Folkestone Weekender

Booked into La Bamba Mexican Restaurant, Hythe which I just found via Hythe Live. I think it's not up to date, as I'm sure the fantastic Kai's has closed now. Also going to Chambers again which I'm really looking forward to - proper beer, pool table ...

Tayyab

Apparently authentic Pakistani food, absolutely bloody fantastic curry anyway, and well worth the enormous queue we had to get in on Saturday night. It's small, and it's got no booze license, and it was a bun-fight to get a table (much queue jumping)...

Epping Forest

Here's the only picture we took when we went to Epping Forest last week, it's me inside a big tree... looks like it'd been struck by lightning or something, half the tree had fallen away and it was all scorched.

Folkestone restaurant disappointment

Another great weekend on Folkestone, a bit too boozy though. I woke up on a floor early on Saturday morning not feeling my best, but luckily managed to avoid the strange vomiting bug that brought everyone else down.Timothy's Wine Bar was a major disa...

Naked Women's Wrestling League

There's a wrestler called Spitney Beers!

RE: Naked Women's Wrestling League

That is soooooo fuckin awesome! I wanna wrestle with Roxy Demonica and tag team with The After School Girls and then make ice cream floats with lots of whipped cream!

RE: Naked Women's Wrestling League

And then there is Extreme Chick Fights as well for people who like that kind of stuff.

Another restaurant we can't go back to

Quite a positive and constructive weekend, not as much pubbing as usual. Got a new washing machine delivered, (thankyou very much Dean and Dom for carrying it up the stairs) and done some washing in it. Also got the fireplace sorted, got the quote fo...

New Restaurant

Nice to see some refreshing reviews of Folkestone restaurants. Can I please point you the way of the Hermitage. It's where the Monks Kitchen used to be and I can honestly say that it's food it without par. I can recomend the duck. It was delish!

You can all rest easy now

The tickets showed up...

It's so nice to have someone interested!

No objections to the scaffolding, I wrote a letter to the other people in the block, one of them passed it on to the chairman of the building, who lives next door. She emailed back to say no problem, and she'd used the same company to do her fireplac...

Vegetarian and vegan cuisine isn't just for protesters anymore

So says sanfrancisco.com... we've picked our honeymoon now, and it will involve a stop in San Fran, so this restaurant sounds good!San Francisco's Millennium, located in the Savoy Hotel, features a completely animal-free menu and serves artfully pres...

Bad Curry

Went to Eastern Nights on Saturday evening, at the top of the Old High Street for a curry, as it had been recommended. Normally in Folkestone we'd go to The New Delhi, and it's always good, but OH NO, I had to speak up and insist we try something new...

In defence of

Hmmm... maybe you got them on a bad night. It can be quiet, and that combined with the fact that the chef likes high romantic classical music playing in his kitchen can make it a slightly surreal experience for those used to Ravi Shankar and loud con...

"When the rest of the track is finished in 2007 it will be possible to commute from St Pancras to Folkestone in 35 minutes"

That sounds a bit quicker than I'd heard before, but so says propertyinvesting.net... it also adds:Folkestone is a nice town generally � no really bad areas. Down by the harbour it's got "further to go" than other parts of the town. Much of Folkeston...

Restored to full health, and wealth, beside the sea

The Telegraph does a feature on Folkestone property... Good work! They say:For several very good reasons, this town is abuzz. The Channel Tunnel is just up the road, its high-speed rail link to London is being extended into Folkestone's two stations ...

AF&RM CAMRA says Gate 28 is reopening as a pizza restaurant

A new bar / restaurant in Hythe

Also went to Earl Brownes in Hythe yesterday, it's new, and it's quite swanky... an interesting mix of styles, from the tudor beams in the bar, back to the bedouin style drapes at the back. A bit bright in there, but very nice. No real ales, but they...

A cut in UK interest rates next month now appears likely

I used to hate stories like this, but these days I owe far more than I have in savings, so this is great news! I shouldn't really have any savings with a mortgage, it's probably more efficient to pay my ISA off my mortgage (zzzzz.... anyone still awa...

Millenium vegan restaurant

Unfortunately not, the nearest one's probably Canterbury

Folkestone is progressing though, we've got a Subway now, opening this week. Hmm, is this a good thing? Anyway, our pizza express dinner was in London. Are you an ex resident then? Check out Folkestone Gerald for a list of what we've got......

La Bougie reopens as Escondido

Doesn't really look like it's up to speed, but it reopened on the second. Good to see these premises in use again. We're visiting on Friday, so will report back. Menu looks a bit pub grub at first glance...Escondido is Spanish for "Hidden" and is a p...

Gandhi (well, Ben Kingsley)

As I am a bit of a fat knacker, I tend to wear elastic waisted trousers. One time when I was out for a late night birthday drink with my housemates, with a just a pair of jogging troosers on, commando stylee, I was stood at the bar, with a pint in ea...

Papa Roach Geezer/Frontman Coby Dick

What do you think they were doing? Having lunch of course!! I was waiting for my Visa results from the American Embassy around the corner and found this little Italian Resteraunt to go have my dinner. I'm sitting down to eat my Chicken All' Allegio o...
