Ooh, before I forget - on the offchance we can't get a babysitter, does the pub have a children's licence?

I'm not totally sure, I think it does. Or rather, I believe there's no such thing as a children's licence any more and it's at the discretion of the staff.

I can always give 'em a ring and find out I know up here most pubs do have a licence and kids can stay til 9pm.

It's a very studenty bar, so to me they all look like kids

Well, that's me booked for the Sat 18th also in the Ibis Charles Street (surprised any rooms left!).

And in addition I shall be dragging the delightfully minty Menthol Penguin (he isn't really, just to save your disappointment) - U7771494

See yous all there.

I can see the bar at the Ibis is going to love all these weirdy internet types

When you see the bars I've lined up, you won't need the hotel bar

I didn't realise Manchester had a Spearmint Rhino.

B

hell, it's Manchester, we'll all be shot the moment we get off the train anyway.

Ictoan, you're mixing Manchester up with Salford. But I can forgive that as the University of Salford is advertising itself as being in Manchester. They're actually two separate cities.

Mu, I didn't know we had a Spearmint Rhino, but there are at least two other strip joints in the city centre, and a rather large gay village

Only if they've moved Salford to south Manchester.

Pastey, you're a damned racist. Nobody's been shot this year.

9 days and counting...

9 days?

10th day isn't over yet, surely?

Oh, and I'm referring to Mr603's 'this year'...

The meet is 18th February, 5 and half weeks.

Ah, I was wondering

Vee in Sveedenn haff a different kalender fromm you Britts, don't you know?

At the moment, Manchester is dull, drizzly, damp and drowsy, may it get warmer
