Founder of City Life, former staff writer for Private Eye and one-time production editor of the rock ‘n’ roll magazine Mojo, Ed is also a celebrated author whose recent Manchester Compendium was described by the Independent newspaper as a 'superb work of in-depth research and dry Northern wit'. This irked Ed a little for he hails from London, Dalston no less, though he has lived in Manchester for 32 years. Ed devised the New Manchester Walks titles and descriptions.

Salford-born Sue has the CV of a supreme bonne vivante. She has PR’ed for Peter Stringfellow, DJ’ed on the Costa Brava, croupiered at Manchester’s Playboy Club and ran her own restaurant where she once cooked for Dire Straits and their people – all 45 of them. She's also the most qualified of the NMW guides: a Fellow of the Institute of Travel and Tourism and a London Blue Badge guide. She now cannot wait to show you around revitalised, regenerated and re-energised Manchester and Salford.
