My first manchester tour since my return to escorting... Wanted to beat the traffic so left from London around 6.45am. Made
it to Manchester in 3hrs but once i got there, took me half an hour to
find the hotel. Yes, I have been to this hotel several times over the
years yet its still hit and miss for me... why do they keep changing
things huh? Its 'one way' this and no entry that... abit like me
(ahem). I only made it to the hotel cos my lunch date guided me on the
fone for about half an hour... he had to come and get me in the end cos
i was still driving in circles.
Why dont i get a satnav? Well i had
planned to but friends tell me of 'the time i was instructed to take a
right but there was no right turn (except a field)... and of course
there was that incident covered by the bbc about the man who got arrested for wreckless
driving for following his satnav straight into a fence by a cliff! So, finally get to the hotel and my lunch date watches me unpack... after abit
of 'fun' we went off for our lunch. What a sunny day it was in
Manchester (thats a first) The rest of the day flew by...
