The area was packed again with tourists taking snaps of each other by anything to do with the Beatles which is why we cannot possibly overplay them. Deacon Blue and Brit Floyd have just done the Echo arena and Blondie who were playing the 02 academy off London Road were staying in the Hard days night Beatles hotel just around the corner from here..
Not sure I like John's 'bob' hairdo!!! Love that it is all happening though. Friend of mine said today that Liverpool is packed in the city center every weekend recently and throngs of people having a good time. Love it!
That's true Roni, the pier head hasn't seen anything like it for a long time for sure. The new ferry landing stage is going in within the next few months too. The city centre is mayhem and it's great to see people sitting out al fresco at so many new bars around the likes of Duke St, Tithebarn st and Manchester St to name but a few and outside a few of the not so new bars like the Slaughterhouse and Queens.
Happy faces.
I didn't get into town until 4.30 ish today but the Gay Pride festival was in full swing.

If he thinks he looks good then he's a sponge short of a fruitcake.

too much wine, sorry
Isn't it partially sighted George, not partially blind? ;)
No,If I cannot read the text in a book,that means I'm partially blind ie everything is blurred and doesn't register as to what it is.Quote:

If I can read the text of large format but not small format then I'm partially sighted.
Tsk! ruddy amatuer. :)
Oh, a Lady-finger (little sponge cakes) short of a trifle!! Got it, lol:PDT_Piratz_26: Off to bank and post office now
In the US they are small long cakes...

The above Italian ones are crisp for tiramisu, which my wife expects. I'm not sure if I've seen spongey ones.
[/COLOR]All the English trifle recipes I have ever seen call for Lady Fingers. They are in packages , they are similar in texture to sponge but crisper. More solid. I have used them in the UK instead of sponge cake many times. They 'hold' better.
1 (8") sponge layer or 2 pkgs. lady fingers
1 1/2 c. chopped strawberries
1/2 c. sugar
1/2 c. sherry
2 c. heavy cream, whipped
3 c. custard, cold (I use Bird's English Dessert Mix, using 4 tbsp. each of mix & sugar, 2 1/2 c. milk) 7 whole strawberries & mint leaves (garnish)
Put sponge cake or lady fingers in small pieces in the bottom of a glass serving bowl. Top with strawberries, sugar and sherry. Spoon in cold custard. Top with whipped cream and garnish with mint leaves and whole berries. Chill until ready to serve. Trifle can also be made in individual parfait glasses. Other fruits may be added in place of all or part of the strawberries. However, the total amount should not excess 1 1/2 cups. Drained fruit cocktail may be used.

SCOTS' TRIFLE

1/2-1 c. strawberry jam (or raspberry or red currant jelly)
1 c. whipping cream
1/4 c. sugar
1 tsp. vanilla
6-8 almond macaroons (or shortbread cookies)

First port of call was Matou and that terrace - again. Just in time to see the bow thrusts set Aida on her way. There was a large crowd at the rear of the ship saying their goodbyes.

We had a pint in the Tradewinds bar, 2nd floor of the Atlantic Tower Hotel on the terrace and took this as the sun shone on the Liver. We got gabbing to a gang of lads from Newcastle, 3 from Blackburn who make a thing of going to different cities once every few weeks and we got the thumbs up and some Irish lads over for the match.

Then across to the corn market. This never used to be open on a Saturday, instead catering for office workers during the week which would see it stay open on friday nights only. Lots of blue funnel line pics in here on the wall and a fella playing the old joanna. Saw our old mate Luke from the Vernon in there who along with ourselves helped to keep the place open in the 80s.
