    It was probably the same tower ! A slightly better lunch time stroll than Trafford Park Industrial Estate.

    Have never been to watch the teletubbies play. I see the mighty crystal palace dished out a bitch-slap last night.

    Harry's Cafe de Wheels ! Also decent pies at King X Cakes and Pies.

    The Aussies think they are good at pies but not up to Lancashire standards I'm afraid.
