    I saw that link on Facebook this morning, it's brilliant. Shows Liverpool as the city that it really is, not the one that people imagine that it is xx

      And don't people imagine quite a bit!
      I was prompted to put this up by Heart-Shaped who had been on a trip to Liverpool, and it reminded me that what I think of as 'just Liverpool' is actually a really good place to visit!

    Well done for posting this. I've loved visiting Liverpool the couple of times I've been nearby and this post shows even more places to visit.

      they were pretty grotty...., the council condemned them, so the college bought them and put students in. I looked on google maps and they've been done up again now. so funny to see all the places I remember, and some new things. We used to go to Albert Docks and watch them film the weather on a foam map of the UK that floated on the water.

      What was your favourite part? Or were you here after the riots when I have to admit the city was not a pretty sight?

    Haven't been to Liverpool since we took a school trip for a tour of the university. It's on my list of places to visit now that I can really appreciate them.

    Loved that link. Naaaa, don't think it's got much going for it. I've never visited Liverpool, I really should remedy that, especially as it isn't really that far away.

      Which great Northern powerhouse do you live in or near? Leeds? Sheffield? Bradford? I think every city has something good going for them, if only the friendliness of the people.

      Except perhaps for Milton Keynes. I don't know what its good points are.

    I haven't been to Liverpool in so so long. It looks so different to how I remember. I will, however, be spending quite a lot of time there from September. I'm looking forward to it now. Really pleased to have found your blog via Judiths. Please pop over and visit me sometime too. X

My Latest Trick...

I really need to introduce you to my latest hooky love, before it gets finished and I end up not telling you the back story. Let me show you what I'm on about first; World, meet Autumn Ripple Blanket (Autumn for short). You see, I have a granny square with flowers and a black background blanket that I'm desperate to finish for my bedroom, and a list of decorative items I'd like to do for Autumn and Christmas, so I sat down last week to make an Autumn Inspirations board on Pinterest (like you do) and made this; https://www.pinterest.com/angeljem5/autumn-and-fall/ and I loved the colours and the feelings it aroused in me. Colour-wise I am a warm autumn, but very often misbehave and don't wear them (long reason; won't say now) but I do love them, and the whole Season of Mists and Mellow Fruitfulness bit, so the board keeps filling up with pure autumnal inspiration. Until this one hits my eye. From The Glamorous Housewife's site . And the colours are be...

Hallowe'en... good or bad?

For years when mine were little, we studiously avoided Hallowe'en. We went to the Church's Light Party (if fancy dress was in order, it was superheroes, or princesses not witches or skeletons) and made little or no adjustment to the daily order, so no bobbing for apples, peeling skins for divination or any thing that smacked of magicality at all. It worked for us; we didn't go Trick or treating, and those who visited us were politely told, "We don't celebrate Hallowe'en here" The children grew up sensible and well-adjusted, they don't do gross horror films and I'm proud of them. This year they are all old enough to make up their own mind. The lads are easy; if it involves effort, then they're not bothered. But the Princess is a great joiner, and wants to be part of her group. So when a friend invited her to a Hallowe'en party I gave her the option; of course the answer was yes. "I'm not celebrating Hallowe'en," she said,...
