Day trip out to Rochester

A day trip to Rochester with Olivia Rowlands, Ruth Davis, Clare O’Neill & Elle Ramsey with phrase bingo and tea.

Charles Dickens spent his boyhood years in the town of Rochester and several of his book refer (Pickwick Papers, Great Expectations, The Uncommercial Traveller, The Mystery of Edwin Drood) to his time spent living there. Rochester makes a big effort to make the Dickens references clear to the visitor as its selling point. If you like your fish and chip supper to be in the 'Dickensian' style, make Rochester your destination.

The town crier greets us on entry to the town. In his address he advertises his entry into the City of London the week next, to take part in the Chinese Year Celebrations. Presumably, as s type of cultural ambassador for all that Rochester stands for.
