⬆️RE: As one store closes... - 8075
Getting a Starbucks is not a sign of regeneration... They are everywhere. They're just expanding their presence. They just don't have one here yet. Simple as that.
A sushi bar opening up in Folkestone - that would be a sign of regeneration... and of my dreams coming true... Mmmmm... sushi.... slobber...

This is part of my site The 'Gerald that I set up in a fury of excitement when I first came to Folkestone sometime in '04. I'd been a frequent visitor for a few years previous to that but I am technically one of those Down From Londons you get nowadays. The site used to be updated more frequently with a calendar of events and voting for best venues + things, and I know it was a handy reference for those who were moving here. Now Iʼve moved out of Folkestone again (though only a couple of miles) it doesnʼt get as much attention as it used to. Ironic really as Folkestone itself is becoming the exciting place we knew it was just about to. I am 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 arenʼt they? Do contact me if you have anything to offer, email anythign @ this domain, or try @folkestone or @pauly on the twitter.
