Christmas Markets

On Saturday afternoon my friends and I had a trip down to the German Markets in Manchester as we do every year for our little Christmas outing.  Needless to say by about 6pm i was a little worse for wear, hum hum full of Christmas cheer i'd say

You can just see my head popping out from behind the lovely Ang and her glittery festive berret..


The City of Manchester is full of life at any time of year but there is something a little more special when the German Christmas markets come to town.  The beautiful light displays in the trees then sprinkle light down to all tasting a little mulled wine or a hot chocolate Baileys.  Feeling a little peckish and to put a little bit of a lining on our stomachs we ventured over to the food stalls where we all indulged in either a paella or a Chirizo Hot Dog.


There is a huge amount of fabulous items/gifts you can purchase from handmade trinkets, jewellery, funky hats for the children or festive decorations for your home or garden.


Such good fun with a huge black and blue bruise on my leg to prove it, how on earth did i do that!?
