Sorry the site has been a bit flakey recently

I've been crippling the server this runs on. Well you have really, there are too many of you, the site is too popular. I had some inefficient database stuff going on, which was causing problems, but hopefully that is fixed now. Thanks for sticking with me! The hosts are uksolutions.co.uk I have been with them for BLIMEY over ten years now, thanks to them for being patient with me and thanks to other sites that are on the same box and better behaved than I am. Like thequietus.com I'm sure we share a server...

This is my website The FG that I built in a fury of excitement when I first came to Folkestone in approximately '04. I'd been a frequent visitor for a while previous to that so I am technically one of those DFLs you get nowadays. The site was updated more frequently with a gig calendar and voting for favourite venues and things, and I hear it was a useful reference 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 becoming the exciting place we always thought it was about to become. My name is not Gerald BTW, this comes from a pretend newspaper in an episode of Brasseye or something, the Portsmouth Gerald, and how there is a local newspaper here called the Folkestone Herald. Puns like this are GRATE aren't they? Do get in touch if you have something to offer, email anythign @ this domain, or try @folkestone or @pauly on Twitter.
