Greetings!
We are promoting anti Black Friday here in the Hamlet. No crowds, no queues, no trampling.

Shop downtown Chester this weekend and know that the Fo'c'sle Pub is just around the corner when you need a cleansing pale ale between purchases.
Ahhh, isn't that the way shopping should be?

These 18-year-old bluesmen have been getting around touring festivals and showcases throughout Canada and the USA.  902-275-3933.

A good conversation is like a mini skirt - short enough to retain interest, but long enough to cover the subject.
