Had a bird there once. didn't last long, what with the distance and her being a bit out my league. You can do her if you see her.

Other than that, are you going with mates, business or what?

I think one of the birds one of our lot pulled in Ibiza was from Chester, allegedly she was dirty as fuck although I was so blindo on drink and ching I had no idea what was going on despite the fact his bed was a mere sheet of glorified cardboard divider from my room.

Not that that answers your question Tans. I've always found Chester to be quite pleasant and relatively affluent, although they are fundamentally welsh fuckers. Dazzza's old haunt I think.

Loads to do and a cracking city for a weekend but depends what you’re looking to do.

First port of call is probably check if there are any races on while you're there.  They do start in May but I think it's the bank holiday weekend but if there's something on it's worth a look and if you're a bit flush splash out on your tickets.  The races are a quality day out for a bit of a punt and a few beers especially if this weather holds.

Trip around the City Walls are a necessity.  You’ll see most of the city and there are a few nice bars for a stop off on the way round.  Plus when the place is heaving it’s the best way to navigate about.  

Bars and restaurants are in abundance and there’s something to suit everyone from quieter traditional real pubs to more modern places packed full of the beautiful people.  Food wise a trip to the Mongolian BBQ is a must as is Bollicini the Italian but you can’t go far wrong.

Again with the shops they’re in abundance and worth a nose about.

   Knew Daz would be along for an update...I nearly moved there donkeys ago....and used to go there a lot.  In my day there didn't seem to be much in the way night life...beyond The Bear and Billet, and  junkies trying to get smack form Blacon and The Lache.  

  Alderley Edge....if you're going, read some Alan Garner first, nominally kids books but really a bit more than that...Wierdstone of Brisingamen,  Red Shift. and The Owl Service.

  Garner reckons the footballers ghetto has ruined the area.  8)

That probably rules out a night to the dogs as well then, which is a quality night out.

You can’t really go far wrong.  The nightlife is and has always been a bit poor in Chester and at weekends I’d probably knock any ideas of a club on the head as you do get a few idiots making the trip in from some of the surrounding Towns and causing a bit of bother but nothing at all to write home about.  

Pubs are quality though and make sure you get off the beaten track a little as there are some quality establishments tucked away in the nooks and crannies of the old Streets.

I used to go out with a lass from Alderley Edge although she wasn't all posh - she reckoned she was from "the rough end" of Alderley Edge  :D

Not long got back, was a good couple of days, did the roman walls and all that.

Also got to see some domestic violence which was quite interesting.
Fuck me he didn't half hit her  :shock:
