PUBLISHER & ARTWORK IN FOLKESTONE

PUBLISHER & ARTWORK IN FOLKESTONE

AFSANA PRESS I came across this new shop the other day, it is about halfway down The Old High Street on the right. I was pleased to see we have a new publisher in Folkestone. I had a look at the books, and they very kindly gave me a book to read and review called The Resurrected by Joost Hiltermann. This will be published next month on the 5th of May 2026.  I thought I would give them a shout-out as they also have some great prints for sale, as well as all the books. Well worth stopping and having…

HARBOUR ARM FOLKESTONE, KENT UK

   Last week I had a walk along the Harbour Arm. I have not been down there for a couple of years, as I could not walk that far with my hip. I was surprised at how much it had changed.

Unfortunately, Jo wasn’t there, but Dirk very kindly gave me her latest book to read, which I will be taking to Spain next month. I sat for a…

COPACABANA MAGIC AT THE LEAS CLIFF HALL, FOLKESTONE

COPACABANA MAGIC AT THE LEAS CLIFF HALL, FOLKESTONE

Last weekend, I went along to this tribute show with Sue, as Barry Manilow is one of her favourite singers. It was a shame to see that they had not sold the full amount of seats, but it sounded like everyone enjoyed themselves. The first half was full of his many songs, then the second half was all the favourites, which had people singing along. It was a very pleasant evening, and it made a nice change to go listen to something different. Leas Cliff Hall website here.

THE TEA ROOMS IN FOLKESTONE, KENT

THE TEA ROOMS IN FOLKESTONE, KENT

I visited these tea rooms in the middle of town last week, as I had not been in there for a while. Their cakes have always been delicious, but this time we tried the scones. Kara had the savoury one with Brie, and I had the orange one with a really nice orange marmalade. You cannot beat a warm scone with whatever topping you choose; the range of choice is good. The menus can all be found on their website here. A varied selection of products is available from a coffee to a hot lunch, in fact, you can hire…
