There's a new Camden style retro shop opened in Folkestone. Today was the first day of opening, just low key at the moment, they're going to launch properly in a couple of weeks, I'm sure they'll [reply]invite me along for the champagne reception[/reply].
Unfortunately I completely forget what it was called :-( It's on the road where The Pullman is that goes to The Bayle. Check them out. The counter is a ship-shaped cocktail bar, and they sell the kind of clothes you wish you could find in charity shops.
This is my site The 'Gerald that I set up in a fury of excitement when I first came here in approximately '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 a lot more dynamic with a gig calendar + voting for best venues + things, and I know it was a useful reference for those who were moving here. Now I've moved out of Folkestone again (though just 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 about to become. 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 get in touch if you have anything to offer, email anythign @ this domain, or try @folkestone or @pauly on Twitter.
