We've got a city cider project running here.
The idea is you donate your windfall/spare apples, and they return it in cider/apple juice. It's called Moss Cider, and is actually rather nice. Bit dry, but they're still in a learning curve.

that's so hip I'm amazed it isn't riding a fixie wearing a scarf in summer.

I think I'm starting to understand why everybody hates them so much.
I thought it was mostly dressing like Dr Who and having a Dozer-style attitude to music.

I borrowed my friend's flat in Canary Wharf for a week of the olympics
Both her and her bloke are cyclists. He's got a fixie with a Burls titanium frame. I was both impressed and deeply, deeply disgusted.

Since when do graphic designers live in Moss Side?
Has it been gentrified?

I like how they have tried to appeal to the local residents by adding an element of stealing into it.
