I like these slogans on the hoardings at Liverpool ONE:

And finally, a photograph I'm really pleased with; I have really enjoyed walking around this area since the redevelopment:

This isn't the same Liverpool we were living and working in five and ten years ago.
To anyone who knocks Liverpool now, I'd just say to them: "Come and see Liverpool, come and see what Liverpool's like today, not what it was like years ago. We've moved on." Then I'd show them the above photograph. I'm proud to be a Scouser, and I'm absolutely made up to see the work that's going into the city right now.
