Can I join the Liverpool appreciation society?  Seeing some of the street names brought back a flood of memories. 

I spent 4 years as a student in Liverpool and loved it.  I remember Smithdown Road really well, we used to live on Gainsborough Road which is just off of it.  Oh the memories....

Anyway, where would I want to esape to?  Well if Susan decided we go to Scotland then so be it, it is a lovely part of the country.

Otherwise I would probably try Sicily for a while.  Susan has family there and we spent a week there in the summer and loved it.

I could be the next Don....

Justin

Thinking about it I don´t know why we didn´t consider Sicily in the first place at least we would have had family help with bureacracy etc but I think I might go a little crazy there with the lack of infrastructure.

Scotland?????   My partner who is Scottish, fled as soon as possible.  Awful weather - during a very recent ten-day visit it rained every single day, mind-numbing conformity, at least in Western Scotland, plus horrendous inner-city deprivation in the major cities are enough to make anyone flee.

Granted, there are areasof incredible beauty albeit of the rather harsh variety -not to be compared with the softly undulating green hills, chalk cliffs and exquisite bays of my native Dorset....

 

Far better to stay in Spain and prepare for doomsday by stocking up on good Cava and jambon.

Hi Justin well Gainsborough  road is still the place to be if you are a student and most students still drink and eat along smithdown road and allerton road is a great place also for a night out.I was just in the city centre yesterday the area is called Liverpool 1.There is a big wheel with views over the River Mersey and ice skating this winter and the Xmas lights are fantastic this year.I will take some pictures next time i go to the city centre and put them on the eye on Spain Irene
