sorry sorry sorry!! dopey me. I'm back and hadn't realized this thread had been picked up had posted also in General advice/tips and when there wasn't an instant reaction (looks like impatient is my middle name hadn't looked again as I'd been speaking with Triplets in 'General'. Ooh, I'm so excited now as we are decided. Just have to sort some house things out and we will be moving! There sounds like there is tons to do. Triplets, ta for your message, I've CAT-ed you...

I agree that Deal feels quaint and long may it remain so... went to Whitstable and though I quite liked it - it must get rammed in the summer as I was there on a Saturday and it busier than Oxford St. TuftyClub,isn't Sandwich pricey or did I just imagine that? Your family planning info made me chuckle too - I'll need a lot of Oil of Olay to make it past the doors. The paddling pool on the sea front sounds lovely. Brilliant - thank you all so much for your info.

Hi Muslin,
Got your message and have just replied so hope you get it too!

Hi Muslin,
A really good website for you is
www.thebestof.co.uk/deal

if googled only one site will come up, click on it, then when you are into the website the best thing is to click on the labelled blue tabs for info.

there is also the library - Baby Bounce and Rhyme once a month for 0-3s and storytime every week for 2+

we're in maidstone and have only been to Deal for day trips. always been quite nice though, beach was decent and clean. but i dont know anything about living there, sorry :I

Muslin,There is a TAI CHI class at the local leisure centre Tides but lunchtime on Tues, if you look at thsite I have just given you, click on events, then on weekly classes.

brilliant. will have a look at that link. Thanks for your message Triplets, have emailed you - thanks Compo and everyone else... feel very much armed with good info now. Ta x

heh muslin have you tried have you looked at this

Oh shoot, triplets had already given you this link; sorry!

thanks though Tuftyclub, good to be given info - even if twice! ta very much x

Hi all, this is an old thread I know, but wondering if the OP moved to Deal in the end and also if anyone has any info on the Mill Hill area? We are looking for a 3 bed house in Deal and lots of our options are in that area (possibly for a reason?). Thank you!
