bloody trees where in the way to get a complete looking pic

poo. i was there today buying house lights from the place on the corner

and you didnt take the oppurtunity to add to the archive of picture wirral, shame on you

Amazing waddi

Your the match man, well done there and shame on whelan lol

Will make new topics at the weekend

originally thought this was frankby road, where they usually have rabbits and ducklings for sale. went there today, dont think it is there actually.

SO we studied the pic once again, enlarged and enhanced it and noticed that the building in the back ground had a sign on it saying "The Boat House", bingo Parkgate.

So we went there, pretty sure it is one in the same, the old brick building on the right of the pic is no longer there, its a car showroom and carpark now, but because of trees I couldnt get a good pic, then it started lashing down so I wasnt hanging around anymore because I had the babies with me.

Didnt I already say that

but you didnt go and get a comparison picture stuy boy

I dont get time
