Gerald - 'tis Geordie George if U R da right guy...we used 2 jam @ my house in Cheriton and urs too - with a beer an a smoke! I also had young Paul as a learner...haha, my son Daniels' friend from school to ...erm...teach! 16 yrs on - and my boys (men now!) have managed to contact young - at the time - PAUL MINTER. This was done thru Facebook I hear, and Paul asked my Gary 'How's ya dad' or summit... it has been alleged that Paul now has a recording studio in Wales - where the beer is good & cheep!
Is this the very same Paul Minter from Cheriton (lived with mam & dad behind the big pub near Cheriton High St but on left on way to town). He should be aged about 29 - 30 yrs now, bless him, he's really getting on now!
Let me know as I would enjoy a riff or two someday - he could probably show me how an AXE works!
Kind regards
George (Geordie)
This is part of my site The 'Gerald that I built in a fury of enthusiasm when I first moved here sometime in '04. I'd been a frequent visitor for a few years previous to that but I am technically one of those Down From Londons you get now. The site used to be a lot more dynamic with a calendar of events and voting for favourite venues and things, and I know it was a handy reference for those who were thinking of moving to the area. Now I've moved out of Folkestone again (though just a couple of miles) it doesn't get as much attention as it used to. Ironic really as The town is now becoming the exciting place we knew it was just about to. My name is not Gerald BTW, the name comes from the name of a pretend newspaper in an episode of The Day Today or something, the Portsmouth Gerald, and how there is a local paper here called the Folkestone Herald. Puns like this are GRATE aren't they? Do contact me if you have anything to offer, email anythign @ this domain, or try @folkestone or @pauly on Twitter.
