Chester Zoo

What can be said about Chester Zoo that hasn’t been said before?

For those that don’t know, Chester Zoo is a zoological garden situated at Upton by Chester, in Chester, Cheshire, England. It was opened in 1931 by George Mottershed and his family. It is one of the UK’s largest zoos at 125 acres, housing in the region of 20,000 animals. Quite a staggering number really. Imagine the food bill there every week!!

Visiting Chester Zoo today with it’s acres and acres of sprawling land it is hard to imagine it’s humble beginnings.

We are sure many of you watched the BBC drama about Chester Zoo back in 2014. It is a drama based on the Mottershed family and their dreams of opening a zoo without bars. Because of the Mottershed family’s dedication, the City has plenty reason to be proud of their Zoo.

The Chester Zoo Experience

Having grown up in Chester I have witnessed the many changes over the years. To say that they have been quite spectacular is an understatement. It seems like there is something new to see with every visit. So much more than just money has been poured into Chester Zoo’s development. There has quite clearly been much thought, dedication and devotion and many, many man hours invested. In addition, there is always plenty of staff on duty, who are extremely helpful if you need guidance or directions.

We in Chester are lucky because it is right on our doorstep. For any visitors coming to our famed, historic City, a visit to Chester Zoo is not only a must but it is also, most of all, an incredible experience. And it is also an educational one at that.

Having an annual membership and living only 2 miles away, means we can visit on a regular basis. Consequently, each visit is unique as there is so much to see. Furthermore, it is not only popular with the locals either. Walking around the zoo it is noticeable that there are a multitude of non local accents to be heard. As a result, the Zoo is constantly busy. It is also worth noting that, understandably so, the Zoo is particularly busy during school holidays.

What is Tea Tree Oil? Will it wipe out Finger Fungus and Fungus Infected Toenails?

First I'd like to get started on off with a quotation from Wikipedia that explains Tea Tree Oil and anybody could! "Tea tree oil or melaleuca oil is normally a clear to very pale golden hydrophobic essential oil with a fresh camphoraceous odor. It really is extracted from the leaves of the Melaleuca alternifolia which can be indigenous to the northeast coast of New South Wales, Australia. The oil has beneficial medical homes (including antiseptic and antifungal, antibacterial action), and is also believed to have beneficial cosmetic homes." - Source Wikipedia As we are able to see from that quotation the oil is antifungal, and really should help to fight against Finger Fungus and Fungus Infected Toenails! This is good to know, but is it strong enough to do it alone? Well no one knows that for certain, but they do know that fungus looks very disgusting, and that is why there are coming a few remedies out there which can help. These topical home remedies use more than just ...

How to Get Rid of Puberty Pimples

Are you looking for information on how to get rid of teenage acne ? Then you have come to the right place. One thing to note about  puberty pimples , as teenage acne is also called, is that almost every teen gets them. The acne will appear when the oily substance referred to as sebum clogs up your pores. After that, pimples will start popping up on your shoulders, chest, back, neck, and –  most importantly  – face. However, puberty acne does not constitute a serious health risk. The worst that can happen is that if it is severe, it might leave permanent scars and damage your self-esteem. That said, the sebum that your body produces in excess during your teen years is actually a good thing. This is because your body needs it to fend off harmful bacteria and keep your skin waterproof. Alongside excess oil, your pubescent skin also sloughs off cells from the skin at a rate higher than normal. These skin cells, as well as the extra oil, will try to get out of your body by traveling throug...
