Chinese New Year

Happy New Year!
2013 is the Chinese year of the snake.

We went along to the celebrations in Manchester, which, in all honesty, we pretty soggy and altogether British! Having to fight through the crowds to take a photo or 2, and coming up against fans making their way to Old Traffic... It was quite an ordeal. Maybe next year we will go to Chinatown instead....

The Dragon was great though, and all credit to the "puppeteers" for braving a rainy English day in February!
