Thanks everyone :) I've had a really nice day, coffee, shopping and lunch with my Mum then met my friend and went to the Christmas Markets which opened today. Had some Gluhwein and a gorgeous Bratwurst.
Didn't dare go near Albert Square as too busy, especially the first day open, went down lower King Street and it was as great, got seats no problem and no queues for the food and drinks. I had a really lovely day, thank you xxx
