Found a great shirt (for when I'm not wearing my T-shirt) to bring on the trip. It's sort of 60's Carnaby Street inspired. Can't wait!!! |

I know I'm late to the party, but I'm thinking of making the trip to Liverpool if: 1) I can save up the money (I've already started a fund); 2) I can find a ticket to the show; 3) I can book affordable airfare; AND 4) I can find affordable, NON-scary lodging. If anyone has ideas or suggestions, I would be most appreciative. Btw, Bets, if the shirt is still available, I take a *small*.

Here is what the Liverpool guide said. PM me if interested and when you could go. Liverpool Tour I can take up to 6 people & I can provide you with a 3 hour tour with plenty of time for photos etc or a 4 hour tour(my recommendation)with the most time to walk around take photos etc & which also includes a short sightseeing tour of Liverpool. Price depends on the number of people & the length of the tour,starting at £60 for 1-2 people for a 3 hour tour rising to £110 for 5-6 people for a 4 hour tour. We will visit the major Beatles landmarks in Liverpool,including homes,schools,the church hall where John & Paul first met,The Cavern Club,Penny Lane,Strawberry Field & much more.The tours are very relaxed,very informal,VERY SCOUSE & great fun! I look forward to hearing from you, Best wishes from the 'pool Mark Sounds pretty reasonably priced if we can get 5-6 people to go on a 4 hour tour. -------------------------------------------------------------------- Get your free email address at http://www.merseymail.com/ Reply Forward |

Yeah, a 4 hour tour would be good. You know what happens on those 3 hour tours. You get trapped on a deserted island, and some loony guy who always manages to mess up the rescue efforts. Not to mention a man who can make a hospital out of a coconut but can`t fix the radio. |

What is actually quite useful is some Ambien or Sonata, which will put you to sleep and you will wake up 8 hours later. Helps a lot with getting your sleep which you will need to fight jet lag. Best thing for jet lag -- immediately get on the local time when you get off the plane even if you feel like a zombie. Next day you're good to go. Also stay hydrated on the plane. |

Right now, it sounds like something I'd love to do. Is this the same guy that Jayne knows? She mentioned a friend of hers that will do tours. |

Will do, Jayne. I'm waiting to hear back from Irene on what she's got booked. I'd love to do a tour with the rest of you. I guess you won't be doing any tours, since you live there. In fact, you could probably give tours yourself.
I'm betting that yours would be WAY MORE FUN!!!

I'd get a move on if you want to book anywhere to stay because I suspect they'd be filling up fast. |

I actually made my reservations when I put my name in to get tickets. Changed after I got tickets. Get your passport and then read the Liverpool thread. |

ok i know we are crazy...... but if barb comes.............. well you did see my pm right bev?......... you guys bring the wine, and if both of you are willing to sleep with me- oops i forgot barb has already done that....... and she has slept with you as well- boy that girl gets around.......... and it isnt on her moms birthday...........well now you both have my telephone number, read my pm and we might just be making plans real real soon here i must admit i was warned to stay away from the board if i didnt want to get caught up in the hype and feel the need to HAVE TO GO now if my hubby only read the board, then i wouldnt have to tell him...he could figure it out all by himself cuz he is going to loose his ticket option pretty soon here |

You say you want to save humanity but it`s people that you just can`t stand John came to me in a dream and this is what he said. "I had a vision of a man on a flaming pie, and he told me that Betsy with a B not Lisa with a L is the biggest fan of mine". John trumps 'the boss' ! I WAS ROBBED BY THAT DEVIL WOMAN | |

Jayne didn't go, but I did. It was an out of this world performance, there were performers playing on top of St. Georges Hall, Ringo Starr playing in a specially constructed cargo container with the front cut out so everyone could see, there was a lone guitarist playing on top of St. John's Beacon, a lone guitarist playing on top of Wellington's Column, a lone guitarist playing on top of the Empire Theatre and of course, Ringo Starr singing his new single Liverpool 8 single, accompanied by Dave Stewart and some others. There were fireworks, acrobats dressed as workers and more. Anyone who missed it missed out on a once in a lifetime performance. News story http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/merseyside/7184362.stm I didn’t take any pictures, but I’ve found a few sites with pictures. http://www.bbc.co.uk/liverpool/content/ima...gallery.shtml?1 http://www.flickr.com/photos/liverpool08/ |

ok, I got the call and the wheels are a spinnin' and yes, I've slept with a few of you - who hasn't? Do you know how much alcohol or valium I will require? It's a good thing you are a nurse, Audrey. Can you set up some sort of iv? |

Colin - sounds and looks like a great time! I did read, however, on the pm board from someone who attended that reported a not so good time, as in "very scary" due to the crushing crowd. Did you see any of that? |

I didn't get to go to the concert due to having to work
I did manage to listen to a few bits of it on the radio at work but the young people were kicking off so it was hard to hear
I did get a text from Dani who said she had a very good view but in her words 'a tad cold' lol it is on the TV over here Sunday night so fingers crossed
Great you could go Colin (utters under breath barstool) lol

yep tooo right I am - I mite even go outside the arena tonight and see if can hear Ringo concert
but beer would get warm by then lol
the start time as changed for next weeks concert because (in their words) more Liverpool artists have signed up for the concert therefore for everyone to play they need to bring the concert forward 30 mins (fingers crossed for Paulie all) |

I didn't get any of that, but I was at the back where I got a better view. All those that forced their way to the front, I bet they've all got very bad neck ache. I was going to try to force my way to the front, then I realised that with St. Georges Hall being a very tall building and Ringo Starr singing on the roof I'd be cranking my neck back all the time, so I made my way to the back where I didn't have to crank my neck. P.S. the Walker's never had so many visitors :lol: |

sure you can meet up with us all - the more the merrier as for booking things - if you want to look inside Paul & John's houses and also go on the magical Mystery Tour bus then yes you would need to book in advance - otherwise no need just to travel around and go to places you know I'll help you as much as my knowledge will allow

Like Jayne said the more the merrier. Would love to meet you and hang out. Only booking a few things as money is limitted but I`m sure that with a little bit of shoe leather, I will get to see a lot. I am just so stoked to be there. |

If you're in to art then there's the Walker Art Gallery, I went there last night after the open air concert, I don't think they've had so many visitors in such a short space of time. And it's free. |
