Praise for Manchester transport

17/07/2008 by admin.

I sat in the sauna this morning listening in on a woman in the jacuzzi telling her friends what a wonderful experience she had visiting the Dental Hospital in Manchester.

“I got the train, which only took 20 minutes to Victoria. Then I jumped straight on a tram to Piccadilly. When I got there, I asked a bus driver how to get to the Dental Hospital. ‘Jump in,’ he said. ‘I’m going right past there’.

“When I had finished, there was a bus waiting outside so I hopped on and went and did some shopping. It was brilliant…just not worth taking the car.”

How wonderful, I thought, but there was more to come…

“Of course,” she said, “Now I’m 60, it didn’t cost me a penny!!!”
