Publication could be so wrong…

I totally agree

Clacton is next on the list 😁

Thank you for your comment, and I’m sorry to hear about your experience

Ha ha that’s so funny. Sounds like I need to visit some US beach towns 🤪

Sold. 😂😂😂

You forgot to mention the possibility of tidal flooding if you buy property there near the seafront. Whilst it’s nice in summer it must be dreary in wintertime when storms hit. Although plenty of Londoners moving there, buying up properties and renting spare rooms out on Airbnb. Thanet council is reclaiming a lot of Victorian housing in Cliftonville from houses with multiple occupants, hoping new buyers can turn them into family homes. I bet home insurance for a house overlooking the seafront must cost a bit, with some housing uninsurable due to flooding caused by tides and sewage. I like Margate and would like living there if none of those problems, alongside antisocial behaviour at night existed.
