The sun shone but the wind didn't blow on Saturday, and on Sunday we had the reverse so for the public it was a bit of a washout.<br /><br />The event is organised by the KSGB and the Margate Town Partnership. The latter put up the funding, and one wonders who has the responsibuility for local advertising and publicity. Mind you we have a similar quango locally, they spend our money on events and fail to tell us they are happening. Having said that for Portsmouth Kite Festival some fliers went down a day early to do some publicty for the TV; they did pieces to camera, flew kites and had them filmed, all of which ended up as a 10 second announcement in a long list of things to do on the bank holiday weekend.
