Manchester

Wednesday

After sleeping in Glasgow for the night due to the early bus trip to Manchester Jane jumped up bright and early to make use of the free breakfast and I took the opportunity to get another 20 mins sleep.

The bus took 4 and a half hours to get to Manchester and once again I slept most of the way. Jane must love traveling with me : )

It was about a 20 min walk from the bus station to my mate Heavey's (James) work where we dropped off our bags and headed to the pub while he finished work. Stopped off at the Walkabout (Aussie pub for those of you that don't know). VB, Tooheys New, Tooheys Extra Dry.. I was in heaven.

Heavey turned up and we headed to Akbar's for a traditional Manchester Curry before hitting a couple of pubs around the city and out by Salford. The plan was go and watch FC United play Salford City in a preseason friendly then hit a few more pubs. James had to work the next day so we kept it pretty low key.

Well in to Heavey for making a big fry up for breakky with black and white pudding.. love that stuff.

So here we are ready to head off again. It's 10:30 and our bus to Liverpool leaves soon. Gearing up for a couple of nights with the Dodger. I can feel a couple of hangovers coming on!!
