Motorcycle life – motorbike travel and pictures
We went into Manchester today and took Andy to the National Football Museum – it’s very decent and a nice enough way to pass and hour or two. We followed that up with a coffee in Starbucks and then fish and chips on the way home.
We had a wander to Stockport today and enjoyed the stroll in the sunshine before having a decent cup of coffee and a sit down on a very comfy sofa

You will have seen in my earlier post (14 Feb) that we drew lots for who was providing the items to make up our meal yesterday (Valentines day). The attached pictures show the outcome.
