Up to Manchester this weekend, again proving that it is perfectly possible to have a weekend break there, in June not worry at all about sun burn if the sun screen has been left at home. This weekend was Sparkle so we were to be found enjoying a warm coffee on a chilly morning that Saturday on Canal Street people watching.
