Update from... York?

Actually why don't we have any local venues putting on this quantity of gigs? I can't complain too loud I suppose, as the Cheesegrater has put some shows on and I've not been along yet, but harrumpf anyway. This is from York Fibbers1:

This is my site The FG that I set up in a fury of excitement when we first moved to Folkestone sometime in '04. I'd been a frequent visitor for a few years before that but I am technically one of those DFLs you get nowadays. The site was updated more frequently with a gig calendar and voting for favourite venues and things, and I hear it was a useful reference 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 attention as it used to. Ironic really as The town is now becoming the exciting place we knew it was just about to. My name is 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 anything to offer, email anythign @ this domain, or try @folkestone or @pauly on the twitter.
