They might want to give the Humber Bridge a swerve too. The Wolds would be nice though, and the North Yorks moors. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Train to St Helens and watch the champs Back to Manchester Fly home. I’m organising a two day tour for the Saints v TWP game if any Canadians are interested. £600 pp (excl flights) Day 1. Fly into Manchester, train straight to Stockport to check out the History Museum. Tram to Timperley to see the Frank Sidebottom statue, then on into town to marvel at the spice heads and have tea in Piccadilly Wetherspoons. Night out in Salford and stay at Premier Inn. Day 2. Train to Widnes to take in the fresh air and go wild in Widnes Shopping Centre’s flagship store (M&S). Then on to Liverpool for bus tour around Kirkdale and Bootle. Train to St Helens to see the Champs, back to Manchester for last flight home. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
