CHEEK from the Independent...
What are the Independent saying1 about Parisienne, Pipers, Jolsons, etc?
(I am aware some of these places have closed, but I am a bit short of other references...)
This is part of my site The 'Gerald that I built in a fury of excitement when we first came to Folkestone in approximately '04. I'd been a frequent visitor for a while previous to that but I am technically one of those DFLs you get nowadays. This site used to be updated more frequently with a calendar of events + voting for favourite venues and 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 knew it was about to become. My name is not Gerald by the way, the name 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.
