The only photo that I have is this one of when I lured them to the 7th floor of a deserted car park to show them my "Get Carter" impression!

Hello everybody Image

Sorry about the picture delay. We didn't have a lot of computing options in Liverpool but we have arrived at Pete's house and are uploading and trying to get Pete to remember the password to get up on his wireless....

Liverpool was absolutely fantastic and we had a great time. Today was spent at George's house, Ringo's house, exploring more of the Albert Dock and Mersey River, more Matthew Street, Empress Pub, Stuart's grave, and checked out Liverpool FC at Anfield. This afternoon we saw a festival gig at Barnard Castle that Pete was running.

Goodness me...... you're certainly packing a lot in, Alisha!!

Hope the lads are treating you right and not skylarking around like a couple of pre-pubescent schoolboys - which I'm told they tend to do when together!! Image

Do they have the electricity connected in the UK yet Alisha?

At least we know you're being provided with food, or did you have to buy it? Image

This is Peter & Graham's idea of nourishment.

... and the other glass of water was for Graham to take to his room to keep his teeth in overnight! Image

Just got back from an evening of the Hard Rock Cafe in London, sightseeing across the city, Abbey Road, etc. I am quite exhausted (even though I shouldn't be because I didn't do any of the driving...but I'm going to hand over the laptop back to Graham since he has some pictures for upload....)

Sounds & looks like you're having a great time Alisha - love the first pic, (and Graham's line, just what is he implying Pete?) Image
