Many events of this...Well I hope you are wrong too. Many events of this nature have to take place outside the exact city centre and don't suffer from it. Of course we thought long and hard about it. We have had great support from staff and from suppliers, great support from most drinkers and most are prepared to suck it and see or so they tell us. The bus will get you there at little cost in under 10 mins from the centre. A lot of our customers come from many miles away. I doubt if another short hop will bother them. I am sorry your mates can't or won't make that effort and am sorry they will miss a great event. I'd ask you to ask them to give it a go. If they live in Greater Manchester, frankly there is no excuse not too.Tandlemanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06804499573827044693noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8629758183547510158.post-19175294640638498582010-01-09T11:23:42.241+00:002010-01-09T11:23:42.241+00:00I know the CIS Building isn't available this y...I know the CIS Building isn't available this year but I think choosing this venue may turn out to be a mistake.<br /><br />I won't be there myself for health-related reasons but speaking to several mates who are regular attenders none of them is going either. The main reason is the location. I know Google Maps says it's within a couple of miles of both mainline stations but I think the organisers have underestimated the psychological resistance of many drinkers to travel outside their city centre comfort zone for a pint. I hope I'm wrong for the continued existence of the event.Matthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09310220100267028274noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8629758183547510158.post-11764163831863050232010-01-04T17:23:48.649+00:002010-01-04T17:23:48.649+00:00Less than two from Piccadilly Station Cookie. 1.8 ...Less than two from Piccadilly Station Cookie. 1.8 in fact. 1.6 from Victoria with all the NQ pubs in between.
