The new Amsterdam at Liverpool?
Save Liverpool Docks and Waterways - Click
Deprived of its unique dockland waters Liverpool
becomes a Venice without canals, just another city, no
longer of special interest to anyone, least of all the
tourist. Would we visit a modernised Venice of filled in
canals to view its modern museum describing
how it once was?

I like Heswall shoreline and got sunk into the mud once hahah.
Too many closes too though, closes are evil!
Gididi Gididi Goo.
Loving the Wirral at the moment, especially the coastline. Moreton, Hoylake, West Kirby right down past Thurstaston to Parkgate and Neston.
WW, I didn't know Jim Bowen was born there !
Just shows you !! .. .. the things you find out once you get talking !
I knew Botham was from there though.
I did the Wallasey, Egremont, Liscard, New Brighton bit sat and sun. We always used to go the Ring O'Bells pub in West Kirby when the kids were younger as they have a great outdoor bit there.
