Christmas Eve This will be the 4th year that me and my crazy friend Chi will have spent Christmas Eve together. Every year, we go into town expecting bars to be open and always shocked to discover everywhere closed. Last night, like every other year, we ended up in our local pub. We made a pact that next year we are going to set up our own soup kitchen in Manchester. Weather permitting. Below: Me and Chi in the Greyhound Pub in Flixton.
