Folkestone and Stokey in the same Guardian column?

Jan212005
Recommended / related

The Guardian's Backbencher column today has a mention for Stoke Newington's own 73 and the fact that the reality TV winning political candidate has announced his intention to stand against Michael Howard in Folkestone. More on voterodders.org. With all the free publicity he could probably get in somewhere, frightening. It's like pop idol but real, can anything be done?

Our replacement of Angel series two disk 3 still didn't work, so taking it to Folkestone for the weekend to watch it there...

Ew, Queen tickets go on sale in the morning. Only Brian May and Roger Taylor, John Deacon has better sense (I met him once you know, at a Pobitch party), and Paul Rodgers of Free is replacing Fred. Blee, you might as well go and see We Will Rock You. Dates here, from 10am Saturday. But still don't do it.

How smart is this? It's the life story of the guy who makes the minipops pictures, but with BRANCHES. What if he didn't go to uni? You probably don't know him but it's an interesting idea. Seen any rip offs of this yet?

On the subject of art projects the wacky Old Street pranks I mentioned before are still in place, but getting gross now. The milk bottles on the breakfast table laid out on top of a bus stop have gone really rotten, and for some reason the whole things' not been washed away by the weather. Next time, whoever you are, use white paint instead of milk, please. Hmm, I have a picture of this on my phone I think, but I rarely take pics off the phone again...

I find it a tad worrying that one of Craigs life options was death with his killer remaining uncaught. But its a FAB idea! I don't think I could think of enough options to do something like that.

So how far are you along the wedding list then?

Hmm, not much progress since last time

I have gathered up addresses of the invitees, and found someone who could provide the band I think. Man it's hard work... how is married life?

Married life is suprisingly good. Anyway all that hard work will pay off on the day... one step at a time and all that.

Over to you, discussion about anything local, but please be considerate... Folkestone on TV, Kent gigs, Find a flatmate, rent a room, property queries, current news, what's new, local events, for sale, local services, what I like about Folkestone, ask questions, offer advice, plug yourself... the more it's used the more useful a resource it will become. If you want a gig listed click here to add it (fixed now!), or just click here to post a message...
