Gerry & the Pacemakers

Always used to go Catholic’s on the Friday, Protestants on Monday and the Italian walks the following Sunday . Great traditions.

Used to Walk with St James Collyhurst one time carried the Mothers Union banner to town , everyone or so it seemed went to Lyons coffee house on the square before starting back , remember the crowd's waving their shakers and cheering all the Churches out of town , and all the band's leader's throwing the poles high in the air and some catching them behind their back. The noise the music, great day's , honored I was part of those memories.

I was on,y a kid but my parents always took me to the Friday whit walks, we lived in Stockport,, a memorable day out for a kid ..m

I walked with Parkfield Parish Church,then later with Townley Street Congregational Church,my wife also walked with Parkfield.One Sunday it was Prodestants then the next Sunday Catholics ( they always had a large Polish group).

Loved walking the Whit Walks with Ascension Church, Lr Broughton..... x

Always watched the Friday Whit walks which were the Catholic ones including the Polish and Italian communities

My Dad was blown to the ground 5 blocks away. He was working at John Rylands Library.

A very sad day but Manchester came back bigger and better than ever and in some ways a favour was done to get rid of that eyesore Arndale facade. Manchester is without doubt one of the best cities there is for culture, history, shopping, eating and drinking ❤ Manchester

Remember being in work that Saturday morning at the Post Office on Oldham Road. The shockwave shook the sorting frames and we were about half a mile away

GONW Veterans...remember this? 😔

Remember that day clearly.

My brother drove past that van just before

We get knocked down but we get up again. My wife was working in Lewis's that day, remember having to go and pick her up from Ardwick Green Park where they'd been evacuated to. I think more good things have happened to Manchester since this event, remember on the day more people were helping each other.

I remember it well. 😪

😡😡😡

That bomb and the Commonwealth Games reshaped Manchester

Dreadful!

Bastards!!!

Bastards!!!

Fucking cowards.
