Folkestone

Umm... dont lke the sound of this place. "Crime and anti-social behaviour are ongoing social problems fuelled by the poverty, anger and fear that characterise the citizens of Folkestone." Who wrote this about our beloved Folky? en.wikipedia.org/wiki/#Folkestone

This is part of my site The 'Gerald that I built in a fury of enthusiasm when I first moved here sometime in 2004. I'd been a frequent visitor for a while previous to that so I am technically one of those DFLs you get nowadays. The site was a lot more dynamic with a gig calendar and voting for favourite places and stuff, and I know it was a useful resource for those who were thinking of moving to the area. Now I've moved out of Folkestone again (though only to Hythe) it doesn't get as much love as it used to. Ironic really as The town is becoming the exciting place we knew it was about to become. I am not Gerald by the way, this comes from a pretend 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 get in touch if you have something to offer, email anythign @ this domain, or try @folkestone or @pauly on Twitter.
