webber Posted November 26, 2007 Report Share Posted November 26, 2007 Yesterday I took my little grand daughter to the Christmas market in Manchester city centre, we also went on the large observation wheel, which we both enjoyed. Whilst on the ride there is an interesting commentary, which I struggled to listen to as Caitlan was so noisy. At noon today my daughter called into our office after Caitlan had been to school. She went straight to the two office assistants and asked them to guess where she had been yesterday. They amused her for a minute or so, then she spouted out, well I've been on a giant ferrets wheel, so there. She obviously was listening to the commentary, but did not understand the word Ferris, and thought that they had said ferret. She makes me laugh, she is 4 on Christmas eve. webber Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gordon R Posted November 26, 2007 Report Share Posted November 26, 2007 I visited the Manchester markets - five of them allegedly - at 7.00pm. The one in the square outside the Town Hall - open. The rest - perhaps they closed early. A bit of a letdown. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
webber Posted November 26, 2007 Author Report Share Posted November 26, 2007 Gordon I'm not sure what the official opening times are. We arrived around 11am and left around 4:30, we really did enjoy the day and discussed a return visit on the way home. webber Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gordon R Posted November 26, 2007 Report Share Posted November 26, 2007 Supposed to be until late evening. We will return for another visit. My wife and myself enjoyed the main market. Nice atmosphere. Parking is a bind though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
