yes nice cold water sounds nice to jump in, but maidstone river has more rat crap in it the actual water, and if you want to fish in it, just run a net along the side and your get about 50 dead fish in it, and probly the odd cat or dog. bla no maidstone river jump for me thank you folkstone sea front is better 2 jump in, me, laim and az man jump in there saturday on a hot day of riding! lush benno
