Some flags combined with something other than all day lager and sky sports might have helped. Not sure exactly what though. When I see the waving of flags at the last night of the proms, I still only think of bigotry and jingoism.
This is my website The 'Gerald that I built in a fury of excitement when we first came to Folkestone in approximately 2004. I'd been a regular visitor for a few years previous to that but I am technically one of those DFLs you get now. The site was a lot more dynamic with a calendar of events and voting for favourite venues and stuff, and I know it was a handy reference for those who were moving here. Now I've moved out of Folkestone again (though only a couple of miles) it doesn't get as much attention as it used to. Ironic really as Folkestone itself is becoming the exciting place we knew it was just about to. I am not Gerald BTW, this comes from the name of a fake newspaper in an episode of The Day Today or something, the Portsmouth Gerald, and how there is a local newspaper here called the Folkestone Herald. Puns like this are great aren't they? Do contact me if you have something to contribute, email anythign @ this domain, or try @folkestone or @pauly on Twitter.
