Were back.

Well all i all the trip went well, we arrived in Manchester at the Hilton about 4 pm on thursday after stopping off at the Leeds Ikea for a spot of lunch and unplanned, shopping. Buying a pink laptop case and a yellow and red spotty camel.

Once at the hotel we had a quick freshen up before catching the tram to the city centre. We then stumbled our way in a very touristy manner to the Northen quarter on a hunt for TV21, which we found was very cool, while there we ate very unhealthy but tasty burger and curly fries. We then Located and drank at Odd bar and Walrus, Lovely strawberry beer, (If only I could remember what it was called) and awsome cocktails with names such as Ice pop, pineapple unside down cake and um bongo. After all this excitement we returned to the hotel, Via an arcade for a sneaky go on the dance machine (me not Pete) for more drinks and sleep.

In the morning we ate Krispy Kreme for breakfast.

Before hitting the shops.
Beginning in the Northen quarter we went to Magma, where we returned later to purchase a crazy craft book, a cool logo book for Pete a fluffy pencil and a Tim Burton book. Thunderegg where I got two more vinyls for my collection and a sad banana key chain designed by my papercrane.

Then off to Afflecks Palace where I found my cool pink tutu a grey and purple square scarf and a pink leather cuff, also bought some really cute pink roller skate earrings.

Then a quick lunch at Costa coffee before hitting the high street, managed to get my jeans, well black ones anyway, from primark plus two t shirts, but had to order my boots when I returned home online, oh well they will be here soon. Also decided to leave my wedding dress shopping till closer the time.

Then home time. :-(
shopping over, well thats what I thought untill pete had the idea to stop at TGI Fridays for tea (mmm jack daniels salmon and cheesy mash, i will say no more) which just happened to be next to a huge Borders and paperchase, so nearly two hours later we come out with three packed carrier bags of books.!! So after this and feeling all shopped out we returned home.
