Let’s all take a moment to appreciate the Manchester Art Gallery.  I saw this building a few years ago when I was in Manchester in 2010, now I’m back and actually went inside.  To my surprise they had an awesome fashion/ dress exhibition from the old cotton mills.  The dresses were super stunning and a must see for any fashion fanatic!  The entrance to the gallery was pretty damn cool as well, looking at the ‘lost gardens of Piccadilly’.  My fave exhibit was the two nifty deck chairs and the array of plants were quite nice, as Manchester is quite built up it’s nice to see a bit of greenery!  Very summery indeed.  Now for those interested in a bit of quirky interior design, there was a real treat of level 2.  Some very interesting lounge suites, chairs, rugs and tables.  I’m not sure if this was a permanent fixture…
