The museum and the Art gallery are actually really good arent they. I went with my dad a few weeks back and thought it would be highly boring but i really enjoyed myself. Do they still have the cows dotted around the place. I couldnt believe that i had never been before as you just never bother going in to places like that when you live here.
No, they don't. That was just for a summer a few years ago... I think it was in 2003. One of my mates had never been to either before and I was so surprised! I find that you never go to what's nearby so this summer, my mum is taking us around all the local museuems... it'll be something to do!
I never really did understand why the cows were there. Glad there gone, they were quite scary. hehe. I havent been to that Staircase place yet in Stockport is it the new museum on local history and ive never been to the hat museum so that could be a day out.
The cows were there as part of a world wide thing, and the cows were decorated by manchester people then sold at an auction for chairty.
For us, it will be:
Imperial war mueseum north
Hat Mueseum
Staircase thing
and anywhere else that is free!
We wanted to go to Sheffield but it's £25 on the train, and it cost less to go to nottingham that time! so that's a no go!
The war museum i have actually been to and it is really interesting if your into History or just the war in general. THeres loads of artifacts and things.Quote:

well what a hecktec couple of days i have had woth packing to go on hoilday and i went to live in the city yesterday
The war museum is something to do and I like the Quays area!
I want to go to Birmingham, I love it there. And are traffic surveys compulsory because I don't wanna spend my summer next year doing those!!
no the traffic surveys are not compulsary you choose a hypothesis to work on and mines all about a commuter settlement. I like Salford Quays to, the only disadvantage is its like home to Manchester united football ground. Eugh. I have been to the lowry to see a few times and i have plated in concert a few times. Usually you can pick up some bargains there. As for birmingham i can think of better things to do as my family always take the rise out of my accent.
I don't mind about Utd, it's a nice place and that's what matters!! I love birmingham, but I don't have anyone to pick up on any bit of accent!Quote:
