Didn't know where to post and didn't want a new thread. Mods delete, move or whatever it is you do in your spare time between putting on your frowns and waggling your fingers.
We've just returned from a trip to Liverpool. Ive not been since mid 80's when I was a yoof on a scoot attending scooter club do's to get pished and dance to northern soul. Ye we'd ride up from that sarf east London on lambrettas just to drink and dance with friends we'd made on rallies. Even met a scoot guy of lfc tour. Nice guy, sorry forgot name. (Gordon?)
Anyway, we had a great time. The Museum is great, the Lennon exhibition was moving and ends on 3rd Nov 2019. So hurry up if you've not been. We did the whole thing, the magical mystery tour, tour of anfield etc. We had a great time and yous should be rightfully proud of your city. We'll return for longer next yr, so we can go to the lesser known parts. Off the beaten track. Wifey is huge beatles fan as I am, so that was her driver.
£2.35 for a pint. £2.35!!. I ordered two in the old post office and had to ask if she'd made a mistake. No. £2.35. You can't even buy a pint for the £4.70 it cost me for two. Nice pub. Its normal for you guys and probably not an exemplary pub. But for me it was how pubs used to be in a way I'd forgotten. Lots of Liverpool was like that and it made me sad for what we've lost, but happy that it still existed somewhere.
£9.70 in Cavern though. To be expected I guess. Still, the acts were pretty good and I make no apologies for being a tourist.
The 6. Thats what I really wanted to see. I can die happy. Just as Bills statue says.
Paid my respects to the 96.
Cheers
