    Default Peter Pan returns home



    Peter Pan returns home



    LIVERPOOL'S Peter Pan statue has moved back to its original home in Sefton Park after undergoing restoration work costing £43,000.

    The statue has been fully restored and Peter is back to his former glory, along with the variety of animals and fairies which adorn the piece.

    Peter's new home is alongside the Palm House in a secure area of the park.

    Glad to hear it's in a secure area,
    Ermine tastes much the same as sackcloth when there's nothing left to eat.

    They look like names but don't know what they say and why they would have peoples signitures beamed onto the park.

    Default Festivals in Liverpool Parks

    A NEW "super" licence to enable festivals to take place in Liverpool's major parks and key areas of the city is being sought.

    The annual licence will mean council bosses do not have to make separate applications for every individual event.

    Included will be the biggest public parks in the city - Sefton Park, Calderstones and Camp Hill, Otterspool Park and Promenade, The Mystery at Wavertree, Croxteth Park, Walton Hall Park, Stanley Park, Newsham Park and Princes Park.

    The city council, with the Liverpool Culture Company, is aiming to obtain the Premises Licence to enable the staging of entertainment across five distinct areas in the city, including the public parks.

    The move is a requirement of the recently introduced 2003 Licensing Act. Officials say the new licence is a permission to plan and deliver free and paid-for events over a 12-month period without having to apply one at a time for every individual event, on a time-consuming and expensive case-by-case basis.

    Liverpool's Premises Licence Application will cover all streets and public open spaces in Liverpool city centre: inside Upper Parliament Street, Myrtle St, Crown Street Pembroke Place, Hunter Street and Leeds Street. It also covers the Kings dock, Albert dock, Pier Head and the docks to the north of this, up to the city boundary with Sefton.

    Even if the licence is granted, event organisers will still have to meet strict criteria overseen by a Safety Advisory Group. more

    Wouldn't that be great if that happened,I'd love to see the eros fountain put outside the new Kings Dock arena because it would be less likely to be vandalised there.

    Would be nice if they took some of that money and used it to patrol the park 24/7 to prevent vandalism.
