editor’s note:
Yet again, we don’t even know where to begin with what’s happening in the UK right now.
So we aren’t going to worry about it… for a bit. Kent’s creative community continues to march on defiantly despite everything, while the hospitality industry does its best to avoid being Trussed up quicker than a Christmas Tory, sorry, turkey. And that’s all any of us can do. Our best work.
In this edition, ‘cene sticks to its mantra of shining a light on the people and places making every day a little bit brighter. We have musicians, photographers, comedians, extreme sports nuts, fashion designers, poets and a shedload of cracking places to eat, drink and play. As we said before, change is coming… we all know it.
Enjoy
