The Pullman is shockingly nice now

Went to The Pullman at the weekend and we were amazed at how nice it is now. I didn't go there much before it closed down, but this refurb is a great job. They do food and four real ales now, and there's a nice atmosphere. It's aimed at a more sophisticated older crowd now I would say than your average binge drinkers, maybe that's why it was a bit quiet. Seriously, give it a try.

⬅️ :: Anyone know of a Folkestone venue in the '80s called Peter Pipers? ➡️

This is part of my site The 'Gerald that I built in a fury of excitement when I first came to Folkestone in approximately '04. I'd been a regular visitor for a few years before that so I am technically one of those Down From Londons you get now. The site used to be a lot more dynamic with a gig calendar and voting for best 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 becoming the exciting place we always thought it was about to become. My name is not Gerald BTW, this comes from the name of a fake newspaper in an episode of Brasseye 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 anything to offer, email anythign @ this domain, or try @folkestone or @pauly on Twitter.
