Wirral council have just bought VUE cinema for £7million and taken back the freehold on Birkenhead Market so they can "completely reshape the town centre" according to the Wirral Globe,
sound ominous "reshape" flatten?
another pie in the sky promise that will just line the pockets of so called consultants and these mystery development companies.?
Mid-morning today, the lights suddenly went very dim, and slowly got dimmer for about five or ten minutes. Clearly a big drop in voltage.It was then just as suddenly restored.
It was enough to scramble the brains of my piano (electric) changing the settings on it, and the boiler was so baffled by the event it stopped work entirely, and had to be coaxed back to work by power cycling it.
My desktop carried on as normal and so did the monitors on it. I guess they have switchmode supplies that will operate down to about 100 volts.
On saturday i saw the stupid distracted young sitting down in birkenhead shops as a silly " protest " against supposed myths of global warming hysteria. The worlds gona end next week type rubbish. Sorry but GW is about taxing people / upping their bills / corporate agenda nothing more. They need to look into the past.... The mini ice age in the 1600s Don easterbrook proves in court co2 doesnt cause GW Ice skating on the thames Niagra falls freezin solid long before cars vans planes etc. The atmosphere is 75 % water Co2 feeds plants. Its good. The oceans have 50 times the co2 of the sky Termites produce more co2 than people Listen to piers corbyn , friends of science dot com. Listen to dan pena talking about GW via mortgages in florida ( very good points ) We had a period of cooling from 78 to 98 , FACT. Look into drax power station in yorks & how it ships billions of dollars of US wood from carolina to be burnt cause the EU doesnt allow coal burning. Who pays for that?? The public user bill payers.... It would take over 20k wind farms to produce draxs power levels. Its never gona fill the gap, rotor farms or solar. Google dominican / haiti border picture....one side bland , one side lush greenery.....guess which side has GW sanctions on it ?? The beige bland one.. Im fed up of GW hysteria when itll prob be our food consumption & over population thatll be our demise as told in docufilm " cowspriracy " Human kind ( ego led ) just wont accept the weather happens despite us not because of us.
Reports from Petpals that biscuits laced with nails have been found in Parkgate. Same thing happened in a Widnes park a while back apparently , so be vigilant everywhere, but especially in parks .Please put a message on your FB and share , to keep as many dogs safe as poss.
The River Tame in Greater Manchester has the highest levels of of microplastics anywhere in the world. This, combined with toxic algae produced by rising global temperatures, means our waterbirds are living in a poisonous, plastic soup. Help us call for a new deal for nature that protects and restores our wildlife. Email your MP here: http://ow.ly/sp8S30nB9n9
A movie made around Birkenhead called The Violators is now available on Netflix. The Hollywood Reporter describes it as 'a bracing bleak blast of social realism from a corner of England rarely seen on screen'. Meanwhile another American magazine, Variety, describes it as being set in a rundown suburb in the picturesque English county of Cheshire! I initially thought it was in Manchester as there was a reference to Mancland and there are some Manc accents and NO scouse ones. Weird. Nice to see my house made it to the big screen. Usual dish of despair and scuzzies.
Anyone recommend someone that can test and repair or replace a dish. I was bought a Humax box at Christmas and when set up it says weak or no signal. Box is brand new but still I had someone test it at their house and it was fine. I have never used the dish before as it was already here when I moved in. Thanks in advance for any help.

Found on Saturday wandering down Lansdowne Road/Tollemache Road near Claughton/Bidston a Male tri-colour Cavalier King Charler Spaniel.
He's a well, looked after and v friendly little chap, i'm sure someone is missing him. Think i've seen him being walked past my house but don't know him enough to know his owner.
Does anyone know who he belongs to? Picture attached.
What will happen if the light of the moon goes out ?
China's moon mission has seen the first seed sprout. IF scientists want to inhabit the moon, covering it in vegetation would put the light out .
It does say in the good book that darkness will cover the earth. Maybe this is why ? but there's also the tides weather and wildlife that would be affected.
Hi All - just wondered if anyone can shed light on a 'water feature' noted in old mapping in vicinity of Croome Drive,West Kirby. As you can see from the attach snippet it doesn't seem to be attached to a stream/brook so wondered if anyone would know how/what it is or have any historic photos?
The North West's favourite weather girl, Diane Oxberry, passed away yesterday morning. It seems only like a couple of days since she was doing the weather. Such a shock and very sad. RIP Diane, you will be missed so much.
We are so behind in the worldwide recycling arena. Admittedly we don't have the odd patch of land to start building, but it could be a project with giving some land for the homeless people who fancy having a go, and to get stuck into. I'm sure many would enjoy the challenge, if they dropped out, someone else could take over. There are some really great ones. What do you think ?
My friend messaged me before asking about their corsa's headlight.Said it's not as bright as the left side,tried changing bulbs but it's still the same.Had an issue with the indicator so had the relay changed,works fine when turning but said it looks like the orange light is stuck on.I haven't seen it,they only asked with me having a corsa just wanted to see if anyone had any ideas.
If you see your fish swimming on its side or floating to the top of the tank ,get a a container or a soup mug ,fill it half full with the tank water then add 2 scoops of Epsom salts .Remove the fish from the tank and put it in the container or mug.supervise the fish for at least 1 minute .remove the fish from the container and put it back into the tank.
Do not feed your fish for 1 day .
anyone with pet rabbits i will put another tip on here later .
Saw this on another forumn. Thought it was important to spread the word. "Don't feed your dogs food bought from B+M i.e. beef jerky dog treats etc. Apparently injected with something that destroys the kidneys, two dogs had to be put down. Vet has reported it but could take time for stores to clear shelves " Hope this ok to report on here , as I say just sharing someone's post.
Don't know what to think, it all seems to fall into place as we see things happening from our own perceptive as in Europe, Regional as in planned land banking of green belt , unelected Governments as in EU etc. and NGO's like George Soros . Scary stuff ! I can see the reasoning behind the idea , but can't agree with the intended implications . (if that's the right word) Don't like it .. sounds more straight forward.
One of the 39 condemned prisoners was granted a reprieve.[23]:252–259[28] The Army executed the 38 remaining prisoners by hanging on December 26, 1862, in Mankato, Minnesota. It remains the largest mass execution in American history.
The mass execution was performed publicly on a single scaffold platform. After regimental surgeons pronounced the prisoners dead, they were buried en masse in a trench in the sand of the riverbank. Before they were buried, an unknown person nicknamed "Dr. Sheardown" possibly removed some of the prisoners' skin.[29] Small boxes purportedly containing the skin later were sold in Mankato.
At least two Sioux leaders, Little Six and Medicine Bottle, escaped to Canada. They were captured, drugged, and returned to the United States. They were hanged at Fort Snelling in 1865.[30]
Medical aftermath[edit]
Because of the high demand for cadavers for anatomical study, several doctors wanted to obtain the bodies after the execution. The grave was reopened in the night and the bodies were distributed among the doctors, a practice common in the era. William Worrall Mayo received the body of Maȟpiya Akan Nažiŋ (Stands on Clouds), also known as "Cut Nose".
Mayo brought the body of Maȟpiya Akan Nažiŋ to Le Sueur, Minnesota, where he dissected it in the presence of medical colleagues.[31]:77–78 Afterward, he had the skeleton cleaned, dried and varnished. Mayo kept it in an iron kettle in his home office. His sons received their first lessons in osteology based on this skeleton.[31]:167 In the late 20th century, the identifiable remains of Maȟpiya Akan Nažiŋ and other Indians were returned by the Mayo Clinic to a Dakota tribe for reburial per the Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation Act.
Radio Merseysides Billy Butler not had his contract renewed and hes not too happy about it.His last show Friday 28th Dec. Have noticed over the last couple of years a slight decline in him (he is 77) but he was IMO still good enough for Radio . Certainly better than one of the guys they have on there in the daytime. . Was on his show quite a few years ago when he was interviewing me about 911 as I had something to do with 911forum.org.uk and the intended speaker couldnt make it from Bristol. He was doing a series on conspiracy theories.. One voice I will miss from the radio
Is there going to be pressure on all companies to make their products automatically Halal , since continuing to provide two different versions may not be financially viable , as we have already seen in the production of meat to schools in some places. We seem to me to be getting swept down a very slippery road.
Hour or 2 ago .according to my dear lady bus and car involved close to the Longcroft Fellowship. Door off bus and car looked in a bad way. Road blocked and cars turning to go back way they came.
Came across this the other day. which is really interesting for various medieval history of the area.
On page 21 there is a map of the Priory lands which if you are still around Derek, you might be interested in, as I remember you were looking for information a few years back.
