Anyone fancy going to the Liverpool War Museum one Saturday.
It costs £6 for one , but if a party of 10 would cost £3-50 each.
Go over and return by a bus, train or ferry using a saveaway or if you have a free pass click

quote from Derek... "If you spoke in a normal tone ,it went right round the room" what hes failed to tell you is he went into fits of laughter and had to run out of the room! haha, the library was great place to visit, so glad we went, all in all a fantastic day smile
Posted By: missmahjong Re: Liverpool War Museum - 16th Jun 2013 2:44pm
