Relax in your local parks.
Shame that can't be said for the parks these days !! What with quad bikes, hoodies and dangerous dogs roaming around :rolleyes:

Thanks folks. I'd post some more up to date ones but don't wanna scare yers.
Thanks, Ged.
They're great.
Short trousers - that dates you.
I got my first longys when I was 14.
Is that tall chimney part of Clare Street Baths?
I knew it as the wash-house (pics of it on the reflections of liverpool website and the port cities) but never knew it as a baths, was it?
The street which ran up the side of it from Christian st to St. Anne street was Springfield street. St. Annes school was on one side with Jimmy Romero's (or Romeo's) sweet shop on the opposite corner of Clare st.
Can anyone make out the name of the street here above the bread van, seems to be a long name. It's supposed to be 3 women on the way to Clare st wash-house so can only be in the locality.
Picture is off the Reflections - photographs of Liverpool website.
Sorry Ged.
Another case of not checking before I post! :Colorz_Grey_PDT_24:
This is what I have on Clare Street Wash House:
Clare Street Wash House opened September 1935 on the site of the circus ring/auditorium of the old Adelphi Theatre, Christian Street. It closed 27 September 1969.
Former Library and former Clare Street Wash House (site of old Adelphi, Christian Street) Demolished 1986/7. Houses have been built on the site.
How do you find this stuff out Phil? :handclap:
From reading too much & spending a lot of time in the library, and then compiling my own "Annals", then I just do a search. :)Quote:
