Birthday plans

In the past I have made a point of travelling to the place where most of my friends live for my birthday. Recently they have been doing the deeply problematic thing of spreading out (Tut tut).

So, I am considering a day trip to Manc on the 28th Feb as this is within reasonable traveling distance of a decent number of people I like. I'll only be doing this however, if there are people to hang out with. So, anyone interested?

Plans would include: maybe some shopping, as a trip to Afflecks always cheers me; but mostly a pub and some food/drink.
