Bank Bar 7.27 pub bar booze dj :: [comment] :: [delete]
Basement club-type bar in the converted bank vault beneath Kalala. Emphasis on vodka, popular with a youth crowd at the moment. Small smoking terrace at street level, security on the door, sound like your sort of place?

UPDATE: Possibly closed again now, though we saw a barbecue going on in their garden on Friday... Thought this was a private members club, but now they're advertising for a bit of a "pre club" crowd... There were always shop mobility type scooters parked outside, not sure what that audience will make of the house and garage now on offer.

Turd of a journey in this morning, the Victoria line is out completely, which meant the train in was rammed, then Liverpool Street was closed for overcrowding as also the Central line was out... also because the Northern line is now "fixed" the journey up to Chalk Farm is slower as trains are going on the other branch now too... whinge whinge whinge. An hour and a quarter in today, with lots of changes and waiting around, the commute in is looking more feasible daily.
Still getting the property update emails, should forward them on to another chum who's looking in the area... can't remember if we saw this place while we were looking at properties, two beds on what looks like Castle Hill Avenue for 130k, not sure we did as this is the one that has it's own garage, and one we did see that looked like that had two bathrooms... ANYWAY, got to stop looking at properties now, the flat is all going through, deposit paid yesterday and everything, could be completing any day now... the vendor is keen to complete friday, it just depends if the "deed of variation" can be made or not... the freeholder (who is actually a company directed by all the other leaseholders) is OK with the clauses saying "no TV after 11pm" and "floors must be carpetted" being removed from the lease document... perhaps I should have asked for "ground rent to be paid promptly" to be dropped too?
Also new, there's a 3 bedroom house, same price as our flat but doesn't look as nice, 2 bed flat in Sandgate for 125k (handy for Gate 28), and this flat for 125k, it's the first flat I went to see in Kingsnorth Gardens, still on the market... nice place, could be an offer-tastic bargain in there for someone... Cheapest on this list is a 2 bed town centre flat for 95k.

Went to the new Chinese restaurant / bar in Folkestone before the Darkness gig (my Darkness review is up now), and it's not bad. It's a buffet style restaurant, so it's not really competing with the Hop Kweng, but it's much nicer than the other "all you can eat" type affair in town. The bar is smart looking well stocked, they even have Shepherd Neame's Master Brew on draught, but a little austere.
It's on the corner of Bouverie Road West and Castle Hill Avenue...
Opening hours (at the time of writing) are noon to 3.30pm and 5pm to 11pm Monday to Thursday, noon to 3.30pm and 5pm to 11.30pm Saturday and Sunday, and noon to 4.30pm and 5pm to 11pm Sunday... is it really worth shutting for that half-hour gap? Maybe it's a misprint... £4.90 up to £12.90 depending what day / time you go for all you can eat. Good vege selection by the looks.
