Whether it's a pile of sh*te or not, me and Sausage are off to see it now and watch it 'run' through the tunnel.

Will take pictures for you to see smile

What a waste of money for 1.5 million is my opinion.

Okay it looks good etc,

ours it still belongs to the french man.

How long its here for i don't know.
But why is it the Finale tonight ?

I was dissapointed with it and i posted on their web site to let them know, but my comment never appeared, it seems they are only posting positive comments!!!! What has a spider got to do with Liverpool? It should have been an all singing , all dancing, liver bird breathing fire.Lots of people said it should have been a beetle!!! Some people may have wanted to hang Ringo, but as a person who is not born and bred in Liverpool I still say it should have been a liver bird.

It was possibly an amazing feat, all I know is I was more Interested and busy cocnerning the New Brighton Rally....and having to get the train back from Preston to Liverpool, then home... I wasnt happy WHATSOFUCKINGEVER to see about 9000 people on the wirral line platform at Lime Street, just to see a giant robot spider.

Im tired, in pain, and angry that so many people have so much free time...grrrrrrr..

Rant over

My comment was directed at picking Africa as a recipient of the cash spent (which was then explained to be an example place, and left me quite happy) not against the spider per se. I have no feelings either way with regards to La Princesse. It is indeed a magnificent piece of machinery and I'm glad it has brought some much needed revenue and good publicity to the area, but I do fail to see why a spider.

As for putting my hand in my pocket to help those less fortunate than myself, I do - even though I am myself on benefits!

And regards Mother Theresa walking the streets of Liverpool with Manweb vouchers - would she be with Elvis, Lord Lucan and Jim Morrison per chance as she is as dead as they are raftl
