The team at S&G joined up with three amigos, to take part in Folkestone’s annual boxing day dip. The weather leading up to Christmas had been severe, and there was talk of disclaimers and risk, but we were not to be deterred. Dressed as city bankers, in suits and bowler hats, we brandished our brollies and copies of the FT, and brayed for bankers rights to bigger bonuses, before striding into the cruel sea, to be dealt some kind of punishment.
Spacious & Gracious is a site about living and being in Folkestone. We expect to sometimes be irreverent, and hopefully to be amusing and entertaining. Please do send over any Folkestone based news and we will do our best to include it on the site.
