On Saturday while just a few minutes away a mob engaged in disgusting and embarrassing behaviour, it was a welcome reminder to see scenes like these in the Northern Quarter. People sharing music with strangers just because. Love always does seem to win over hate in the end ❤️

Have you ever noticed the unique blue & white street name signs in the Northern Quarter?
They were installed by Tim Rushton & Liam Curtin in the late 1990's.
See their new design on Band on the Wall, Oak Street.
