Geoff, I was attempting to be light hearted about correcting people who mistakenly call Angel Meadow "Angles Meadow", of course I know that Deansgate was not formerly Danesgate but thought I`d add a touch of idiocy.I don`t know where you live but perhaps you have heard something about the Manchester congestion charge and how the proposal got a resounding "no" from commuters especially who could end up paying £50+ per week to travel to work in inner city M/C.
Anyway Marks and Spencer were not where they are now but higher up Market Street,there were two former sites ;the first Penny Bazaar and then the store on the corner of Market St.and High St., part of Ryland`s building. I am very very old you see and remember lots of things but not where I have put my glasses or what I went upstairs for-I`ll have to get a faster stairlift -one that gets me to the top before I have forgotten what I was going up for!Cheerio and Happy Christmas. Viktoria.
