Interesting photograph, Kev. Unusual perspective to see St. Nick's between the Mersey Tunnel offices and Cunard Building like that. :PDT11 :handclap:

Thanks folks.
That was only my second attempt at fireworks (after QE2).
I think I'll start a thread for Fireworks, as we don't seem to have
one.

Thank you, but it wasn't too difficult.
It's one of the rare times I used a tripod, and the camera was set on the night-time setting.
Oh, and I took loads, because only a small percentage were good.

The Delarringas have tombs in Allerton Cemetary. They were shipping owners, the Delarringa Line, which operated until the 1960/70s. They were obviously of Spanish decent.

Very interesting, marky. Wanting to find out more about the Resurgam, the world's second mechanically propelled submarine, built in Birkenhead in 1879, I found this interesting site about the wreck of the sub off Rhyl where she foundered on February 25th 1880 while being towed:
http://www.3hconsulting.com/SitesResurgam.htm
Resurgam, a steam-powered submarine, was designed and patented by Manchester clergyman Reverend George William Garrett. The submarine was built in 1879 by Cochran & Co in Birkenhead for the then cost of £1500.
That same wreck site cited above, by the way, has information on the wreck of the Mary Rose and other interesting wrecks around the UK -- worth a look-see. :)

The original Resurgam is in good condition and there was talk of raising her. She sunk while being towed to Portsmouth from Birkenhead. The crew got out as they had trouble with the tow line. The hatches could not be secured from outside the sub, only inside, so waves went over the sub and down the hatch sinking the brand new sub. It was the first modern submarine.
Does the replica actually work?

Liverpool bus
Great pic Lindy, got one of that myself and the back. I wonder what some other English cities except London would find to put on their buses?
ps. I see the Liver was voted most iconic N.W. building (somehow Morrisey pipped the Beatles and Oasis in the music catergory :disgust:)
