Only just caught up with your street life pictures Quincy.
Once again you bring them to life. Now you should open a category for best captions. (Busy taking photos.)

wrong turn at Sunset Boulevard; this movie star coach looks rather out of place at Childwall 5 Ways

it's Jean Harlow (used the zoom on PC to see the signature) and Humphrey Bogart. Cary Grant and Ingrid Bergman where on the back

What an EXCELLENT thread!!! :)
Thank you SO MUCH, Quincy, for sharing these WONDERFUL pics and your great - and often hilarious - comments!
There's no place like Liverpool - and no people like the Scousers! Simply wonderful! :)
Btw, I think it's wonderful that you have mounted police over there - here we hardly ever see any.
How many Superlambananas are there now? I only remember the one, the big yellow one which used to stand near/on Mann Island (?) on the right-hand side, coming from Lord Street and crossing the Strand.
thank you, I decided to keep it going as I got quite a few email requests to do so.Quote:

Oh yes do keep it going if you can...it is most enjoyable to see your photo's.....I especially enjoyed the ones you took in my old birthplace of Crosby.....for me your photo's..like many others on the board are a wonderful trip down memory lane.....will save me having to go and visit everywhere when I next get up for a visit.....plus my hubby is also enjoying seeing them....:)
Seconded, thirded and fourthed - your pics are brilliant fun! By the way, do you ever actually spend any time at home?! You seem to be taking pics of the most diverse parts of Liverpool about 24 hours a day. Should we have a whip-round for you for a new pair of shoes?
Quincy has a chauffer.......He's called Bus Driver!Quote:

LOL oh I wish. a rocket pack would be fab, although not having a head for heights could scupper that plan a bit.Quote:

even my Cockney born hubby is learning about Liverpool during our travels. it keeps both of us out of mischief, well apart from him frightening dogs on buses lol.

http://i36.photobucket.com/albums/e2...icture2871.jpg
I love your pictures and captions.
I'd like a book of them :handclap::handclap: They are always so amusing :handclap:
Brilliant.. and totally funny.. I like the Anoraks anonymous..Very humorous.. :handclap:
They are brilliant Quincy.:handclap:
That's what our Forum Meet Ups are going to end up looking like :)Quote:

cheers folks. :hug:
that ice cream seller pitches there a couple of times a week. whenever I go past on the bus he's hardly doing a roaring trade. he occasionally goes through the North Park when it's full of kids, but he's not exactly surrounded.
there's a couple of specific places I still want to do over the water when I get the energy.
luv Quincy...anorak and proud!
Quincy, I like so many others here :) when they see the captions on your great pics, when's the next lot coming :PDT_Piratz_26:

Have to say it would be a lovely book especially with the Liverpool wit to go with it.Quote:

Yes we would - you would do a roaring trade :)
Yep! Put me at the top of the list for your book, Quincy :handclap: There's real love goes into those photos and the typical scouse humour just adds to our pleasure :) Think seriously about a book, you've already got a queue of keen fans lining up :) :handclap:
:PDT_Aliboronz_11:oh dear I don't know about that, but I doubt I could fill a pamphlet at the moment lol.
I'm quite happy posting them here and on Flickr, saves anyone having to pay to see them.
I'm genuinely touched that so many people seem to like them, perhaps I've found my vocation at long last eh?
I think you have Quincy :)
You have a talent there.
I always agree with Lindylou.Quote:
