There is, or was
a pretty decent cookshop selling that type of stuff in the new arndale market. Failing that, hobbycraft does all that sort of stuff now.

yeah that's the one!
It's in the market surrounded by all the chavvy knock-off stores and the Chinese acrylic nail salons.

Heh, sounds about right
there are some interesting shops and cafe type places in there but most of it is the same old tat as the old market, just in shiny new surroundings. Shame. It's also a shame that there isn't a Lakeland or Hobbycraft in Manchester, you'd think with the trafford centre and everything there would be...

I know, I so badly want a Hobbycraft
but the nearest is sodding Warrington.
