Ics and "ics" related stuff, including places, pubbing, gigs and posts about ics. If you have something to contribute concerning ics that is not mentioned here, please contribute. Particularly if you have something to contribute concerning local pubbing or other places, home brew, ale, or appley goodness. Cheers.

This is my personal site, so if you search here for pubbing or other places it will only return ics pubbing / places I have been to or plan to go to. Fingers crossed it will return those anyway...If you are interested in a more broader search please try ics on 'Folkestone Gerald, where I list national and international places...

As it turns out there are no pubbing / places concerning ics anyway. Is there something I have missed? Please let me know!
