Default Manchester visit

Well, am here and so far have only be rained on twice.Manchester in Autumn- Melbourne spring...same !
HAVE BEEN CATCHING UP ON THE BEER TASTING.i AM INFORMED THAT THE STRANGEWAYS BODDINGTONS BREWERY HAS BEEN SHUT DOWN- IT APPEARS THE ENGLISH ARE BECOMING A NATION OF COLD DESIGNER BEER DRINKERS.
mY HOME TOWN OF SALE HAS SPROUTED MORE PUBS THAN ..woops , stuck on capitals...more pubs than St.Kilda .
There is an air of respectability about the place- flowers in the main street, sweeper guys , but people still chuck their rubbish and cigarette buts on the floor.
Have fallen fowl to two lots of dog poo...guess I got out of the habit of looking down as I walk- unless I'm in the bush...
Having a great time !
REGARDS TO All,

yeah, am a bit of a techno numpty.. must ask my IT expert (Ian) to help me out with that one.
Plenty of rain means you may have to stay indoors at the pub mate

cheers,
