I have never parked at MAN for that duration - I live in south Manchester where a taxi is around £20 each way. If I can park for less than £40 then I will do, otherwise its a Taxi job. For non-early morning departures or late evening arrivals I've been on the 43 bus for £2 each way.
We live 20 minutes north of the M66 and I’ve just been quoted £160 return for a taxi which seems a bit rich. I suppose I’ll just keep plugging away at the parking booking sites to see what I can get together. Or throw myself at the mercy of the train(s). Or see about a bus.
