We live in Broadstairs which is in the South East of England, if you would like to see the area, visit our Links page. One of our most famous Characters is Charles Dickens. Every year in June, we have the Dickens Festival. It is quite a colourful week, with local people dressing up in Dickensian costumes, and parading in the streets. At the end of the week there is a parade, usually led by characters made famous by Charles Dickens such as Bill Sykes and the orphans and scrooge, the rest of the parade is made up of locals in Dickensian costume. It is well worth seeing, so make a note in your diary to visit Broadstairs this summer! Well there's not too much to say about Thanet, which I suppose could explain the name 'Thanet The Dead Planet'! lol Well we like it here anyway! During the Spring and Summer months we have a large intake of overseas students, this can make Broadstairs a little overcrowded at times especially when you want to visit the local coffee shop!!!!!! Chiapinis - they serve excellent coffee and cakes. Must be tried!!!!!!
