Hi Rebel, don't know Heaton Norris too well, other then the stretch of pubs between the Rudyard (or whatever it's called now) and the town centre.
Hi Becky, know Marple quite well. I like the Royal Scot in Marple Bridge, and the Midland is nice for a meal, if a bit pricey. Also eat in the Ring'o'Bells on the canal quite a lot. Will shortly be walking up round Hawk Green, and call in the Crown (another nice one for food) on the way back to watch the snooker. Hope this doesn't sound excessively pub-orientated, but walking does build up a thirst.
