    Great picture gregs dad.



    I've always thought the Anglican Cathedral was missing something?

    Okay, thanks, Joe. I guessed actually that it was probably something like that but wasn't sure. Good work.

    Seriously, I've never seen an image of the Liver Bird in flight, so that's an unusual one. Great photos, Mandy!

    Me neither - It would be a much shorter thread if it was called "Go! Post a Flying Liverbird Picture!"

    I'm completely flummoxed over what it represents. Mandy's thrown us a curve ball here, and raised the bar for us all as well. Perhaps it's something that Mandy has made herself? Come on now, own up time - it's a Blue Peter special isn't it?

    Thanks Mandy.

    I wonder if the art deco knight is meant to be Britainnia?

    There’s a rather nice showcase in the New Museum on the theme of the origin of the Liver Birds, wherein each of the various birds pictured stakes its claim to be the true Liver Bird…





    Then there’s this one… Can anyone tell us where this was originally? I think I know, but can’t guarantee the authenticity of my information…
