Can't believe a) the forerunner of "make that bit of Folkestone nice" has closed, but also b) I had to be told of it by people who live out of town. I was down there the other day in 13cc and did not notice anything.
Googies was quite good, did they just overstretch themselves? Guess it did not work as well as a bar in the double sized premises. Good luck if you start again Mr Googies!
This is my website The FG that I set up in a fury of excitement when I first came here sometime in 2004. I'd been a frequent visitor for a while before that but I am technically one of those Down From Londons you get nowadays. The site was updated more frequently with a gig calendar + voting for favourite places and things, and I know it was a useful resource 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 love as it used to. Ironic really as The town is now becoming the exciting place we always thought it was about to become. My name is not Gerald by the way, this comes from a fake paper in an episode of Brasseye or something, the Portsmouth Gerald, + how there is a local paper here called the Folkestone Herald. Puns like this are great aren't they? Do contact me if you have something to contribute, email anythign @ this domain, or try @folkestone or @pauly on the twitter.
