RE: Vanished businesses - 11515

Feltonfleet moved to Cobham, Surrey after moving from Folkestone and pupils were evacuated during the war to Perrott Hill in Crewkerne, Somerset. After the war, the school moved back to the existing site in Surrey and is very much thriving now as a co-educational prep school for pupils between the ages of 3 and 13. The School has an active Former Pupils Association and if you would like further details, do please email the school office@feltonfleet.co.uk and they can forward your details to Peter Colbourne-Baber who heads the FPA and as a former pupil himself has also done a great deal of research into the history of the school, which recently celebrated its centenary. The school website feltonfleet.co.uk provides lots of information about the school and we welcome visits from former pupils.

This is my site The Folkestone Gerald that I built in a fever of excitement when we first moved here sometime in '04. I'd been a regular visitor for a while before that but I am technically one of those Down From Londons you get now. This site was a lot more dynamic with a calendar of events and voting for favourite venues and things, and I hear it was a useful reference for others 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 love as it used to. Ironic really as Folkestone itself is becoming the exciting place we always thought it was just about to. I am not Gerald by the way, the name comes from a fake 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 the twitter.
