35 bus, although if you are not to freaked out about meeting me that night (which you will actually kind of have to do so you can go to this tribute band) I could meet you at the airport, I'll be heading in that direction anyway and then I could show you where you are going etc. As for the noise of the plane. I'm already very used to it. I've had hours of fun watching them take off and land. Although was a nightmare when the concorde was still flying |

The best would be an Edirol digital recorder but at $500, that might be asking a bit much. :lol: Nah, literally whatever you've got that will record a sound will do. I can can convert and balance it all. Oh, and I don't want to make anyone uncomfortable or anything - it would just be great to hear all of you. Or at least those who want to be heard.

Jayne, you are. We are going to have a fabulous time in Liverpool. I've been there several times before. I've had some great times there, but I already know that this will be the best trip ever. ![]() I saw Paul there in 1990 and that is when I met Lisa (retrollama), with whom I remain friends today. We are going to room together this year in Liddypool. I saw Paul there in 2003 and roomed with someone in Canada with whom I am friends with today. I know I am going to be able to say that after this trip, too. I've been there on my own a few times. I was there in 1993 after seeing Paul at Earls Court in London. Made a lifelong friend on that trip, too, He was the person I went over with for the Concert for George and see at Fests most years. The Beatles world in the US can be a small world. I see people at the Fests and concerts that I have met over the years. Since the advent of the web, it's easier to keep in touch--even if we don't see each other often in person. My Christmas card list is becoming more Beatles friends than family and I like it that way. You are providing us all with something to look forward to!

While we are talking pubs in Liverpool...a friend of my husbands had a few suggestions of where we should go if we get a chance.

I think George (LIPA) or Colin would be the best person to ask about them pubs, When I go to Liverpool I either drink in Wetherspoons (coz its cheap lol :P) or I go to Flannies (Flannigans Apple) in Mathew Street (love my irish pub)Linda you have just reminded me - need to order my new tumble dryer

I had a dream last night that I was there!!! I was riding in the backseat of Jaynes car as she barreled down a wide street. In the car was Andy and 2 of the Beatles. I'm not sure which ones becasue they kept changin their appearance but they looked like the moptop era. Anyway Jayne is zipping in and out of traffic and Lisa appeared and I tried to show her some pictures on my camera but then I was worried about the battery so Jayne pulled up at the Royal Garden Gate hotel. One of the Beatles got out of the car in disguise, he dressed to look like John
. ANyway he quickly got back in the car and we were off and my alarm went off. Dang it was a good dream. Getting so excited!!Sending my RSVP for the meet-up! |

Oh by the way, a little something to tell all you Yanks coming over to Liverpool. This is about money, which of course, is always a concern. If you're like me and haven't been overseas for a while, or just haven't ever been, apparently the best exchange rate for your money is gotten by using ATMs. Apparently travelers checks are not used so much any more, they are more like emergency money. However, and it's the BIG however on using ATMs, is to be wary of what your bank charges for their use. Apparently a lot of banks will charge a foreign use charge on top of your withdrawal which is obviously no good. Of course you could exchange cash at an exchange place but we all know that they will gouge you for the privilege. You can use your credit card, but you have to make sure the bank that issues the credit card doesn't have some kind of foreign use service charge too (which I will definitely find out before I go with my card). So what to do? I looked it up online and found that banks like Bank of America use the Global ATM Alliance, and do not charge for withdrawals from the participating partner, which in their case is Barclays. I also looked it up -- there is at least one Barclays ATM in Liverpool and two in St. Helens. So tomorrow I'm off to my local BOA tomorrow to talk to them in person to confirm this, and if so, I'll be setting up an account with BOA just for Liverpool money. Here is the website I used to find out this info: http://europeforvisitors.com/europe/articl...ersion_fees.htm Looks like it has other good info on it as well.... |

Hey everyone!
Just got back from visiting my family on the east coast and I've had many pages of reading to catch up! I simply can't believe it's less than a month away for this trip!! Yippeeee!!Say all you Americans....have you received any further info on where and when to pick up the concert tickets? I have this fear that I'll get to the will call window and they'll say something like, "sorry, we don't have anything in your name!" I'd die.

We don't have Bank of America here. I am going to get a pre-loaded debit card from AAA that is not tied to my bank account. Yes it will charge me the 3% service fee for foreign transactions and $3 for ATM withdrawals. For Ecce, I got the limit at the ATM each time so I could limit the fees. I ended up with too much cash and took a loss at the airport when I exchanged the money. I will be more careful this time. I'd rather pay the 3% fee than exchange the money back to US dollars at the airport. |

You're right, Dani. The post office do a decent rate of exchange when you're buying dollars, commission free!
