    Default Manchester change

    The Ox in Manchester now has the longer name of the Oxnoble, apparently a type of potato.
    On leaving the bar, I felt a strong blow to the back of my head. Turning round, I discovered it was the pavement

    It was originally the Oxnoble way back in 1804 due to it being on Potato Wharf.

    It's only when the pretentious gits who took it over a few years ago and ruined the place forever that it became the Ox.
