Yeah a black Lonsdale one.
If he looked like a female boxer from Fleetwood then yes it was Maxie.
And me mam is going to batter him when she gets a grip o him :D
An oldie I found on one my hard drives, with the Lady of Mann berthed near the landing stage. Sadly, she was sold off to SAOS Ferries and is somewhere in Greece nowadays.

I didn't use a tripod on this one. It was a case of "stop here while I take a pic of that building!"Quote:

Got an email saying that my new tripod was dispatched on Wednesday, but will probably get it by Monday at least.
Love my new camera though, my pics are coming out much better.
Very good. I am old and forget things so please remind me what camera you have, Max.

Mine says 10.1 Megapixel though and the front is different on mine, but all the same.
Very nice. Keep up the good work, young pup.
:)
Nice pic. Do you know what they're doing with that corner there?Quote:

Caught the colours just nice there Max.

Excellent Max. Nice and clear.
Park Road.
This closed down last week.
All the signs, etc., have been taken away.
This photo was taken on 29 October.
I didn't know it was going to close, I just decided it was about time I took a photo.
It's a big building. I wonder what's going to happen to it now?
It's the perfect site for a 50-storey tower block!
It's right next to the highest spot in Toxteth.
Its gonna be a supermarket, Tesco I think :)Quote:

Bingo, CRUSH! :mad:
Tesco Yay!:PDT_Aliboronz_24:
The Kwiksave (Sommerfield) is opposite.Quote:

Home and Bargain rocks when you want sweets and fizzy drinks.
Always buying cat litter from them too.
One just opened on penny lane shopping park with a netto.:PDT_Aliboronz_24:

I can get 5/6 full bags or two weeks worth of fruit and veg at 2pm or 2am for around £12-14. You just couldn't do that in Liverpool a bit to do with lack of demand too which is a real shame. You got the 'Tesco takeover' laying waste to vast tracts of urban high street and charging it's customers a premium to do so.
In Stoke Newington here, the only use most people have for our one supermarket (it's a Morrisons) is to spank it for tinned tomatoes.

All the supermarkets conspire together to fix their prices, so, apart from "Special Offers", the prices are all about the same.
Most noticeable are their own branded "Value" lines.
And they all go up by the same amount at the same time!
For instance, tinned potatoes went from 19p to 26p. Everywhere.
For years, a cheap tin of corned beef was 39p.
The price has crept up to double that in about 12 months.
Unfortunately, the convenience stores are even more expensive.
