Free food and an important message about food waste. I am now eating a rather nice vegetarian curry.

I’ve been meaning to get in touch with the Pubs of Manchester blog to ask if they knew the name of the pub I’d found the remnants of. They beat me to it- it used to be the Coach and Horses. Link to this post!  The Manchester Cowboy, originally uploaded by spinneyhead. David Thomas Jones is perhaps better known as Davy Jones of the Monkees. We found this headstone dedicated to him in Gorton Cemetery. He was born in Openshaw and appeared in Coronation Street before heading to the States to become a heart throb, so it’s an appropriate place for a memorial. Link to this post!  Debdale Reservoir, originally uploaded by spinneyhead. There are some surprisingly beautiful little nooks within a short ride of Gorton. Link to this post! Funding cuts have lead to Manchester’s Museum of Science and Industry, the National Media Museum in Bradford and the National Rail Museum in York facing closure. The cuts were part of this moronic “austerity” plan the Government is so keen on, despite the fact it’s not only not working but making things worse. Sneakily privatising the NHS (something almost everyone in the cabinet will benefit from financially) and bringing in policies that kill people are far worse than the closure of a few museums, but it gives us a taste of the wasteland that’s going to be left behind by this bunch of morons.

This is the Air Training Corps, making me fear for the future of our armed forces by going the wrong way. More pictures when I’ve edited and uploaded the ones from the camera. Link to this post! I probably shouldn’t go to this, too much caffeine plays havoc with the ulcer. Chorlton Coffee Festival 28-30 June 2013. Link to this post!  Granada Cleaners, originally uploaded by spinneyhead. This place is directly opposite work and I only noticed yesterday just how Link to this post!  Envirolution, Platt Fields, originally uploaded by spinneyhead. The elephant god (Ganesh?) is out of place amongst all the recycling and eco stalls, but it watches over them anyway. Link to this post!  Pop up bikes, originally uploaded by spinneyhead. If it were on the other side of the centre Pop Up Bikes might become my new favourite coffee shop. It’s an excellent idea- a cafe in a railway arch with bike parking and room to work on your ride included. www.popupbikes.co.uk Link to this post!
via Manchester is the most linguistically diverse city in Europe | UK news | The Observer. I think this is awesome, though I sometimes have problems speaking my one language (I swear, one day Charlotte and I are going to have a conversation completely in grunts). Obviously the reactionarie are going to tell me that living in a world class city is somehow a bad thing. Link to this post! |
