Forums Forums Wirral Information What's On Wirral Liverpool Catwalk World Record Event

As part of the Three Queens celebrations there is an event next Saturday 4th July at the Pier Head where they are trying to beat the world record for the amount of people going down a catwalk at one go. They need 5000 volunteers either forming groups or individuals. The group needs to be about 25 people and can be anything. To quote the website 'a host of groups, from belly dancers, a hip-hop dance act and staff who work at Fazakerley Hospital coffee shop – who will be donning their uniform of black trousers and red pinnies, to members of the Mersey Valley Ladies Golf Section who range in age from 30 to 80'
It's open to any group, ours is going after a brownie group so can include kids. If your allotment wants to send a group down in wellies and waving onions that's fine, just register. You won't be alone, our group is five people in rows of five just walking to the end of the runway and then off to the side for the next group. You don't have to be a model, it's supposed to reflect the people who live in and around Liverpool.

Final rehearsal was today, so it might be a bit late to join in - but it'd be an amazing thing to see!

No it's not too late, I asked the organisers at the rehearsal today and you can still register a group or individual. Would be nice if the North West was in the papers for something good.

maybe its just me being boring and having a bad day but this, for me, is the same category as watching cricket. I think the word "amazing" is rather OTT. As an allotment holder the idea of parading down a catwalk in wellies swinging my onions and cucumber doesn't quite float me boat. Ross Mchwirter will be turning in his grave.
