I was there with my mother and brother. I saw a boy carrying two ice creams, I was more than jealous because I did not have one. Then suddenly he tripped and fell dropping both ice creams on the ground. About 35 years later I was working in the Isle of Man and we started to discuss the first Hovercraft service. One of my colleagues said 'I was there and I bought two ice creams and tripped and fell over!' I said 'Yes ,I saw you fall.'
I remember eating at Sheldrakes a decade or so ago & the amount of obviously abandoned boats in this beautiful landscape was an eyesore. So, this is not a new phenomenon, which begs the question how many were leaking fuel into this environmentally sensitive area back then.
I lived in Eldon Gardens as a young kid... we lived on the top floor. I remember the lifts smelling of 'wee' if they were working, otherwise being hauled up the stairs in my pram by my poor Mum. I got rushed to hospital with Peritonitis. My memories of living there. And I watched the demolition... I was 8 at the time. I laughed because I thought it was my toilet I saw falling...! I haven't lived in any palaces as such since... I was born into this... 😢
my late Nan was born in Birkenhead UK . how these people would have loved to move to the Birkenhead near me in Auckland , New Zealand . you can always spot the UK 'Birkeneadites' here in NZ , they are fascinated by Birkenhead Transport buses , lol :)
Footage of Wirral from the early 80s is very interesting to see these days. Even though it doesn't seem that long ago, a lot of subtle changes happen we don't even realise, even in our everyday localities. It would be great to see video footage and stills of Wirral from this period of recent history. There's lots of stuff on social media from the 60s and earlier, but the 1980s seems to be ignored.
@@thedrumdoctor I will certainly try putting something up and hopefully share so you can watch. I agree it's not that long ago but it certainly is nostalgia and memories of grandparents .
@@lesleyboyce thanks, I will look forward to seeing whatever you can manage to upload. I have no film as such, but I certainly took a lot of pictures during the early 80s as a photography student.
@@thedrumdoctor ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-9RfJBu7kdM8.htmlfeature=shared The guy with the model airplane is at Arrowe Park (I think?). The Teddy bears picnic at Roydon Park (if I remember correctly). And starting at the timestamp 3minutes::37 Roydon miniature steam engine starts . 😊there is also our family moments shared in my video. 😊The little girl &my little brother. ''Street party'' Roydon&Arrowe Parks'' Moreton common Grandad is the camera man.
@@thedrumdoctor I have put a link for my video on my channel. I'd forgot that I had uploaded a raw(as in no editing or sound removed.) Recording of the original. Speaking of photography... My Uncle who is the fella holding the baby he was into his photography and movie making. I can remember photos hanging,developing. Eventually that room became my bedroom .
This Cavern Club is revisionist history. They could have saved the original footprint, but didn't want to spend the money, so they said it was too structurally unsound. What?? But they were able to build something else below a part of it? The entrance and stage aren't even near the original spot, and the new main floor is many feet deeper than the original, but it was built with "the original saved bricks?... so that gives it credibility.. LOL. Don't be fooled.
An excellent interview. Nicholas Goulding is showing all the characteristic common sense of the Reform party. Parliament would be a much better place with many more like him as MP's
Chester citizens vote Reform. Look how are great city has been run down with trade once a thriving shopping center now look at it. Empty. Conservative s and now Labour have waste money , put up council taxes, focused on the universities needs not local needs , the planning department has passed plans to convert a near full community the Garden quarter in to flats that once homed family's since the 1800 s they have turned their back on familys that need houses to accommodate the university its a disgrace, a whole community Ruined . They joined Cheshire West , but the people were not asked. And look now we dont have a say in anything form what I can see. Were ruled by Cheshire West. Considering Chester is the only City were second class citiizens in the council. Chester needs to leave Cheshire West council for the long term. Vote Reform.
⭐🌟⭐🌟VOTE REFORM🌟⭐🌟⭐ Let's come together and spread the word about reform! Share informative content and impactful videos to enlighten everyone. Let's show the UK that reform is the right choice. 💙💙💙💙💙
Labour will turn our country into a wasteland with Net 0 the little industry we have will go, they're giving ethnic minorities promises to get their votes, Starmer has no respect for women's spaces, NHS Nurses have males in their changing room, Labour are career politicians they want power at any cost, they will not work for the majority of working class Brits. Vote Reform.
I could never vote for a racist party. Whilst the failure of Tory’s and Brexit, their austerity which has permeated every facet of life, the bland Labour Party, will soon loose its way. The poverty and decline, walk any high street. The gulf between the rich and the rest in the UK is also stark. Oxfam’s analysis found that the richest 1% of Britons hold more wealth than 70 per cent of Britons, while the four richest Britons have more wealth than 20 million Britons.
Dr Jane Turner for PM! The first politician I’ve ever heard who makes complete sense and offers real solutions to our issues. Such knowledge and intelligent thinking. Fab Jane. 🙏💜🙏
One extra point, massive population growth causing housing shortages, poor health availability and skyrocketing rents…. translates to many, many more poor people, longer queues for food bank and despair spreading like a virus.
If you want change then you have to vote for it….for the love of our country and our customs, irrespective of your place of birth, colour or religion, we must all stand United PLEASE PLEASE VOTE REFORM FOR CHANGE 💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻🙏💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧😊😊🙏🙏🙏🙏
Improved cheaper public transport will better help with pollution etc Make carriages more comfortable open old railway lines and lay new ones. Years ago there were enclosed carriages where you could relax comfortabley and walk the length of long trains far cleaner than producing expensive cars and clogged up roads...
