Is it a boat or a bus ?
Ged

A duck billed platy-bus.

I must go on that again this summer, I particularly like the wit of the commentator and when it splashes into the dock to give that little bit of the tour.

It might look overcast on the pic but it was warm and clammy over there today and the sun actually shone at about 5pm. The fair was packed and looked well. Anyway, with good ol fish n' chips followed by a hot doughnut, who needs it to be boiling hot.

I fancied fish & chips after my night stroll round the Albert Dock, only to find my local chippie was closed.

Here's a new "Reflections" site which should prove popular with snappers.

Jubilee Drive, Kensington, Liverpool. This part of Liverpool has been re-classified as a conservation area. Nice to see the old houses ( ca late 1890s) all back to their uniform original yellow brick colour removing some of the worse excesses of red etc brick paint.

The old airport terminal building is now a Marriot hotel as we know. You can get apron side as well now which is just a great big car park really. Some more pics of the place at the bottom of this page: http://inacityliving.piczo.com/?g=42204765&cr=7
