We had an early start for this trip with a 6.35 am flight from Belfast City Airport this time we were on our jollies to Manchester.  We were met at Manchester airport by our coach which took us to the Crowne Plaza Manchester City Centre Hotel.  The hotel was in an excellent location, after dropping our luggage in the reception store room everyone had free to go for breakfast and check out the shops.

That evening a group of us met up at the bowling alley for a game of bowls and a few beverages the craic was amazing with so many laughs and a lot of competition as I’m sure you can tell from photos who they were 😉😉.
Later that night most of us met up in the bar where we had more entertainment by Joe and Billy telling us some crazy funny stories they got up to when they were in the Prison service, they had everyone doubled in two and sore sides laughing.  Lucky, they got retired lol 😊😊😊

Next morning, we were served a beautiful buffet breakfast before boarding our coach for Chester town centre and Cheshire Oaks Shopping Outlet. Cheshire Oaks was enjoyed by everyone as they came back laden with bags and lighter purses.

Thursday morning, we woke to lovely sunshine and blue skies and after another lovely breakfast clients had free time to explore Manchester before our coach collected us at lunchtime and took us from our hotel back to the airport for our homeward bound flight for Belfast,

This was an amazing trip with amazing people, and thanks to Michelle and the board of Directors of the PST for organizing it.

See you all soon …….
