You are filling me in on parts of England I missed seeing recently.<br />Also,in the process of doing some research recently on Australian convicts sent from England to Australia I was gobsmacked at the amount of hangings in England pre-transportation years, for the most trivial offences, often of a poverty-related nature. The prisons were always overcrowded, and it was a quick way of clearing them.<br /> In the English records I scrolled through on the internet, the name age, sex and offences are recorded- very sad, as they took place in large numbers on a regular basis,in most towns.<br />We laugh here in Australia, that although we have a convict-based history as a nation - the weather and sunny beaches turned out in our favour compared to England!<br />Thanks for an interesting and informative post.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8023888201187440830.post-32778077320081625852012-07-20T13:43:43.689-07:002012-07-20T13:43:43.689-07:00Oh Sandi, I'm sure I wouldn't be disappoin...Oh Sandi, I'm sure I wouldn't be disappointed.

I'd so delight in seeing a walled city--even if the city has grown beyond the wall. I have been in England for a brief visit, but I never got to Chester. Now I can see what I missed. Thank you.

Today I was leafing through some old appointment diaries to check the date of a past medical exam. I was looking at the one from 2001. I saw that we were booked in Chester in a bed and breakfast for 5 days. The first day would have been 9/13/01. Of course we never made it since all the airports were closed because of 9/11 – so we did not fly out of Atlanta on 9/12 and did not visit Chester.Vagabondehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10774109692564954568noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8023888201187440830.post-45276674516719849092012-07-19T20:20:15.653-07:002012-07-19T20:20:15.653-07:00These were really fun to look at and read about. ...These were really fun to look at and read about.
