Sound and "sound" related stuff, including places, pubbing, gigs and posts about sound. If you have something to contribute concerning sound 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 sound 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 sound on 'Folkestone Gerald, where I list national and international places...
