It's krokusvakantie* time. And that means cheap trip to industrial British city. Sorry, a chance to show the kids some more of the wonderful nation of my birth.

As the flights to Manchester were cheapest, we'll be in there 27th February to 1st March.

I know there are a few of a Northwestern persuasion who read this blog. This is where I saw off the tops of your skulls and spoon out the contents. (That is what picking someone's brain means, isn't it? That's the image that always pops into my mind.)

Being too lazy to do any research of my own, I'm going to throw out a few questions. Like frisbees, floating and curving majestically. Here goes:


Which pubs would you recommend?. Preferably ones with wifi and a tolerant attitude to kids.
Which curry houses would you recommend? Preferably fairly central.
Any local beers to particularly look out for?
Who fancies a pint? I'm sure I can escape the rest for a few fleeting flashes of fun.

Any other suggestions welcomed.
