Starbucks delayed until July

Starbucks delayed until July

Further to [Ciro Citterio](http://www.folkestonegerald.com/folkestone/80/73//As-one-store-closes.html my earlier comments about Starbucks]], today's Herald has it that the store won't be opening until July now... do you think we put them off with the comments here? It also says in the paper that the [store opposite Debenhams is the front runner for the location, hmm, [Ciro Citterio" title="did they only get that from here | That was my guess for where the store would go last week")? That's the second time something's appeared here first, it's nice to know that the good people of Folkestone are reading!

I took a walk around the town today to see if there was any progress, and things seemed to have sped up a little along Rendezvous Street, could that be the spot? Anyone else any ideas?

This is my site The Folkestone Gerald that I built in a fury of excitement when we first came to Folkestone in approximately 2004. I'd been a frequent visitor for a few years before that so I am technically one of those Down From Londons you get now. 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 to the area. 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. I am not Gerald by the way, this comes from a pretend newspaper in an episode of Brasseye or something, the Portsmouth Gerald, and how there is a local paper here called the Folkestone Herald. Puns like this are great aren't they? Do get in touch if you have something to offer, email anythign @ this domain, or try @folkestone or @pauly on the twitter.
