Liverpool

Yesterday I visited Liverpool.  I was pleasantly surprised by how vibrant the city felt as it’s a place I’ve rarely visited, despite my paternal Grandfather originating from the city.  I went to meet Enid, a Liverpudlian friend I’d met through following Kristina Rihanoff. We explored the “historical area” made famous by The Beatles before finding a restaurant on the Albert Dock. As Enid and I sat and chatted, I reflected that trawlerman Charles Hickford wouldn’t recognise the place 100 years on, as the whole of the Docks area has been re-developed into an attractive waterfront with Bijou shops and apartments.
