This is a pic of the On Ice at Piccadilly thing that will be going on all over Xmas in Manchester Piccadilly (Gardens). Personally it looks too busy to me so I shan't be participating but I like the idea even with the orange skates.

The day after the Christmas party we all went to The Little Mill a nice pub in the middle of nowhere which seemed quit nice. Not the restaurant that I was expecting but a pretty huge plate of food. The Cumberland Sausage didn't appear in a ring you might expect but turned up as 5 whopping sausages. The only complaint I had was that there was too much and gravy would have helped.
Anyway back to the point this is parked out back. An old London bus style affair with a train carriage with I don't have a pix of. I must admit I did think of buying one when they were selling them off but the practicalities of 10mpg stopped me. Oh well.

Whilst at my yearly (own personal) Christmas Do at little Chef I found this poster in a frame. First can I just explain this is the second time I have been here in a row for an Xmas Do so it's not like I do this to let my hair down (I was joking). Either way, I was instructed to leave my Wife in bed and "Go away and get breakfast and leave me alone" not the official words but they shall do. Anyway I saw this poster that nearly made my eyes pop out and it caused me to re-evaluate my thoughts on sausage. Outdoor reared sausage? I never knew. OK I was never hoodwinked into the Haggis hunting fiasco they are not living animals I know that we all know that Haggis are plant based but sausages... Outdoor reared? I never knew, gambling about with their little sausage legs in the field without being trapped in a cage like a battery sausage. Hell has no fury like mine whilst I think about little sausages that don't see the light of day. FREE THE SAUSAGE.

The Manchester Markets have taken hold in Albert Square, St. Anne's Square and Lincoln Square which this is a picture of. Pride of place in Lincoln Square is a statue of Abraham Lincoln pictured here. I can't remember the reason for the statue mind you.
What you have here is a picture of the statue, a place to get Bratwurst and other lovely German sausages and to the left somewhere to get refreshment. Despite working on Peter Street the first time I got out to see the markets were yesterday for lunch with my wife (unfortunately I had to rush back for phone interviews) and today, a quick outing to get Christmas presents. It's not like there wasn't much to get I would have loved half the stuff there as a present I just suspect the people I have left to buy for would not be so appreciative. Ah well there's always Amazon.

Still in Manchester this is on the ceiling of the gallery in Manchester on Mosley Street. I don't think I was supposed to take pictures within the Gallery so I shall await a knock on the door from the Art Police. I can't remember the name of the room but it's a really tranquil room and perhaps that's the lighting and the seats around the outside that have speakers that play sort of ambient sound such as people talking and singing.
