I don't know, Gerard.
I worked on the Ribble buses when I first came to Liverpool, so never went into the bar (not while working).
Wasn't I a good boy?
I forgot to add this pic to the others.

Ey up Phil. Some more tower blocks for my webby there. I'll check out your new 'old liverpool photies'
The bus has just crossed Prescot Street from Moss St in the background. It has now entered Daulby Street in this Sept 70 shot. On the right is the Majestic Cinema who stood on the corner of Daulby st and Boundary Place. This block was demolished as part of the Royal Liverpool Hospital site. The pic is by A.F. Gahan.
Great pics everyone!
I only wish I could go back there....looked like a good era!
Keep up the good work!
Nice one Ged . L253 is 2 vehicles up from my Preserved one L255Quote:
