Altrincham

Braved the trains to go to Altrincham to see Archie's work in the Air Gallery. Only two carriages going but thankfully not as busy as last week. Some idiots still not wearing masks but kept a safe distance. Very warm. A short walk from station following the train lines. No surprise the Air Gallery is run by an ex-Interactive Arts student that Hazel vaguely remembers - also ex- MMU Fine Art also involved. Nice exhibition in a refurbished industrial unit. Building also housing 25 small studio units and a cafe. Walked to the centre of town afterwards - very busy - lots of out door eating places - felt very much like Brighton. Altrincham has certaily changed from the drab place it was several years ago. Went in a few charity shops but didnt find anything. Hazel said all the clothes were much more expensive compared to Northwich.
