Earlier this week, I was strolling through Piccadilly Gardens, at roughly 5:15pm, with Manchester Evening News photographer Sean Hansford.
"Manchester at this time of day is like Greece in September," he said, admiring the newly-laid turf and array of colours in clouds painted by the setting sun. "Sean," I replied, "what on Earth do you mean?"
"It's tired, but it's just got so much more to give," he said back, expecting my follow-up. And the more I think about it, Sean's dead right.
