Indeed 'Manchester Tart' dates back to pop art legend LS Lowry. Some of his early paintings, pre matchstick men and matchstick cats and dogs......ally ally ooooooooo, were from his struggling Manc artist years. He was very much part of the Victorian piss ant scene with other Cubist legends Mark E Smith and Morrissey. Many a whore was fingered by these 3 (though question marks hang over Morrissey doing any fingering). Anyway, legend as it that Betty Turpins infamous hot pot was actually situated between her legs and not on a bar meal menu. Turpin was the release and comfort to many a hard working mill worker after a hard days shift.

That my friends was the first usage of the phrase 'Manchester Tart' and credit to Messers Lowry, Morrissey and Smith for this....and of course less we forget Turpin whom by notoriety had had more hands up her than Sooty, had seen more Japs eyes than an Oriental optician, had a minge like a ripped out fireplace or busted settee, had a muff like a yawning donkey, a fanny like a stuntmans knee, had a pair of flaps like a gutted trout and evidently had been cocked more times than Elmer Fudd's shotgun
