We arrived back home from Manchester last night and what can I tell you about
Manchester ...nothing!!!!!!!!! I really looked for forward to walk around the city, have a look in the shops, sit in a cafe, have lunch at some nice place ...but this didn't happen at all. Big disappointment for me. What I can say is that the trip didn't start of that great during the week but it looked like it was going to turn out ok during the friday...I stayed positive.
We end up outside the city center and spent the whole saturday in a flipping shopping center called the Trafford Shopping center who had the same shops that u find here in Cork. Lucky us we didn't take the bus because I asked someone before getting on how long the bus ride would take and it would have taken us an hour on the bus, so we took a cab who took 15 min instead. Anyhow it was a bit irritating because I didn't want to go to the shopping center at all ... who wants to go to a shopping center when u have a whole city to explore???? (...as well shopping centers are for mothers and their kids). The people we were there with told us to go there to meet them up and in the cab called us and said they were going somewhere else and said they would meet us up there around 2 or 3 ... the time passed and by the time they showed up it was 5.........grrrrrrrrrr.
For me the whole saturday was destroyed. Saying that we end up in a lovely bar in the Hilton on the 23rd floor, Cloud 23 with an amazing view and before that in a bar/restaurant called The Living Room.
And form what I could see of the city though the rain it look nice. I have to go back for a weekend again to see Manchester ... Like I said before I have been told it is a great city but the city wasn't given any chance by me and I can't really say that I have been to Manchester either it feels like. I hope to go again in autumn for a weekend and one thing is for sure I'm going to stay in the city center (HERE).
Now Im going to watch the latest episode of Entourage...tjo tjo.
First I have to get the Muppet stop playing Call of Duty ...( my biggest mistake I bought him the game for xmas..silly silly me)
Later!
