On the trail of the Isle of Sheppey’s mystery Moo Mop Mouse!
A mystery artist has been creating cute little artworks featuring a mouse called ‘The Moo Mop Mouse!’ (#moomopmouse). The miniature artworks have been appearing near island beaches in September 2020. This blog entry documents some of the artworks found. The artist often leaves little ‘clue arrows’ pointing to where the small artworks can be found.

Thames sailing barge Raybel and the Dolphin Sailing Barge Museum, Milton Creek, Sittingbourne
February 2020
Historic, 100-year old, Thames sailing barge Raybel, can now be found berthed at the head of Milton Creek in Sittingbourne, alongside Lloyds Wharf – undergoing restoration in the same location she was built at in 1920, thanks to the Raybel Charters project.
From the mid-19th Century until the Second World War the yards on the creek in Sittingbourne produced over 500 barges; the brick fields and barges of North Kent playing a key role in the growth of Victorian London.
We spotted the barge quite by accident, from the adjacent retail park and found our way over to the site, fortunately bumping into Clive Reader, chairman of the Dolphin Sailing Barge Museum, who kindly gave us a quick tour of the stunning newly rebuilt and relocated museum building (the original barge museum off Crown Quay Lane burnt down in October 2008) and arranged for us to have a quick look aboard the Raybel. The new museum probably won’t be officially open until 2021.

An accurate way to find out the ink remaining is to print off a diagnostics sheet, which will include the ink remaining in each cartridge as a percentage (listed under LEFT CHUTE/RIGHT CHUTE on the printout).
