    But I'm not thinking of her like that, I'm thinking of her avatar like that! It's certainly wide eyed - I'm just guessing about the legless bit.

    Incidentally, I've always loved that song.

    No. not since summer really. I may get chance to go tuesday but its a busy time of year. maybe take some modern pics of area??? Still trying to track down pics of st patricks hyslop/upper hill street so cant decide which to go for if i make it to liverpool. i need to fit some christmas shopping in too. So much to do-so little time. But i have managed to get a few pics of the area from people on friends reunited and off here-this site is amazing-hope i can manage when it changes -im not good with navigating. Ive spoken to liverpool record office too so if i go there they may have stuff. They found me some amazing pictures of a pub called the old curiosity vaults in park lane last time-which were brilliant-i was so chuffed.

    Everyone loves the accent. People used to ask me to say stuff everywhere I went and I don't even have a great Scouse accent. Let us know when you're next in the Pool and I'll buy ya a drink.

    will do. wont be this side of 2009 now-no time and lots to do. where do you go thats good??? I somtimes get in some liverpool pubs as i help out my sister with pub vending machines and its a rare old treat to do liverpool. I notice that the people in the bars in liverpool are far more friendly than the manchester ones we do-no offence to them , but its true!! The staff and customers. I just feel at home there for some reason. Theres a good one on the big main street near egerton street in liverpool 8-well two actually-one on the right and one close by on the left-and they are really friendly staff in there. They always offer you a brew and a smile. will just check the map to see if i can suss out the road-egerton street is on the left as you drive down -cutting off this main road. do you know it???

    More 'social cleansing' from 1971 - nothing has changed in 40 years.
