I can't remember the name of the hotel, but I stayed there during my first week at SAS. Just by the road tunnel on the Wilmslow side. Later, it was famous for its "Grab a Granny" disco nights...
It was July, baking hot, and, just after 0600, with hotel room windows open, I was greeted with the early-morning "chorus" of starting B1-11s, followed by their very "stage two" departures. No chance of a lie in.
