Capital Outing to Indy Man Beer Con 2016

[markc]

After sampling the beery delights of Manchester this last weekend, I floated the idea of a Capital Brewers trip to Manchester on our WhatsApp group, so, I'm throwing it up here too.

Indy Man Beer Con is on 6th-9th October 2016 in the Victoria Baths, Manchester. No line up yet. Friday and Saturday sessions are split into Morning and Evening and cost £13 per last year. Pop your name below if you are on for the trip. Giving plenty of notice as, we'd be flying over and staying the night. I suggest either both Saturday sessions or Saturday evening and Sunday afternoon, come back Sunday night. Tickets are not on sale until the start of June.

Chaps,

The flights on Ryanair are down to €33, so, grab them while you can. I don't see the point heading on the 6:30am flight, so, I've booked the next one at 10:35, we can head straight to the 1st session or drop bags at the hotel. Getting the 6pm flight back we can make most of the Sunday session too, or, just hit the bars.

I've booked:
DUB - MAN 8th Oct 16, 10:35 - 11:35
MAN - DUB 9th Oct 16, 18:10 - 19:10

In terms of accommodation, I cant find reasonable, suitable apartments (paying over the odds to share a double or, sleep on a sofa bed.) I could book twin rooms in the Park Inn or Holiday Inn Express, looks about €75 a head for that. When I've better idea of numbers I can do that. Paying a bit more gives you free cancellation until the day before, I dont want to get stung with that bill!! Ciaran mentioned a hostel. Anything I've looked at is bunk beds, cheap as chips, but, bunk beds, whats the views on that? Personally, I'd prefer a proper bed...

Get booking those flights!
