Manchester Stuff

I've realised I've not been giving you lot the full benefit of my wisdom and experience, particulrly in relation to this city we all find ourselves in called Manchester. I've been going out and about in town and south Mancland for about 15 years now and worked in town for 8 years so reckon i know it pretty well.

When i were a young'un you had to find out where was good to go, and what was going on in town by trial and error, or by word of mouth, but these days there is loads of good stuff online to make it nice and easy.

This is a good place to start to find out a bit more about what's goin on. It's an online magazine called Manchester Confidential. There's bar, resaurant and club reviews as well as loads of offers and deals you can save some pennies and have a good time at the same time.

www.manchesterconfidential.co.uk

It used to be all free until January this year but some of the content you have to pay for now.

They also run some tours that look pretty good. Here's s link -

Here's a couple of other sites that are pretty good about stuff that's going on in The People's Republic of Mancunia, as it's sometimes called.

One other thing.... A mate of mine Ben runs Manchester's newest live music venue Sound Control. It's got some top nights on, has had some good press and is well worth checking out. Here's the website -

That's all for now folks, but anything else i think of i will let you know.
