    This time next week we'll all be dying from the worst hangover ever....... And according to that map you posted Simon my hotel is only 1/2 a mile from the fest! I wonder if hotels still do late bars for residents........

    So are we going for a "Ruby Murray", on Sunday, then?

    I think a curry might be a bit much for my stomac to deal with when I've got a hang over......... I'd prefer a chinise, but if I remember right theres allsorts at the trafford centre we can easily find something we like, good call Simon!

    I've heard he's pretty soft.
    I wonder what it would take to change that???

    Maybe he just needs a "Ruby Murray", after a hard night out

    I've heard he's pretty soft.

    I admit it, its true. But then I'm not the one driving hundreds of miles to go to a beer festival and then deciding not to drink because he needs to be mobile again by 3pm the next day..............

    Hi Gadget,

    Sorry I missed you Thursday - tried PM with phone number but not sure it worked. Anyway 4-1 was pretty good - just like the City today!

    Up in the toon next Saturday whilst you're getting drunk down south in rainy Manchester...
