Feeling the credit crunch in Folkestone? KCC apparently are

Little old Kent county Council got a mention on this morning's Guardian Daily Podcast. Apparently Kent County Council had rather a lot of (our) money invested in an Icelandic bank that just went bust :-(

Sources etc when I get home.

This is my website The FG that I built in a fury of excitement when we first moved here in approximately 2004. I'd been a frequent visitor for a while before that so I am technically one of those Down From Londons you get nowadays. The site was a lot more dynamic with a gig calendar and voting for favourite places and things, and I know it was a useful resource for those who were thinking of moving here. Now I've moved out of Folkestone again (though only to Hythe) it doesn't get as much attention as it used to. Ironic really as The town is now becoming the exciting place we knew it was about to become. My name is not Gerald by the way, the name comes from a pretend newspaper in an episode of The Day Today or something, the Portsmouth Gerald, and how there is a local newspaper here called the Folkestone Herald. Puns like this are great aren't they? Do get in touch if you have anything to contribute, email anythign @ this domain, or try @folkestone or @pauly on the twitter.
