Manc Monday

This weekend, Afflecks held a charity event to show support for CALM and Thirty One Songs. The compilation album curated by Dave Haslam was released recently, it is a collection of tracks from Manchester artists including Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds, Mr Scruff, I Am Kloot, Everything Everything and Elbow. The event involved some awesome live acoustic sets and special guests including Simon Rimmer, Justin Moorhouse and Jennie McAlpine (Fizz from Corra)

Get Thirty One Songs from their website or their store on the 2nd floor in Afflecks. All profits go directly to CALM.

THIS WEEK IN TOWN
Be sure to take a visit to new specialist beer shop Beermoth on Tib St. Offering a wide range of ales, stouts and lagers, I have so far sampled the following
Current favourites are picks from Flying Dog. Not to judge a book by it's cover, but the label artwork is illustrated by Ralph Steadman so I was instantly drawn to them. Also, I am bobbins at reviewing beer. 
Open late until 9pm (so you can pop in for a casual browse after work)

Tonight Mr Frankie and I will be publicly embarrassing ourselves by choice, by failing at the Cornerhouse Monday Night Quiz. I say fail, every team gets a prize AND there's pizza, so how bad can it be? Famous last words.
