Visiting England (Stoke on Trent [Alton Towers]) - Fleckens - Oct 15, 2015
So guuuuuyyys
I'm going on a 6 day vacation with my girlfriend, Amsterdam -> England, Stoke on Trent.
She wants to visit Alton Towers again, so that's what we're going to do. We'll probably go to manchester one day.
Does anybody have any tips what to do or what to visit (anything!)
Let me know

England isn't all that great tbh aha. I am near Manchester so if you stop there this a place called Afflecks Palace which is this giant building with loads of other shops in that sells everything from band memorabilia to retro video games, imported sweets, jewellery. Its pretty good

I'd like to have some sweets 😉
I'll write it down on my to visit list. Have you ever visited Alton Towers?

I've been to Alton Towers and live only about 1-2 hours away over near Liverpool. Have fun. :)

I have been twice. I am not really a massive roller coaster person but there is still plenty of stuff to do. There is an aquarium and the giant castle thingy has ghost tours sometimes along with this cool ride called Hex

Still doubting to visit Liverpool or Manchester. What should I choose and why?

Alton Towers is fun, but be careful, some places in Manchester and Liverpool are dodgey af.

How humiliating, my home town.

Stoke on Trent is a shit hole, try not to get mugged by roadmen.

Alton towers is amazing can't go wrong stuff for roller coaster nuts but good for not the most ride orientated people.
Manchester is a nice place in the city centre, but if you want a huge shopping centre with everything in Bowling, Cinema, Crazy Golf, More shops that I could name. The Trafford centre is a good bet just outside of Manchester. Enjoy your visit man.

AVOID AT ALL COSTS! It's likely you will see some at Alton Towers, especially if you go on a weekend.i'll avoid those gypsticks let them move their big fat gypsy wedding somewhere else
