A Public Appeal


Searching Manchester Airport in Google Maps I note my review of December 31st of last year has been left like a 'hanging chad' with nil further, and there appears to be no means of adding a rejoinder.

Accordingly ~ but don't all do it ~ could I ask one of you, whom I'll call the 'review monitor' to post the photo above along with the following text, with italics reverted to plain text?

(Should it be rejected by AI, simply replace the word 'gay' as it refers to the above artwork with the words 'straight heterosexual'.)

Then go your way, knowing you made an old man and Manchester Airports Group very happy.

And five stars please?

Notwithstanding my mixed review after traveling at the close of 2025, using T2 recently I was delighted with the experience; not only was a coffee and croissant available for £5.50 if you looked hard enough, I bought a paperback on imminent human extinction at a book store that admittedly wants to dissociate itself from its owner W.H.Smith… and who could blame them? My experience too at the hands of the security section was altogether improved, to the extent I'll bring the family and make a day of it. And joy, looking up on leaving the section and spotting elements of the 1960s chandeliers incorporated in a gay artwork which simply lifts the spirits!
