For the rest of us who live on planet earth this could turn into an interesting thread:PDT11 As stated before i think the river walkway could have statues to all of Liverpool culture settlers. Scottie road would be a great place to remember the Irish, as so many lived there in those early years.
P.s Racist ( corrected typo ) need not reply to this thread :)
It's how you tell 'em.Quote:

Frances Georgiana Chenevix Trench was born in Tuebrook, Liverpool in 1891 where her father was the Anglican vicar. She became a convinced Irish Nationalist and Gaelic Leaguer deeply involved in the cultural revival as the movement for Home Rule developed. She was an associate of such as Piaras Beaslai (also born in Liverpool), the poet Æ and Douglas Hyde, founder of the Gaelic League. She trained as an artist and her work is in The National Gallery of Ireland, the National Library, and in private collections. Her diaries tell of her life during the first two decades of the twentieth century, a crucial time in Ireland’s history. That life was tragically cut short by the influenza epidemic soon after her marriage to Diarmid Coffey in 1918. Hilary Pyle has edited her diaries and produced a limpid biography of this extraordinary young woman.
Dr Hilary Pyle RHA, Yeats Curator at the National Gallery of Ireland, art critic
and biographer, has published poetry and biographies of James Stephens, Jack B Yeats and Susan Mitchell.

He just has views that may sound harsh to some.
So were Galileo, Winston Churchill, Tesla, etc.Quote:

They are the ones with the harsh views, they are trying to make out we are something we are not.Quote:
