Smiley tunnel faces

I mentioned this to my missus a few decades ago and she hadn't noticed til then and now when we drive past the Liver Buildings, it always makes us smile


Little happy smiley tunnel thingy :)

They both went in high, that's factually correct, both tried to play the ball at height.  Doku with his foot, Mac Allister with his chest.

:lmao

Not quite sure what the tunnel but refers to, unless you mean when you catch sight of the Liver Building as you come out of them.

Always remember my Grandad taking me into town by bus or sometimes driving in and straining to catch a glimpse of the Liver birds though. Still do slightly on the occasions I’m back, it is such an iconic building.

I must be strange too. 😊

If I'm not mistaken, Andy is referring to the Mersey Tunnel ventilation tower on The Strand. It looks, especially in certain lighting, like it has little faces on each side.
The light that burns twice as bright, burns half as long, and you've burned so very, very brightly, Jürgen.

Oh. That makes more sense! I know where you mean.

I withdraw my nostalgic remarks about how seeing a famous building makes me feel.

Well your not because you explained what he clearly never explained and his post just sounded weird, but he is also a man that never wears shorts even in the summertime so it is to be expected.

And now when you all go past there, you'll be able to have a little smile yourself looking at them :)

Yeah it does. Used to be able to see it from my apartment and of an evening when it lights up it looks like one even more.

Was that before the letting agent turned up and spoiled your evening reverie?
