Manchester Christmas Markets 2010 - pic heavy

[stanski]

We had a nice time at the Manchester Christmas market on Saturday thought I would share some pictures.

 

Stew and Jayne braved the snow to pop down for the weekend (safe journey back you two )

 

I understand Mike and Chesterfield were also at the market this weekend - we did'nt see them but guessing they did not see much of the market other than the Beer Keller!

 

If you've never been to a Christmas market before , try the Manchester one its worth the trip - take the tram or a taxi though (it finishes on the 21st December.)

 

A few pics along the way - you have to get your mulled wine and spicy hotdogs here followed by Cherry Strudel

 

 

 

Manchesters Zippy Father Christmas (likes his pies me thinks! )

 

 

 

Nessie must have followed Stew down - probably wanted a spicy hot dog?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Husky's mates again this year

 

 

 

Best hotdogs in town - Hot dog hut in front of town hall

we were there at that very time stanski judging by the time on the town hall clock. Shame we didn't see you

[Chesterfield]

It is a great site - very busy, and one year I think Id like to try and make it over midweek so I can take more time and not be as crowded. That would probably entail more of the alcoholic hot chocolates though

Lovely weekend and the Market was great.

 

The journey back wasn't quite as fun!

 

7 1/2 hours to do 100 miles and 3 hours sitting still!

 

Thanks to the members that kept me updated with the roads and stuff, ZMANALEX, Vik54 and Stanski were all very helpful!

 

 

 

I want a reindeer hat though!
