LACES OUT! TRAINER FESTIVAL
Event date: Saturday June 22, 2019
Love a fresh pair of kicks or maybe something a little bit old school? Then this June you will be in your element when the LACES OUT! Festival heads to the city.

Established since 2014, the trainer festival has since grown to be one of the UK’s largest celebrations of the sneaker community. The one-day event brings together thousands of collectors and traders with pairs of vintage, rare, boxfresh and deadstock trainers to buy, sell, swap or just covet!

LACES OUT! Is the only major event of its kind in the North of England, a place renowned for its deep-rooted affiliation with the casual sportswear phenomena.

The event will be located at the Invisible Wind Factory on Saturday 22nd June, general admission £11.00 from 1.00pm-5.00pm, Ultra VIP admission £17.00 from 12.30pm-5.00pm (includes Laces Out! Goody bag)

Looks decent that.

Anyone going to LIMF this weekend? I've got my ticket but will only be going the Saturday as I'm guessing I will be horrendously hungover the Sunday!

I'll be watching Nile Rodgers & Chic.

Planning on going Saturday night for Chic but probably won't bother if the weather is shite (which looks likely based on the current forecast)

Just back from walking the dog around the LIMF site and now watching from the window. Music is shite, but watching all the teenage girls getting marched home by their dads, pissed out if their heads, has been entertaining. Always entertaining watching arrests being made from the window too. $:-\$

There seems to be an awful lot of young girls getting into trouble this year. Loads downing as much alcohol as possible before going in. Seems to be a good police and stewarding presence this time, thankfully, and we can actually get in and out of our flats ok for once because they have stewards on the gates stopping outsiders piling in like they usually do.

Yes, I'm Victor Meldrew.

John C · « **Reply #97 on:** July 21, 2019, 08:57:42 pm »

Apparently kids under 16 had no chance getting in without an adult. Sly on them to be honest. Let the kids in and have a lovely time. If they're pricks, like adults can be also, chuck them out. But don't be fucking harsh and restrict entry.

Down with being miserable towards sensible kids

AndyMuller · « **Reply #98 on:** July 21, 2019, 09:12:15 pm »

Too many kids asking me to buy them ale yesterday. Done me head in and they were bladdered already can’t handle their ale.

St Helens carboot sale is held in a multi story car park so it's not too bad if it's raining.

Check that it's still held there as I haven't been for a while

CraigDS · « **Reply #101 on:** September 1, 2019, 11:59:56 am »

Leisure Lakes (Mere Brow) used to have one, but not sure if that’s linked to the Burscough one or not as pretty close by.

It was so loud last night we had the windows shut and the telly volume at number 30. This event and the last one seem to be far better stewarded than previous events, thankfully. They've kept all the selfish twats from bunking into our car park, so residents can actually get into their own spaces again now. I had to show my gate keyfob before they'd even let me through last night. Seems lessons have been learned after previous free-for-alls.

Bit late here, but Heritage Open Days still has the rest of the week to run. Go to Liverpool in the 'all towns' dropdown.

The start of it being cut altogether sadly I'd imagine. Things like this is what makes Liverpool so great and to have them at risk because of cuts is infuriating

I have told our Darren to dock it where Craig can see it, told him to use this as a reference parked neaby if he is unsure..

He will sound the horn a few times before the ship leaves in case you are at the gym.

She's just left Portsmouth... https://twitter.com/HMSPWLS

Seems like the issuing of tickets to go onboard might have been organised slightly better...https://twitter.com/RoyalNavy/status/1227907549040697344

Liverpool City Council should never have been involved in issuing Tickets, as local RNA/Sea Cadet branches/Units have missed out. Allowing people to Queue to board on one brow and leave by another would have worked better.

You would have thought some priority would perhaps have been given to those organisations.

According to here...https://www.royalnavy.mod.uk/news-and-latest-activity/news/2020/february/13/200213-tickets-for-hms-prince-of-wales

People without a ticket can still view the ship at the Liverpool Cruise Terminal from public areas such as Princes Parade. There will be some local road closures in place for the duration of the visit.

For anyone who's interested but who can't get there, I expect one of the Mersey webcams will be streaming her arrival though I'm not sure exactly when that will be at the moment.
