Not Folkestone actually, but Cheriton... it's on the BBC now, says women there but on the twitter and facebook people are saying it was a teenage girl.
In the interests of balance, and to prove not all the worst news happens here, some people deliberately drowned a pony in Hampshire at the weekend.
This is my website The Folkestone Gerald that I built in a fury of enthusiasm when we first came to Folkestone sometime in '04. I'd been a frequent visitor for a while before that so I am technically one of those Down From Londons you get nowadays. The site was updated more frequently with a gig calendar and voting for favourite venues and stuff, and I hear it was a useful reference for others who were thinking of 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 The town is becoming the exciting place we always thought it was about to become. I am not Gerald by the way, this comes from a pretend newspaper in an episode of Brasseye or something, the Portsmouth Gerald, and how there is a local paper here called the Folkestone Herald. Puns like this are great aren't they? Do contact me if you have anything to contribute, email anythign @ this domain, or try @folkestone or @pauly on Twitter.
