Tonight, Thu 17 January, we organised a tour, “Spooky Manchester”, which started at the Victoria Station wallmap at just after 5.30pm.

There were about 25 people on the tour. Consequently I was most disconcerted to discover later that 9 or 10 people had contacted us to say they had turned up and waited till half past six but that there was no guide.

The only logical solution to this is that some people might have gone to the wrong place, which is most unfortunate and I am most sorry for any confusion.

We have been using the wallmap for 10 years but clearly might have to find somewhere else. In the meantime, a number of tours have already been arranged to start at the wallmap. Here is a picture of it.
