Have a great day tomorrow.🙂

I'm sorry that I can't come. It's not the trains, they're fine......
This fence business is stressing me out too much. I want to be home to see what's going on.....:(
 
HaVE a wonderful day everyone xx

..... and don't forget the German Christmas Market round the corner from the pub in Albert Square. Go out at dusk to it for your bratwurst and german beer and the giant santa on the Town Hall.
 
Forgot to mention there is also a car park at the side of Whitefield Tram station for the trams.
Its on YOUR side of Manchester if you decided to go that route.
You would need an "Altrincham" tram not a "Piccadilly" one from Whitefield because the Alty tram would take you to St.Peter's Square which is just around the corner from the pub.
On way back you would need a "Bury" tram.

Its just a good option if you are driving from Glasgow, Junction 17 on the M60 is two hours drive from the Scottish border.

If you go to Hazel Grove you are driving 15-20 miles past Manchester then going back on yourself.

Thanks for the info McDonagh I think this is were I will probably head for and park at Whitefield.
 
where do I put my soap box on the coach?

Not sure whether we can make it tomorrow. Germs are in residence so we'll have to see in the morning.

Paracetomol and decaff coffee are being administered orally as we speak.🙄

OH just reminded me that the Car Park at Prestwich ( across the road from the Prestwich Tram stop ) is now ?2-50 a day ( it used to be just two hours ).
So that is actually a better option than Whitefield because its two tram stops nearer town and a bigger car park. Prestwich is just half a mile south of Junction 17 on the M60 and the car park is on Fairfax Road next to a big church called Our Lady of Grace. The postcode of the church is M25 3AS if you are using satnav.

You still need an Altrincham tram from Prestwich NOT a Piccadfilly one, because as I said the Alty tram will take you to St. Peter's Square, right on top of the venue.
