I am so pleased that someone is concerned about Mr Godden's spate of bad luck, I am sure that Jimmy will appreciate this community spirit - after all Mr Godden has always had the towns' best interests at heart. It is good to know that there is one de...

Poor Jimmy Godden

I do feel sorry for Jimmy Godden as it appears that anything he owns seems to catch fire. I mean it's wasn't so long ago that some b****** set fire to another property that he owned (Mr B's Arcade on Margate seafront), burning it to the ground. Then ...

Possibly the best Lost episode so far

Tune in on Sunday if you've not already seen it. New characters again, which I find a bit annoying, but a great episode, it went some way to hinting at possible answers for thing. Big old chunks of Bill and Ted and Back to the Future techniques too, ...

Try and get a local paper

There's very little info online actually, www.lcrhq.co.uk might have info on the high speed rail link, AFAIK still not due until the end of 2009, and that's not allowing for any new postponements. I made the move from London with all this in mind tho...

RE: No casino for Folkestone seafront

THANK GOD! That Linda bird is an idiot. A Casino would have brought only more poverty and deprivation - and would have made it more likely that the council would go for the Jimmy Godden tower plan. We don't want that!
