A little while ago, thanks to @nerdydaytrips I discovered Sick to Death in #Chester. Today I went with my youngest, who loved it.

Bonus Photo of the Day 2 1st February 2026.

Amber and Chris from the band Nomad, at the Royal Mail Club in Chester, 22nd April 2003.
I knew the bassist through Four Star Mary (them again!) and Junk Culture, and he invited me over to see them, and take some photos.
I didn't see them as often as the other bands featured today, or some of the other bands I worked with, but they can be traced directly back to that first fateful night.

Not quite the Great Wall of China, but the somewhat smaller city wall of #Chester. Even in the wind and rain, it was still an interesting amble. I learned of the existence of the word "murenger", a wall repairer/ maintainer, an Old English word derived from the even older French "muragier", the person in charge of collecting and administering the wall tax. I hadn't been to Chester since I was a student, and my last visit conjured up very vague memories, so it was a nice refresher to be able to appreciate the architecture and history of the place as a "grown-up". While I was there, took a few pictures of the Tudor-style timber structures, including the one below.

Picture, in the rain, of a narrow, cut block, sandstone bridge, with four steps leading up to the bridge table. The bridge and path, which is laid with flagstones, form part of a medieval city wall that has been maintained over the centuries.Picture of a black beam and white plastered building in the Tudor style of the Middle Ages, each upper floor slightly overhanging the floor immediately below it. In the foreground on the right of frame, a carved upright post ornementation, with projecting curved portions, also painted black.

Day 27
#365project

Took a trip to #Chester to see a movie today and had the opportunity to meet up with @r3ck0n3r for coffee beforehand. We were so busy nattering that I didn't take many pics but I just love the #TudorArchitecture there so much that I couldn't resist snapping this in passing.

In the imposing medieval church at Gresford, in #Wrexham county but not far from #Chester, there is a remarkable artefact - a portable #Roman altar. It was found during work on the drains some years ago. It's dedicated to Fortuna and she can clearly be seen with her shears. #ancientsky #paganism
