Peter, my feelings were very similar, I thought it would be much more grimy and industrial feeling. But everywhere you look new buildings are going up, and what's more is most of these wonderful attractions were free. Transport was cheap as well, £2 for 7 days unlimited bus travel!
manchester tourism board: go manchester!

steelisreal: 7th Dec 2005 - 04:35 GMT
joey we have a store here in monterey california that sells british food, i go get flakes and hobnobs and other things alot.
indykid: 7th Dec 2005 - 10:35 GMT
Joey, I don't know when you last had Smarties but your gonna be dissapointed with the new packaging. Hexaganol tubes...no plastic lids with a letter on!
elaine: 7th Dec 2005 - 10:39 GMT

I had heard rumours that this existed but never saw it. I finally came across it in an empty lot while on a walk.
