As this thread is not directly about Dreamland, this is probably a suitable place to post this.
Plans for a public memorial service in Kent for two victims of serial killer Peter Tobin have been put on hold indefinitely.
The families of Dinah McNicol and Vicky Hamilton were due to take part in an event at Holy Trinity Church, Margate.
Ian McNicol, Dinah's father, said he had been "messed about" by Thanet Council and would now hold a private ceremony in the summer
Mr McNicol, who lives in Essex, said he had lost patience with Thanet District Council over the dates of the public memorial.
He added: "I told them to shove it. They kept messing us about.
"Fair enough in December there was all the snow but then it was set to do it in March. I then rang them but I couldn't get hold of anyone.
"Then they changed it to June, which was six months away. The memorial [in the church] had already been built.
"They then changed it again to April the first, then 5 April. There's no respect for our two girls."

Given our own experiences, I have no doubt in believing Mr McNicol's version of events. What an embarrassment our local council is.
