COMING TO OTLEY

Well I made it to Otley, this place is just great. It's like living a fridge. Actually ive been very surprised by England. The people are very friendly and the weather isn't that bad, when the sun's out. And ive just been laying back taking all the Otley has to offer in. I'll start by telling ya about the township that is Otley. Well Otley dates back to the seventh century (so it's quiet old) Anglo-saxon times (cool). It was and still is a market town surrounded by outstanding dales. Thay use some of the shops and copshop in the show HEARTBEAT, and these even cobbled stone lanes (cool). There's a hugh mountain side that runs for ages which the Otleytearians call THE CHEVIN. From the top of the Chevin you can see the whole countryside and the township. The old All saints church in the township dates back to the eleveth century. You might know an old bloke called Thomas Chippendale, well he was born in Otley (1718) and started his beaut funiture at this place. And there's a beaut river that run's through the town called RIVER WHARFEDALE. And most important thing is the pubs. There's heaps of them around town and on the outskirts.
