Rochester

Not being particularly pleased with the current schooling situation for the youngest two – Ms Copper will be heading back to boarding school in Germany after the first of the year.

Looking for a different choice for The Mole (he wants to stay in the UK), he and I were off to Rochester, Kent for an interview this afternoon.

Ignoring some of the other history of the town – I was more interested in St Catherine’s Hospital which is on Star Hill across the street from our destination.

nor the cathedral and a history relating to Dickens I would suppose.

Heading home in the dark – we spent a quiet evening at home watching yet another DvD of CSI: since the kids are all out of school now for vacation.
