Dukes nighclub: U have to dukes it up!!, Chelmsford

 katherinium Says:  If you're young (under 25) and want a night of crazy dancing and heavy drinking, this is the place to go in Chelmsford! You walk in after queueing for quite a long time, and the first thing that hits you is the smell of cheesy feet. I don't know why but its pretty strong!... 

Essex Nightlife

Essex Nightlife, Chelmsford

 Gili_S Says:  I found the nightlife in Essex very interesting and different of course from what I am used to in Finland so it was interesting and lots of fun. However, I did not spend here long enough to find out all about it so I will have to come back again. 

Yates

Edwards

Edwards, Chelmsford

 Gili_S Says:  Edwards seems the most popular place in this town, at list when I was here in winter 2005. It was very crowded with lots of people drinking of course, the music was loud and you will have to queue for the bar as well. 

Shopping  

HMV

HMV, Chelmsford

 Gili_S Says:  A music addicted like me cannot pass by a CD store without checking out what do they have inside, so, this time, I got out of the store with a classic Roxy Music CD.
