I've taken a little risk of putting myself out there to make a short film about cooking one of the dinner's my Nan used to make for me. She died in 1998. If you like #food #nostalgia and #familyhistory, or just want to watch someone chopping carrots, the full film is on the link in the comments.

Manchester Italian Association’s Madonna del Rosario procession has been taking place each summer since 1890. Here’s the Madonna on her way back to Little Italy in Ancoats this afternoon. #MadonnadelRosario #Ancoats #LittleItaly #Manchester #Italy

The sun is out for today’s history walking tour. It’s a fresh new T-shirt kind of day. 😎

Tickets for this summer’s tour dates via www.manchesterhistory.uk

All set for the first day of my 2025 history walking tour season. Today’s tour is fully booked but do check out the ‘come on a tour’ link at www.manchesterhistory.uk if you want to come on a guided walk through the streets of Victorian Manchester this spring. 🎟️🚶🏻‍♂️

Spent a cold afternoon very foolishly trying to record an audio walking tour and had to give up halfway round and go home, but I will be back. Check out Manchester’s lovely Chetham’s Library though. The oldest public library in the English-speaking world. #Manchester #libraries #localhistory #tours
