Splendid dinner tonight from A Crust Eaten. Not quite the same relaxed welcome we got from Follie's but a super night of food, and with a real ale background throw inn. Good work!
Met several people tonight who had actually heard of the 'Gerald, surprising and a bit weird, but also thrilling.
Thanks to everyone, you make us very happy.
This is my website The 'Gerald that I built in a fury of enthusiasm when I first came to Folkestone in approximately 2004. I'd been a frequent visitor for a while before that but I am technically one of those Down From Londons you get nowadays. The site was a lot more dynamic with a gig calendar and voting for favourite venues and stuff, and I know it was a useful reference for those who were thinking of moving here. Now I've moved out of Folkestone again (though only to Hythe) 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 just about to. My name is not Gerald BTW, this comes from 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 anything to contribute, email anythign @ this domain, or try @folkestone or @pauly on Twitter.
