Used to go to Bem Bom brothers as a yoot. Catch the train down from London Bridge to Margate and spend the day in the arcades trying to chat up girls who were too old for me
Don't know about law, but any operator who ain't a shyster will have life jackets on board. You hiring a boat or going out on a charter ?
God nah we wont be anywhere near margate beachfront, my old Man used to have a bungalow in a village called monkton I'm sure that was ramsgate? Joss Bay ill keep it in mind when was you last there? What's there?
Nah we got a captain and lunch all that ****. Id never get on a boat with me and my dad at the wheel and my bro on board
What's at Joss Bay? Nowt, fooking nice and peaceful, pub up the top and cove/beach at the bottom. But kids are off, so that's the peace fooked. Yeah I know of Monkton, nowt more than that. If you go into Ramsgate, where the Spoons by the harbour/beach is all the beer will be cheap around there and a chippy across the road.
I used to know a bloke down here who had one of those little ****ing put-put boats with a small outboard and little cabin over. He used to go over to the Isles of Scilly on his own in it. No radio, no radar, nothing. It's a 29 mile stretch from Land's End across some of the most treacherous currents, where two oceans meet. I used to ask him how the **** he didn't get lost and he told me he would just follow the passenger ship over there, and if he lost it, he'd wait for the helicopter between St mary's and Penzance to fly over. Crazy bastard.
Ill get round there and check it out, at least drive through it anyway, I need a good pub for a fresh seafood platter **** got any of them? I get spoons down here everyday if I want mate fuk that lol
This guys been Doing it 21years, it has a radar thing like them wiked tuna boats, and apparently specialises in catching seabass and summin else skate maybe can't remember now. And we keep what we catch to take home.
I think the pub in Joss is called the Captain Digby. Google it. Big outside area on the cliff edge (or I think it was). Not sure about the seafood platter. I'll Google tomorrow and see if anything stands out that I remember. I'm sure somewhere like Whitstable would do that - well popular place but name escapes me at the mo. I need sleep now.
Ta mate, night. WHEN YOU CLOSE YOUR EYES TONIGHT YOU WILL PICTURE SUCKY SPOONING YOU WHENEVER YOU ROLL ON YOUR SIDE
