Hello
If you are going to Liverpool on a bike, don't park it in the meter bays. Unlike Wirral and Sefton councils, Liverpool City Council have changed the rules and if you park bikes in meter bays, you will get a ticket for "parking a vehicle in a place not designated for that vehicle."
There are no warning notices about this except in small print on the meters. Apparently they brought in this rule earlier in 2009 and stickered a few bikes with warning notices on the lead-up to the change. This is yet another money maker for Warren Bradley's lot.
Wirral and Sefton remain unchanged - up to now anyway.

CWC22
Saturday 27th March 2010
7:30pm onwards.
Location: TBC
CWC22 will be in aid of the Cumbria Flood Recovery Fund. There will be collection buckets going around throughout the event for those who wish to donate money. All monies donated will go straight to this cause.
For those of you who are not aware, parts of Cumbria were hit by major flooding in November 2009, taking a life, washing away major bridges, causing millions of pounds worth of damage to homes and businesses and causing mayhem to parts of the county. The Cumbria Flood Recovery Fund was set up to help everyone involved. Part of this is for individuals and families and part for community and voluntary groups, both those who have suffered themselves and groups who are helping others.
From classics to modern performance cars, join other car enthusiasts for a night of cruising, show off your pride and joy.
We hope you can join us.

Learning the art of tease & tweeze!
Hoylake on the Wirral is to be the location for a day of vintage inspired glamour and fun on Saturday the 24th of April.
Betty & Lilly’s Vintage Pamper Box is the perfect Hen celebration.
This fabulous event begins with a short class in 1950s style hair & make-up, if you’ve ever struggled to apply a French flick or wondered how to quickly create the perfect victory roll then this class is for you. Betty and Lilly will supply you with a simple list of items to bring from your own hair & make up kits so you can be sure to recreate the same looks at home.
Once you look a million dollars and of course after a well deserved cup of tea and slice of home made cake (well lifting eyelash curlers is so exhausting darling) you will then be taught a beginners class in Burlesque by the amazing Dani California.
Once the Burlesque moves are mastered this wonderful day will be finished off with a cheesecake style photo shoot. Using old school Hollywood glamour as inspiration. It really will be lights, camera, Glamour!
For more information phone Betty on 0151 625 2842 purchase tickets at https://express.iristickets.co.uk:443/k?cherrylounge

A member asked for information regarding Kinmel Street, Birkenhead. Of course the area was demolished and Europa Swimming Baths now occupy the site.
Here is a map of 1909 showing the street layout

I have some random memories of New Brighton in the sixties.Do any of these ring a bell?
The shelters and toilets at the end of Victoria Road - these were fine examples of Victoriana .
Paddy's cafe (I think that's what it was called) also in Victoria Road .
The ghost train in the Tower fair ground - as I recall, it had two huge (or so they seemed at the time - I was only a nipper!) white mountains with suitably horrific decoration.
Lastly, in 1970 I went to a flypast commemmorating the 40th anniversary of the Battle of Britain- a great day out .

Originally from home base chrome and glass. Bought for about 50 quid. Some slight surface rust in places.

Anyone else seen the cat that has taken to roaming the Asda car park on the Woodchurch? Does anyone know where the cat belongs? Strange place for a cat to hang out. I`ve stroked him a few times, but always hisses when he`s fed up of a fuss.
