Manchester

is beautiful.

Since I spend so much of my time writing about London, I wanted to return to the motherland for a moment, just to even things out.

Over that apparently religious holiday called Christmas I managed to spend two weeks back in the north, which is really the love of my life.

Here are a select few things about Manchester

1. We can make good Spanish food



See El Rincon, hidden away around the back of Deansgate, por ejemplo

2. We like the idea of being business-like and modern. Kind of like London, except obviously nobody would put it like that...

3. Architechts love this city
