Talk Of The Town
I loved the show here and everyone from the bar staff, waiters and the performers worked really, really hard all night to cater and entertain all the lovely people. The show was fantastic and on the night I went, it was the 26th birthday of the youngest performer who was from Wythenshawe, near local to me. I also loved that the performers stayed after the show to bid everyone farewell. Great work and fantastic show...you were all lovely xxx
Torr Vale Mill
A nice mill that's currently and constantly been upgraded and developed. It has a bar and small concert venue. You can sit outside enjoying a beer whilst overlooking the waterfall. It may not be Niagara Falls but it's still nice. Nice new tar Mac road and car park now as well.
River Island
The only clothes shop left in Stockport. At least it's a decent one.
I went in Thursday 28th March 24, to buy some jeans. I wrestled with the top blouses as the jeans I was looking for were women's bell bottom flares which were under the blouses. Mens fashion is generally boring and I've been searching for this type of jean for ages. I must have tried five pairs. The changing rooms upstairs left a bit to be desired as the only light that was working, was in a cubicle that had a busy door. Which meant I had to nip out every time I tried something on. ( The photo is me tacking a picture in the cubicle with the bust door and only working light)
The floor was also dusty and I had to juggle sticking clothes in places off the ground.
In the end I got a pair I liked, and the till person was nice and efficient. ( Upstairs) . The jeans were the normal good quality you'd expect from River Island.
To get the fifth star, sort the changing rooms out for next time I come. Cheers dears x

Waterstones
Who doesn't love a bookshop eh. It's nice to still see Waterstones in our towns, especially as Amazon is intent on holding us all to ransom once the shops have gone. Use it or lose it. 😁
The New Union
Gosh this is still going.. wow! I was coming here in the early 90s.
I walked in and nothing has changed apart from the introduction of plastic over glasses. Though I could understand this as a night here in the day usually got quite messy and maybe it still does. I mean do people still dance and have fun... apparently they do because on the day I was here there was a Sparkle event and indeed there was dancing.
I did throw in a few moves for old times sake ( I ached on Sunday).
I got talking to quite a few nice couples as well, very friendly. I've been away from the scene for over 20 years but because of circumstances, it looks like I may be in the village a little more often.
I would visit again...just to dance, drink and watch the acts if nothing else. 👍
