We'd like to set the record straight.

Contrary to popular belief it does not always rain in Manchester.  And when the heavens do open over this magnificent city, it takes more than a little wet weather to dampen our spirits (get it?).

If you haven't already guessed, PacaPod's home is in Manchester, and boy do we love it here.  No congestion charge, great football and Coronation Street - what more could you want from your home city?  We're also lucky enough to have the support of local businesses and press (Manchester Evening News was the first publication to feature PacaPod - click here for a piece of nostalgia!).

Earlier this summer we found two PacaPod bags beautifully featured in Cheshire Mums Magazine - a first class move by the stylish mag to leave it's readers spoiled for choice!
