Although I was eager to be there, once the date was decided it clashed with other plans previously arranged - why can't birthdays be more flexible?  :P

So I'm also sulking but hope you all have a great day with lots of fun and I'll be awaiting sight of the piccies.

Hi jakky

The Britannia is really well located - only about 5 mins from the principal shops and maybe 10 mins to the 'Cathedral Triangle'.  Don't get sucked into the new Selfridges though - you might never emerge! :)  If you've never been to Manchester before, head for St Anne's Square for a good spot of retail therapy!

cheers

Paul

That sounds good Paul,

the fight between research and shopping will be a tough one for an addictive shopper like me, husband has been warned ;D
