On Sunday 25th September Ollie & I got up at 3am and loaded all his things into my car. Richard had just got in from work so helped us and we got on the road by 03.30. The roads were deserted and it was great. We stopped for breakfast and then arrived at

Uni church (2)by 08.30am. Ollie had to confirm his attendance and get his room key.

Ollie was keen to show me round Chester town as I had never been here before.

It was lovely with cobbled streets and oldie worldy buildings.

Round the town there is a wall which you can walk round. In the town there is a large clock which is spectacular. 2011_0925Chesteruni00582011_0925Chesteruni0060Clock (2)
