    Worth heading out to Formby too, to see the red squirrels in the pine woods and have a stroll along the beach

    I like the fact that the Everton club shop was called Everton Two

    It makes their address Everton Two, Liverpool One

    It's actually ok if you want to grab something quick in one of the chain eating places. Chinatown too is only a 10 minute walk away. If you have the car there are lots of places on Merseyside and it's a lot less busy traffic-wise than the other side of the M6 at Wigan and Manchester.

    If you get a chance, visit the Western Approaches War Museum at Derby House, near the Pier Head - it's the secret Royal Navy bunker where the Battle of the Atlantic was won.

    In the 1950s, my Dad worked in Derby House and never even knew it was down there, as it was still Top Secret at the time

    which is not always preferable to a glass to the face tbh!

    Especially when the singing starts.

    that's grilled by the hand of God? Unlike the Madonna steak which is "touched for the very first time".

    sorry to say I just drove through it fast.
