Streets of Liverpool. Supposedly 1953 . This country suffered too, just like so many others do now.

Rug making in Primary School was also another hazard. Using such tools as shown, I remember one child ended up with a hook in her eye !

Next up:

Pop Group The Beatles July 1964 Paul McCartney Ringo Starr John Lennon George Harrison The Beatles arrive at Liverpool Airport . (this is the official synopsis , but it looks more like Liverpool city centre than the airport laugh )They could have been passing through.

Maybe the reason for re-naming it John Lennon Airport ?
