Editor’s Note:
We all get caught up in what we are doing right now. With things always developing so fast, sometimes it’s worth stopping, looking backwards and reflecting on what we have achieved. Scorcher! The heat is on. As the summer months arrive, there always feels like an extra emphasis to get out and experience all of the delights that the county has to offer.
Make it your task this July/August to go and visit a Kent town that you’ve never been to before. Take in the sights, sounds, shops, arts and festivals. Take a punt.
In this issue, so many of our subjects did exactly that - stuck their neck out and said ‘let’s do it’. Former doorman turned musician Charlie Jeer did it, the team at The Art Club in Dover headed back to the high street when many told them not to, while photographer Chris McAndrew risked the wrath of a national newspaper during his first professional shoot!
Plus we take a stroll with ParkBathe, get addicted to tufting with Ellen Russell and discover Kent’s own cabinet of mysteries.
Enjoy
