Which is the most romantic city, Chester or Canterbury?

[mystress]

Sorry DonFowler,

But I don't think either of them is especially "Romantic",not like say York or Bath or Edinburgh.That is of course if you mean "Romantic" as in take wife/gf away for a weekend?

[DonFowler]

No cop outs please, we need you to choose.

Well,as you have me over a barrel,then I suppose(despite the fact that Canterbury is not far from me) I must chose Chester.

The one (small) thing that loses Canterbury my vote is,it can become "invaded" by French schoolchildren over on a day trip.The children are OK it's just that there can be such large numbers of them!

Ah but you see I'd choose Canterbury as Chester is near me - so I don't find it romantic as it's 'just down the road'!

I suppose it's not where you are but who you're with and what you do!

Heather,

How very true!But as you can see Don rather forced my hand in this,as I don't find either romantic.Perhaps we should have thread as to which IS the most romantic town in the UK?

Chester is the best place - the river boats, the massive park, the walls, the racecourse! If you planning a weekend you must visit the 'Office' (which is the best bar in Chester) You must try their Long Island Ice Tea's......mmmmm, oh and a special drink - which is unique to the Chester office (as it was designed by the chef) called 'Strawberry Evans' Strawberrys & Alcohol, mmmm!!!

Also go on a Friday Night as the DJ is ace and plays whatever you want - Top Bar, Top Drinks, Top DJ, Top Music - and its free to get in open til 1am - not to busy not to quiet and not a scally or stripy jumper in sight!

What more could you want??

Have Fun!!!!
