We have a Liverpool Road in my town.

It used to be a one-horse town but then the horse died.

Nice pictures I was in liverpool in the spring over the past two years . Your shots bring back grate memories My Uncal Andy has apet shop on Finch Lane called Toney's after his eldest daughter . Tracey White (the soap actress is his youngest . I stroled down Alberts Dock's with him . Andy started as a sailer at age 15 . My cousens have said to me strolling in liverpool."We have houses older than your country . My father tow years ago wanted to walk over to the docks so we could knock the Lima bird off a building to ensure Liverpool wins the cup . This ones a bit long sorry you might have to edit . Brings out the nastalia in me . Missing the Pool

Oh Lillywhite I would never edit some elses nostalgia! Tracey's character was Bev McCloughlin and she married Ron Dixon . The archivist that used to work at our place used to know Tracey and would bump in to her at the shops!!
Wow it's a wonderfully small world.
Come over again any time! If you want me to post particular pics either ask Tracey or E mail me through my profile.
