Reader Andy has sent me this old picture, click on it to enlarge, he thinks that it is Margate, I had my reservations and couldn’t quite place it, but now I am inclined to agree with him.Anyway I thought placing it would amuse other bloggers.
Anyone care to hazard a date?
Update due to comments, the picture is definitely Margate and is looking to be about 1860 to 1870 see Tony’s post about Margate then http://thanetcoastlife.blogspot.com/2008/12/marine-terrace-1860.html
Simon’s old photos also gat a mention, see http://www.flickr.com/photos/drmoores/sets/256119/show/ they are on flicker making it a bit hard to copy them.
A naughty note about copying pictures from Flicker and other websites that don’t let you copy pictures from them.
Get the picture as big as you can on your screen, with flicker it’s best to hit the pause button first or the picture will flicker away.
Press the Print screen button on your keyboard, go to start, All Programs, Accessories, Paint.

Once you have opened Paint, hit paste, pressing the Ctrl and V key at the same time will do this, the picture should then open in Paint and you can save it on your computer.
