Manchester's Jewish Community
« on: 19:50:06, 23/10/06 »
The Manchester Jewish Community currently numbers about 35,000 - the second largest community in the United Kingdom. Jews first settled in Manchester in the 1780s. A Jewish cemetery was acquired in 1794, almost certainly by Jews moving from neighbouring Liverpool.

The 1794 date is near enough, but Jews leaving Liverpool for Manchester? Don’t thhink so.

Contact T. Blair, computer expert and specialist at handling machinery and people who say "NO" (eg certain Ulster politicians). You may expect your computer to go to St Andrews for a few days so the aforementioned T. Blair can give it a severe ticking off. Your computer isn't wearing a cross or a veil is it ... that could mean read trouble. If you don't fancy T. Blair's method of handling things give the ruddy thing a kick or a hard but firm slap with the hand .. that ususally works. You need to show it who's the boss :D
