November 15, 201213 yr I found the place a bit trying. Did you not rally around a bit once you got there?
November 15, 201213 yr Manc ones will be open tomorrow night unofficially. MMW All stock for majority of stalls in place and the beer and pig stalls are ready to rock.
November 15, 201213 yr Was in manc earlier this week working on tall hall extension, saw them putting market up, back there next week, bratwurst for lunch methinks
November 15, 201213 yr Anyone doing anything decent this year ? I'm off to Bruges for theirs in 2 weeks,can't bastard wait Went to Bruges a couple of years ago. Very disappointed. Seemed like the sort an average town in this country would come up with
November 15, 201213 yr All Christmas markets I've been too have been utter dog shit they should be banned! Bah humbug!
November 15, 201213 yr Went to Bruges a couple of years ago. Very disappointed. Seemed like the sort an average town in this country would come up with Funny as its one of the best places I've ever been. Good to know we are all different. For the record, doing Munich in Dec and the Manchester ones (intermittently during Nov/Dec).
November 15, 201213 yr I do get awfully Christmassy at them. I'll just be doing the Manchester one but not till December. It's not right in November.

November 15, 201213 yr By Christmassy, do you mean pissed? Ha ha! That too. I think I was a bit wankered on one visit last year. No harm done
November 16, 201213 yr For the record, doing Munich in Dec I've done Munich a couple of times, it's very good indeed
November 16, 201213 yr off to Manchester a week Saturday, which just happens to be the day after I get paid from Part time work... I think Mrs Swanny has planned that...
November 16, 201213 yr Not done a full session since I stopped working in Manc but usually cal in whilst passing.
November 16, 201213 yr Author Funny as its one of the best places I've ever been. Good to know we are all different.

November 16, 201213 yr Funny as its one of the best places I've ever been. Good to know we are all different. For the record, doing Munich in Dec and the Manchester ones (intermittently during Nov/Dec). I meant it as the christmas market was disappointing. As for Bruges as a place, been a few times and love the place. Each time I've been its been bloody freezing though going in December and March might have had something to do with it.
November 16, 201213 yr I've done Munich a couple of times, it's very good indeed Dirty Munich Bastard
November 16, 201213 yr the manc ones can fuck off these days they used to be good for browsing now you just walk round with about 1cm space around you, shuffling about because they're so fooking busy, and the if you do get a pint, it's about £5 with a £3 deposit balls to that though I will be going to get my annual £10 big bag of sausage, mid morning probably, when it's quiet

A place where my festive spirit is often replaced by frustration and anger!
November 16, 201213 yr I was just about to say the Christmas Market Shuffle is back! A place where my festive spirit is often replaced by frustration and anger! Friday night I find is the worstest & there's some utter nobbers, lads who think they're city slickers. Nobs! We fired off Albert Square & ended up at Spinningfields on one of the trips last year. I enjoyed it better there.
