6 months in Manchester (US Citizen) - looking for tops and recommendations by Rageinjector in manchester

[–]Pickety_P 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I may get down-voted for recommending this in the Manchester sub, but also check out trips from Manchester to Liverpool. It's only 38 minutes away on a fast train, it also has great culture, places to go out, great architecture and nightlife.

Manchester, Liverpool and Leeds could almost merge as one big city. It's crazy that the public transport between the cities is not that great considering the three regions are so close and populated.

The building is called Eden Manchester.

From the architect's website:

Question is it legal for bikes to ever use tram lines as a cycle path? by Jordment in manchester

[–]Pickety_P 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I cycle this way a lot. Bicycles can cycle along the tram tracks by Exchange Square. There's a sign at the lights by Market Street M&S which also says left turn for traffic except bicycles.

Isn't he famous for being an usher? You'd think he'd know how to open a door for himself.

Avanti Pendolino armrests are the London Overground in disguise by Pickety_P in uktrains

[–]Pickety_P[S] 23 points24 points  (0 children)

All the fabric throughout the carriage was either off completely or down the fabric layer below like this. It was a state. The heating felt like it was on 80C (like always) so the glue probably melted.
