The cheapest direct flights I could find for Manchester - Newquay return were flying with Loganair. Out Saturday and return Sunday. Netflights have tickets available at £ 322/person return. Unfortunately the flight doesn't arrive at Newquay until 2-55pm. The option to go via Dublin, using Aer Lingus/Ryanair was £ 223/person. Arrival at Newquay is 12-40. Return flight departs Newquay on Sunday at 16-45 arriving Manchester 20-25.
Ronnie, his son Ian (I think) and Lennie Lawrence were present in the visiting director's box for the final game of last season against their present club, Hartlepool. We had a brief chat and he had no problem recalling the FA Cup tie at Old Trafford. The one were Bryan Robson was recovering from injury and for some strange reason the undersoil heating system failed in one half of the pitch twice causing two postponements. Eventually I think that the game was played on a Thursday night and without Robson. The declared crowd of 28000 was later amended to 40223 when they discovered some more turnstiles. Dale left fullback Dave Grant nearly being decapitated being on the end of a drop kick from Mark Hughes. And I completely forgotten that Gordon Strachan played for Utd that evening.
Perhaps better remembered by those of you with grey hair and those like me with no hair. Some great jazz numbers when accompanied by her late husband Johnny Dankworth.
