The Thanet Star

On holiday, after a fashion

I'm taking a few days off. Maybe a week or more. That means that there will be no best of 2008 for which I apologise. I will attempt to present the finalists for the caption contest on my return.

I'm simply feeling deeply unhappy right now and have no especial desire to inflict this upon the readers of the site. Talking about TDC is depressing enough as it is and one needs a relativity sunny disposition or at least a fighting spirit to cope with it. I'll be back in a short while.

Don't forget me.

Cheers. I managed a not very topic post on traffic levels but I'm not back to full speed yet. Just a dose of the post Christmas blues most likely.

Stock Market Seminars

If you fancy using money to make money you might be interested in some Free Stock Market Seminars in Kent. Okay so there are none in Thanet right now but follow K2A Guy and be the first to find out when there is.

No spam today, thank you.

Any more losers posting as Oes Tsetnoc for this lame SEO/Spam contest are going to get a full letter of complaint to their ISP.
