No Wikipedia Entry???

Hi,

I noticed that there was no Wikipedia entry (www.wikipedia.org) for Dreamland or the Scenic, so I created one. It would be cool if someone who has taken a picture of the Scenic or Dreamland could upload it (it has to be your picture, as you must be able to give the copyright away).

Hoping to visit this season

There you go,

I have included a still photo taken from the hand-held footage that I shot of Dreamland on August 8th 2004.

Vince,
Are you planning on any more trips down to Dreamland this year?

If so, maybe we could travel down together and split the cost of petrol
and exchange stories about Dreamland from the past.

Hi,

I don't think I will be able to make it to Margate again this season - it ends so soon.

Only one weekend left this month and then myself and the wife are off to Dorset for the Steam Fair. This also happens to be accompanied by the 4th largest travelling fair in the UK. This will take two weekends and the week between out of our schedule.

If you haven't seen info on the show before, I would recommend glancing at http://www.steam-fair.co.uk - The Great Dorset Steam Fair is the largest show of it's kind in the world. I know of people travelling from Germany and Australia to attend!
