It's another chain though

Apparently in Stoke Newington (where I lived before Folkestone) there were protests when Fresh and Wild were planning to move into Church Street, as it was a chain and would upset the unique villageyness of the place.

This is my website The FG that I built in a fury of excitement when I first came here in approximately 2004. I'd been a regular visitor for a few years previous to that but I am technically one of those DFLs you get now. The site was a lot more dynamic with a calendar of events and voting for favourite venues and stuff, and I know it was a handy reference for those who were thinking of moving to the area. Now I've moved out of Folkestone again (though only a couple of miles) it doesn't get as much attention as it used to. Ironic really as Folkestone itself is becoming the exciting place we always thought it was just about to. My name is not Gerald BTW, the name comes from a fake newspaper in an episode of The Day Today or something, the Portsmouth Gerald, and how there is a local paper here called the Folkestone Herald. Puns like this are GRATE aren't they? Do contact me if you have something to offer, email anythign @ this domain, or try @folkestone or @pauly on Twitter.
