You are correct KeithG, so it returns back to you. However, before it does (not that it matters), a few extra brownie points if you can say when this occurred?

Many thanks KeithG, I was thoroughly on its case without the SAGA connection, but it did help.

Here is my next, but where and when?

I thought Capital Letters would secure the location to somebody and yes CAT it is now Folkestone Bus Station.



Living around the edge of Folkestone, I should have got this one!  :-[

The Now picture is the same NSEW aspect as my scan North to the top of the page but of course is nothing to do with it`s location.
You can see the Saga building opposite the Bus Station.


Over to You.......

Is it the former Bouverie Square, Folkestone, from the southwest (about midday in the summer months) which was partially demolished to form Folkestone bus station and the old headquarters to SAGA holidays before they moved to Sandgate?
