We were well pleased to have been there when the Chaplain decided to come forward and address the people in the Cathedral.
He spoke briefly re things of the world, and prayed for those in need. It was a lovely prayer, and much needed at this time.
Being a Christian (although not of this particular denomination), I fully support the need for prayer and supporting those in need. We basically need to take our eyes off ourselves for a change, and see what we can do for others.
Okay, I will get off my soap box now ;) lol

In July each year, for one weekend there is the infamous Canterbury Beer Festival.

You buy tokens and there are beers from all the local breweries and some European one too.
Ill post more when I get this years exact details.

If there is football on, or anything that England are playing in we will walk about with flags draped over us!!! We are not so patriotic but just proud to be English!
It doesnt mean that we are "hooligans", just enjoying the festivities. Although we all know that there are a few who like to ruin everything for others.

We are university town, we have 2 uni's and a college along with an art school. So the culture here is quite diverse.
During term time on a Friday and Saturday night the town is buzzing and much busier than it is out of term time.
When we go out in the evening to eat, we usually make a reservation in advance! Ive many a time seen people walk into restaurants on special occasions such as valentines day, just to be turned away! So if you fancy eating somewhere its a good idea to book, even if you only do it on that day!

It's one of the most magnificent surviving examples of English Gothic architecture...
It was all begun in 1377, probably designed & excuted under the direction of master mason Henry Yevele...
