The other day the Queen Mary II docked at Liverpool.  The weathr was great, a rare calm and sunny day in amongst all the wind and hurricanes we've been getting lately.  Here she is from a distance, showing the new Museum of Liverpool adjacent.

Theme Day: Under Construction



Back, after a while away - have moved house and a lot more besides.  Hence the gap in snaps.  However, this is nearly the ened of construction of the New Museum of Liverpool, which will no doubt house some Beatles stuff and some things about football...  It will have features about the "people of Liverpool"...

Snowy Weather


Lots of snow this week - took a walk by the river front and got this pic.  It's not like the river front in town which has a promenade and lots of people.  The shore near Garston is a lot more natural, if you can ignore the airport runway not 1 mile away.  Although the snow has kept many planes away lately...

The 39 Steps of Anfield


Freezing cold temperatures today so there've not been many people about.  I rode north, right up to Anfield, home of Liverpool FC.  The streets around the ground are pretty run down and halfway through being "regenerated" (knocked down).  This is one house in that area.

Bus Station Seats


Liverpool's new bus station (in the middle of Liverpool One) is already showing signs of wear and it's only 3 years old...

Dockside Pub


Another trip down the docks - this time in bright glaring sunshine.  I found this pub, seemingly full of life and doing its best to attract passing trade.  It was closed as it was only 10am (though there was probably a lock-in going on within).

Albert Dock


It was a lovely day today - just right for biking!  En route I got this shot of Liverpool's new waterfront.  This one is looking in with me back to the river, with a view of the new hotels and apartments that seem to have sprung up hereabouts...
