Bit bored tonight so got this off Mike to fill in (have chopped it down to 75 because the original was 200 entries which is a bit long in my opinion).
- Bought everyone in the pub a drink – no, although I think I’ve been there when someone has (can’t remember though)

- Had a snowball fight – of course, who hasn’t? Great fun they were too.
- Ridden a roller coaster – yes, lots of them

- Called or written to your MP – I tried to call him once before the top-up fees vote but he wasn’t in
- Picked up and moved to another city to just start over – no, don’t want to leave Manchester and it’s big enough that I could avoid people if I was in that situation anyway

Piza was closed from 1990-2001.
I went in 1998 🙁
Ah, I thought it may have opened again—didn’t they put some steel rods in to stablise it or something? I’ve always found it amusing how such an otherwise inane building is so famous because of an engineering bodge-up.
