Anyway, I had fun in Liverpool. It was a tiring two weeks where I was trained to be a trainer as part of a new sales process overhaul that we are going through in work. It was challenging not least because I had to stand up in front of some very experienced people and try to convince them that change is a good thing.
After several days of this mental strain we decided to take in some live music. We heard some Irish music which unfortunately did not include the Mountains of Mourne, then a fantastic guitarist/singer doing lots of covers (including battle of the banjos on one guitar!) and then just a hint of a hint of what it must have been like to experience the Beatles live at the Cavern. We caught a tribute band which you can see below - they were pretty good!
Although many parts of the country were swimming in flood water we enjoyed a few good days in Liverpool. We even had some beautiful sunsets. This was the view from my room in the Radisson on one such evening - I'm just sorry I forgot to turn my lamp off!
I think I'd like to go back to the city as a tourist and take in more of the sights. Maybe I'll go catch a concert, see a few museums or catch a top class premiership match. Or I could go to Anfield.

Less of the cheek!! Let me remind you of a quote from the great Bill Shankly "There are two great teams in Liverpool....Liverpool and Liverpool reserves!"
Shankly also said "If Everton were playing at the bottom of the garden I would pull the curtains!"
Haha! Thought that may get a reaction. I thought about typing Goodison in there but everyone would've just agreed - and how dull would that be?!
