Looks like the sun was out at Chester, well done Mark.

I have a few photos of it passing just down the road from home on the outward run.

They can be seen here.

Ta Paul,from what I remember it was the only place on the entire run where there was more than a glimpse of sunlight! Within an hour,it was gone!

Nice shots yourself,you did well in the conditions. :)

Shame I wasnt in Chester to see the Tornado, it was just a little trip down the road for me and it could have been cool to see...

I need someone to tell me these things. News is hard to come by in Warrington... :D

Great pictures Mark. Some look like if they where taken some 60 years ago, with Tornado in 'slightly weathered' condition rather than the clean 'pristine preservation' condition she and the other (real) survivors are normally in.

Thanks for sharing
