On our journey from holidays in the Cotswolds back to Germany, we spent a last evening on the island in Folkestone, in The Pullman. It was the happy end of two wonderful weeks!
The owner was very kind and obliging, for instance to show us the way to a cash machine. The staff was very polite and open-minded to let us select the right meal and drink. (Best regards to the girl with relatives at Bielefeld!) The whole atmosphere was plesant even to strangers like us. Thanks!

This is my site The 'Gerald that I set up in a fury of excitement when we first moved to Folkestone sometime in '04. I had been a frequent visitor for a while previous to that but I am technically one of those DFLs you get nowadays. The site was updated more frequently with a calendar of events and voting for favourite places + things, + I know it was a useful reference for others who were moving here. 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 Folkestone itself is now becoming the exciting place we knew it was about to become. My name is not Gerald BTW, the name comes from the name of a pretend paper in an episode of Brasseye or something, the Portsmouth Gerald, and how there is a local newspaper 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 Twitter.
