Ha! The guy from Trent would say that wouldn't he?
Actually, if the council accept the D'Haan/Foster designs as the masterplan for the area, then Godden/Trent will be forced to build according to the plan - or have their land compulsorily purchased so that the council can build according to the plan.
I'm not a big fan of compulsory purchases, but I think in this case it would be most justified.
This is my site The Folkestone Gerald that I built in a frenzy of excitement when we first moved here sometime in '04. I'd been a regular visitor for a while before that but I am technically one of those Down From Londons you get now. This site was a lot more dynamic with a calendar of events and voting for favourite venues and things, and I hear it was a useful resource for those who were thinking of moving here. 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 now becoming the exciting place we always thought it was just about to. I am not Gerald by the way, this comes from a pretend newspaper 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 anything to offer, email anythign @ this domain, or try @folkestone or @pauly on the twitter.
