Neville Gets Around Again!

The roving eye of WOP has yet again spotted another piece of (N)evidence around Kent..... this time - a public house honouring our betoothed hero!

When Signs Go Wronger....

Yet again another sight seeing trip to Ramsgate in Kent produces delightful WOP material! One wonders if there any correctly spelled signs in the town at all - if there is - we haven't seen 'em.
So here's the latest!




One would imagine this must be a very small convenience to allow only one gentleman in at a time. Is there any room for a dryer? Or even a sink? Well, we'll never know - the place was shut. Probably due to overcrowding......

Stayed tuned for more finds!

The Most Popular Bottle Bank In The Country?

Our roving eye once again spots another weird sight! This image was taken by our reporter Grange Sands in Deal, Kent.
''This must be the most popular, sought after bottle bank - even the bottles are queuing up to get in!''

Grange was taken away for a quiet word with the doctor last Tuesday.

Christmas WOP: Banking With A Smile

Well pooters - our roaving reporters once again spotted this gem in a Kent town centre recently....now this bank gets my money!

Yes.

WOP At Christmas: A Snowy Solution!

Merry Christmas Pooters! We hope you're enjoying the festive holiday and now ready to tuck into some mince pies with the WOP Dairy Custard*
Whilst there may be some of us that will wake up Christmas Morning to a blanket of snow, most of us look set to miss out on a White Christmas again this year (despite the cold weather lately!)
However, one thoughtul resident of Herne Bay in Kent has come up with an answer - a WOP Sno-blaster Machine (£670.00 from the WOP Winter Goods Dept) - so at least one part of Kent will see some snow!

Happy Christmas Pooters!

The Most Extravagant Branch Of Wetherspoons?

Firstly, another apology! The pages of WOP have been rather quiet since Halloween. The other half of the WOP team has recently been taking up late night knitting classes. Still, he knows what he's doing........

Our roaming eye has been around Kent again recently - and spotted this branch of Wetherspoons in Folkestone. Can there be a more over the top and extravagant building for this pub???? Let us know if you see one!

Nev's Train Journies: Margate To Ramsgate.

Nev's back! He's been compliling footage for a new series of DVD'S documenting some of his train journeys around the country. This is is preview of one of them - Margate To Ramsgate in Kent.

Enjoy!

Kevin Ketley Reports: Herne Bay Festival 2009

Well.....yes it's time for more ad-lib from our sports expert, Kevin Ketley. Quite why he gets given these commentating jobs that has nothing to do with sport remains a bit of a mystery - but he needs the work.
This time he is in Herne Bay for the opening parade at the start of the week long festival.

Sadly we don't get coverage of the fireworks that followed, Kevin had discovered a pub nearby and he was there for most of the festival. He's drying out even now.


Still, he knew what he was doing.....

More finds in Deal!

It seems that the shopkeepers in Deal, Kent are keeping up their commitments to all things poot-worthy.... Just what are these dinosaurs up to on this packaging design for childrens' hankerchiefs?????

Neville Cheestring Visits Deal

First our Nev' went to Wye station to see what electrically hauled gems were on offer, now he's in Deal! You can't keep him away from his official WOP train spotting duties. However, a truly unexpected find was to be had at the station. As he got closer to the station gates, his working eye widened in boyish delight. A collection of exquisite Pullman coaches were in the station, presumably part of a holiday special. It doesn't matter why they were there - Nev just ran to the platform and whipped out his camera to record this truly historic gem.

Neville said ''I just couldn't believe my luck! A lovely train of Pullman's in classic maroon and cream livery. Stuff of legend! It's just a pity some small person ran in to my closing shot as she was vanishing into the distance. A real pity. ''

Even More....!


It didn't end there either, although perhaps it should have. When Neville got back to home base, he found an old London Routemaster bus parked outside the railway station.

Neville stuttered ''Look at her, all on her own waiting for her next load of passengers. They will never come though, what is she doing out of London??! Sheer madness...and disorder. I don't like it. I can't help but feel sorry for her......''

Never mind, Neville....never mind.

Nev's Move Into Road Improvement Vehicle Spotting...

Recently, there was a bit of road re-surfacing taking place near Nev, so he popped down there and took these lovely images for WOP. He went with an open mind but came back feeling quite refreshed having done something a 'little different'.

''Trains are one thing - they are a supreme untouchable force, but I thought I'd take this rare chance to spot some lovely road working traffic for a change.'' He said. ''I didn't realise the amount of work needed to lay a new surface of road down, my good eye was opened!''

Nev was also relieved that he didn't get his 'asphalt' on this occasion.

''Look at her - tearing up the old surface with ease....''

''Lovely conveyor type rigging on her''

''It was getting dark and way past my bed time, but I stuck around for this moody shot. Lovely Hi Vis Clothing''.

Whitstable Oyster Festival 2009 - With Kevin Ketley

Well.....it's been a glorious summer day and our Kev' was in Whitstable, Kent, to bring us coverage of the start of the annual Oyster Festival. A slight diversion from the usual sports programmes he covers - but nonetheless most poot-worthy!

The carnival atmosphere was felt around the harbour town, and Kevin certainly enjoyed the carnival atmosphere of the pubs after. He confesses he has never tried an oyster and never will. He can't stand the things. They remind him of his ex-wife apparently.

The BBC have Wimbledon and Football. We have Oysters.
So enjoy the summer with Kevin Ketley.

WOP: Ramsgate Revisited

So much poot-worthy material was gathered from our last visit to this famous Kent port, one half of the Poot team decided to go there again today.... and yet again - the visit proved fruitful!

It has to be said, that these are all in one street.....maybe many more treasures can be found upon further exploration.....


Okay...I may have doctored this one ever so slightly! Apt though, don't you think?



Is this a clinic? A shop that will give you burns?? Maybe it's a poorly named electrical appliance shop? Who knows.....

This surely must be the most half-arsed sign in Kent! We like it.

Ramsgate gets a great big thumbs up from The World Of Poot!

Neville Cheestring Reports....From Wye Railway Station, Kent.

This is the first of possibly a series of reports - of our Nev' reporting on locations around the country. Kent would be the most easiest, and he will more than likely stick to that to be honest....

To kick us off, Nev went down to Wye near Ashford, to sample the scones and see if the visitor centre was open. It wasn't, but he's not one to give up on a quest - he managed to video this 'beauty' pulling out of the railway station.....

Wagon Wheels roll!!!!!!

Is Neville Everywhere??!

Just this very morning, I spotted this sign outside some flats in Kent. It seems he's everywhere.....

And to add to the irony, it was dead opposite the railway station!

It writes itself....

More Dodgy Record Covers!!

Once again we went along to the charity shops in Deal, Kent, to see what delights they had in store. And once again, we weren't disappointed......

We even went back to the same shop, just to see if we missed anything from our first, hurried visit.
I think you'll agree - pure gems to be found. My personal favourite is 'Bankers At Play'. Heaven knows.....

WOP Does Ramsgate....

One half of the WOP team ventured into Ramsgate, Kent today to spot some poot material. Look at the price cuts offered!

It's good to see our Tony (must check the literacy of his signwriter, mind) doing well in his legitimate High Street shop!

Well, the standards of Kent Education can leave a lot to be desired, quite frankly! I think the same signwriter is employed all over the town....

This shop specialised in 'Trouser Alterations'. I didn't think there were any adult shops in Thanet......

Deal's Dodgy Album Covers!

Well...over the weekend, me and fellow WOP fan Moggymogg ventured out into the streets of Deal in Kent to seek out possible poot material... Our search was highly rewarded with this collection of true gems. So sit back and pour yourself some trifle - enjoy!

One feels the urge to go out and buy an old turntable just to hear these classics.

Note: One has to point out the possibility of political incorrectness on the last cover! Still, they knew what they were doing.....

Thoughts of Mr. Kent

Something of an 'in-joke', this one...
Certainly Mitch and the Bumpkin will appreciate it!

It's amazing what they stock in Aaaaasda these days.
Not exactly Golden Hammers - but it's all publicity, I guess!

It always was all about the pink!

And for the full range...
