Christmas In Manchester
Just a few piccies and a shitty video from my camera phone of the Christmas lights switch on in Albert Square. Lovely fireworks with music from ABBA (well Mamma Mia are touring here at the mo') and a few celebs to warm up the crowd.
Currently residing in New Zealand, Wellington the capital to be precise. Wellington is the windy city, it likes to blow gales one minute, and then turn into a glorious sunny blue skied day. It also has very steep hills, possums and reggae music. Doing my PhD here. Its a great experience being immersed in a culture, and although English speaking, still feels very foreign. Enjoying the outdoor lifestyle and hoping to get fit, still retain my Mancunian style. Its not London fashion here, but theres still a place to set some trends...anyone interested in opening a shoe shop? Cafe culture here is great, one thing the kiwis are good at is making coffee (and cakes). One thing I miss? Rusholme. Someone find me a good curry here and I'll be a happy bunny.

Looks ace that place, although I'd hate to see that guy get it wrong with his tools ;)
