i've got a copy of the map, but i couldn't tell you right now where it is in my life. if i could find it (doubtful now) i'd do a scan of it. but yeah, urbis is your best bet.

Bump... Loving the likes of Marble and Hilary Step but looking for nice pub (real ale style) with a Pool Table, and decent juke box. Chorlton area if poss. Any offers?
-

Best juke box is Oddest on Wilbraham, as it's regularly refreshed by King Bee Records peeps (just over the road) - lots of guest ales but sadly no pool table there.
Which, for no obvious reason, reminds me - has anyone been to Dr Pong's in Berlin? I think Chorlton/Fallowfield could be ripe for a similar venture...

The Bowling Green off Chorlton Green has a pool table and they do a great sunday roast.

Nice one, thanks. Will swing by both sometime. Cheers.

Anyone heard any news on the MCR Invaders being taken down? Not been around them all but those I know there whereabouts of are vanishing leaving only the tile paste.
Sad days.

Still one at the end of Chorlton St nr junction with Portland. Best condition one I've seen is in Levvy as you head up towards the land of biscuit smells.
Maybe time for a bit of stencil action on the loop?

Does anybody know a place that sells green coffee beans in Manchester?
-
• #21
Maybe one of the local roasters could hook you up?
-
• #22
Yeh that's looking like the only possibility for now as I can't find any shops that stock them.
-
• #23
Ancoats Coffee seem like decent people, you could try asking them?
-
• #24
Venus Supermarket has small bags of green beans, I bought a bag but never got round to roasting them, probs past best now.

• #25
But yeah +1 what they all said about local roasterers
Question from a noob - how many Space Invader (edit not Pacman Ghosts) Mosaics in the Northern Quarter / wider city?
Is there a prize if you spot them all? I'm on a measley 2 so far.
