What to do in Manchester tonight?

[Kerry]

We are going to meet our duaghter at the station in Manchester tonight, our train gets in at 7.30 and hers at 9.15, giving us 1 and 3 quarter hours to kill. Giving that the shops will be closed what else is there in the Picadilly area that we could do? We will have already eaten and don't fancy just sitting in the pub.

You could walk across to Exchange Square and ride

Yeah we saw that last time we went. So Manchester Picadilly cant be far from Victoria station is it??

[isanda]

If you don't want to walk you can get the tram from Piccadilly station straight to Victoria Station. Shudefill may even be closer than the Victoria stop....that stops outside the printworks centre.

Theres a Starbucks near the Printworks isn't there??

[isanda]

Yes, on the other side of the road, nearer the wheel.

The printworks site is here (http://www.theprintworks.com/) , shame you haven't got time to see an IMAX film!

[Kerry]

Could probably spend a while wandering round that printworks, I thought it was just a massive pub!! Check out the Hard Rock maybe?
