smilinjack 0 Posted May 12, 2012 If memory serves, what I recall of Worcester is the left handed shop there used to be there. Very, erm, handy. At least if you're cursed with the old sinister as I am. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Iano 0 Posted May 18, 2012 just to say City of Worcester was good today - got there early, while waiting for my friend went in a cafe, some female teachers in there (usual good, bad and ugly combination) discussing the emerging middle classes in China - bit much at 10.00 am.Where I work, Aylesbury, half the shops have closed down, not so Worcester. Fab ride, now I've got that far the next step is Wales. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Iano 0 Posted May 19, 2012 Worcester was the scene of the end of the English Civil War, Charles finally defeated there in 1651, Parliamentarians captured a fortification the Royalists built on high ground just outside the city to defend the townParliamentarians then turned the Royalists' own cannon on the town, game over. Charles's army was mostly Scots, survivors deported to America. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
