Mancs and Scousers? It can't have ended well...

5 hour de-brief in Sheffield after a standing-only train journey over (and through, Wil) the Pennines.
Missed train home due to useless Sheffield trams, but blagged next one with understanding...

You can still ask at departure or arrival station Gann - just say you forgot to get your plusbus, and they should sell you one. Even so, you'll probably only pay one bus (downhill on SH route ;o) )...

I am pleased to report that the apparent demise of the Crown was, hopefully, just a blip. Four different beers all thoroughly pulled through and served in fine fettle yesterday, ~12:15.
I do wish...

Just to advise that the route between the two most distant pubs, Hope & Fairway is downhill to Hope, uphill the other way, so a 191/192 from Hope to Fairway, then a walk down from there to Olde Vic...

Despite BF's unfortunate experience, I would be mortified if anyone visited Stockport and did not include the Crown on their route.
That said, I can hopefully provide an update in a couple of...

I had a Travelodge discount code ('AUTUMNSTAYS') which was supposed to expire last week, but tried it and it worked. Had intended to look at the price for the one at Parrs Wood, but the one nr Heaton...

Done it many times, summer and winter, and both versions of the view are outstanding.
Don't recall tunnels, but if that's what you want to remember from such a journey Will, so be it!

Was wanting to attend, (i was born here even if I didn't discover its beery attractions until relatively late on), but wasn't sure with a similar tour already planned this month.
However, megatrain...

I'm visiting 21Oct and yes, will be including the Railway (beyond Arden) and the Hope and Vic. wouldn't do Bakers Vault or Boars Head, traditionalists may like the Pineapple, but a better Robbie's...

Blimey, what time will folk be heading off..?

I noticed the Fairway sounds good, new tick for me, and definitely Ye Olde Vic, very much near the station. And the Armoury is a decent local but you may be tired of Robbies by then...

I suppose it's relative to the company one is in, in this case all I can say is 'eek eek....'

What can I say? Some of us have had to re-join the working classes, maybe my resistance levels have lowered. Certainly the recovery slope is very steep these days - I think I'll need Monday off.
So...

Yikes!! Here was me, scared stiff by this weekend's double header in Nottingham-Beeston, and Father J is on a monster TREBLE!

Would be a quick re-visit for me - currently scheduled for a Stockport crawl 21Oct, £11ew I think.
I note I need to add the Fairway to my usuals up there.
