About Me
- Michael Child
- I run the bookshop in Ramsgate and publish books about this area. My thanetonline blog is about local history and affairs. My Michaels Bookshop blog I use for experimenting with layout and things like posting from a mobile, so I wouldn’t think most people would find it particularly interesting.
