Who will be running Dreamland next year?

The Save Dreamland Campaign was launched by Joyland Books in January 2003 and is now supported by several thousand people. This is the place to discuss all aspects of saving Margate's famous amusement park and its iconic , Grade II listed Scenic Railway, Britain's oldest roller coaster.

I remember visiting Southend many times after the final closing of the Kursal in my younger years and with only Peter Pans Playground at that time to appeal only to younger families the place was dead, a resort well and truly on it's knees and without Dreamland that is Margates future.
I visited Southend this year for the first time since Peter Pans became Adventure Island (with my young children) and the place was heaving, the busiest I have seen it for many a year and the thing is this was during February half term!
A well run Dreamland will bring people to Margate like no other attraction and it could just save the town from the get rich quick brigade at Waterbridge.

Have some more taco chips, Bob.
Most of them are missing your mouth and falling onto your shirt and into your keyboard, obviously causing it to type BS all by itself.

Bob is what we call on the internet, a "Troll". He is simply holed up in his dirty flat, angry at the world because he is a lazy slob and a failure. He posts here, and probably other message boards, while eating junk food, just to get a reaction. He is best ignored.

Bob is perfectly entitled to post here, although his posts really don't carry a great deal of weight since he is obviously acquainted with the running of Dreamland but consistantly declines to say what his involvement and interest is.

Although this can be frustrating, Ad Hominem attacks are probably best avoided, in my humble opinion.

I just wish he would be frank with us about his interests in Dreamland, as every other forum member is.

Having spoken to some of this years tennants at dreamland today it appears that next year is safe as the site has been re let.
I have no idea of any lease terms and I dont wish to mention the persons name as yet until it is released officially as it may be just a rumor
If it is true then I wish them all the best for 2007 :D
