This is part of my site The FG that I built in a fury of excitement when we first moved to Folkestone in approximately '04. I'd been a regular visitor for a few years before that but I am technically one of those DFLs you get now. The site used to be a lot more dynamic with a calendar of events and voting for favourite places and stuff, 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 paper 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 something to offer, email anythign @ this domain, or try @folkestone or @pauly on the twitter.
