Origins of 'rainy Manchester' myth revealed: 1920's map may have sparked false wet weather worries

Geographer Dr Martin Dodge believes the perception goes against weather statistics

Just done a bit of research into annual rainfall , Manchester is not in the top 20 but Stockport is ? Go figure ?? About as wierd as dual zone aircon in a car

But much better to be left dangling than having your fall arrested by the floor !!!

The floor gets a lot of bad press but if it wasn't there to do its job, you'd fall forever.

Reminds me of seeing the 'nuclear free zone' sign near McVities travelling from Stockport.

I always felt remarkably safe knowing that an atomic bomb wouldn't have any effect on me when I reached Levenshulme.

Just something I noticed ( I think) with the first one , there doesn’t seem any provision to fix a light ???

Are there lights on the the South Stand equivalents?

Are we destined never to see these working again....!!!???

Is it really falling, if there is no destination?

Very prophetic !!

Falling from a great height is harmless. Landing not so. The ground is the problem

I can vouch for that. I fell through the garage roof, roughly 8' to 9', sideways. Didn't do my head much good but the more concerning part is when I got into my car to fetch a tarpaulin. Popped it into first gear, two of my ribs popped out of their sockets. Had to push them back every time I changed gear or turned a corner. Managed to get to A&E where they lost me in a cubicle for a hour and half. Eventually checked me for concussion and when I asked about my ribs, they said, "What about them"?.Then sent me home.

This is the guy who said there’s a new arena around here, looking around and focusing on the Veldrome he said that must be it, he seemed to miss the big black box! “It’s behind you”

In this one he spots the CooP Arena and says that wasn’t here last June he also thinks it 6 months from last June to today
Doesn’t like the fact the stand isn’t going a round the corners However he’s generally impressed

So, just another clueless blogger or whatever he calls himself cashing in? It's become a very strange world.

Ouch!

Ouch? Will no one think of the poor garage roof?
