Wht's up with blogger today? I have had to post this entry three times now! anyhow I am off to Manchester today
(yes Manchester, where the locals pronounce the City's name as Man-chest- O (O as the O in Orange)
Anyway, I am having an overnight visit with friend Nigel, which doesn't mean that the pair of us will be donning our sequinned hot pants to swish our way down canal street like a pair of over-the-hill queens......oh no........ we are off to do "coffee", an arthouse movie at the Cornerhouse Cinema and a visit to Tatton Hall tomorrow!
And I shall back to Wales tomorrow afternoon...just in time to assess just how any more apericubes William has passed in a 24 hour period......
Apericubes? Ooh, I had to google that one. You're so cutting-edge, sweetie....
ReplyDeleteHave fun in Personchester.

ReplyDeleteHave fun. We will be here when you get back.
ReplyDeleteCoffee and a movie? You're so wild!
ReplyDeletem.
Have fun ! Wasn't your last visit party & booze filled? lol
ReplyDeleteThat's pretty much how I celebrate pride as well
ReplyDeleteEnjoy...hopefully William will have piled them all up at the door for you...
ReplyDeleteNow, see, my mom pronounces it "ah-runge" but I pronounce it "Ornj." So I still don't know how to say Manchester.
ReplyDeleteDoes this mean Chris is in charge of the zoo for a day? I do wish he'd write a post or two; I'm dying to hear things from his side. :)
24 hour period? I thought William was male!
ReplyDeleteAhhh, Manchester! The first city I saw after landing at Heathrow from New York in 1974!! And coffee, yes, coffee - I'm an American who does NOT like coffee. I drink tea (from the fridge, horrors!) Anyway, the lovely sister of the friend I was traveling with had bought instant coffee just for me, not knowing how strange I was. I felt so bad when I declined it that I thought I should drink it anyway so as not to hurt her feelings!!!
ReplyDeleteNancy in Iowa
Really no sequinned hot pants?
ReplyDeleteWe live in Chelsea, NY where such garb is de rigeur for evening outings......
For a change Blogger played nice with me today. Shhhh....
ReplyDeleteHave a hell of a time! You could use it!
I did laugh at your apericubes !!
ReplyDeleteHave a lovely time in Manchcheso -
you need a break after that village show.
The 'o' in orange is pronounced differently here than there! Guess 'as in Rome do as.....'
ReplyDeleteHave fun John!
How very grown up your outing sounds..enjoy!
ReplyDeleteI'm having major Blog problems. Yesterday, my entire newly written post disappeared. I'm having to go to Google Chrome to see some blogs & Internet explorer for others !
ReplyDeleteHave fun...we are off to see Cirque du Ciel !
Have fun!
ReplyDeleteNow, when you say the "O" is pronounced, I'm not sure I know what that means. How exactly does someone from Wales pronounce "orange." Americans have a quite a few drastic variations.
ReplyDeleteAnd admit it. You're wearing those sequined hot pants right now.
Saw a tele show the other day with Sean Bean tottering around Manchester in drag.
ReplyDeleteSlightly worried that I though he looked ok...
WTF are apericubes?
