Hi Gjil,

I would be happy to help Cal if she needs any   :)  Just give us a shout if you need anything Cal   :)

I'm not sure where Katie  is up to because she hasn't been on here for a while.   :-\

We are looking forward to seeing you and Goose again. I'm getting excited now   ;D

Hi all

I quite agree that we should stay in close proximity. I think I was being a bit adventurous thinking we could do the Cathedral as well.. and yes it is one helluva hike up there. I love my home city and I wanted people to see as much as they could but it would be so tiring. (I did a photo walk in the summer from the cathedral down through Bold Street and Liverpool 1 and onto the Albert Dock it  was exhausting)
The reason I stepped in was because I was fearful that folk had booked to come to Liverpool and nothing was arranged... 

Redkop you have posted some excellent ideas. Maybe we could do the Maritime Museum and Ferry in the morning (the ferries run every hour on the hour and the round trip takes about 50 minutes if we don't hop off over  the water) and then grab a light lunch around that area. Afterwards stroll up to St. Georges Hall in the afternoon, do some photo opportunities outside the Walker and the Museum & other fabulous buildings enroute..... then  up to the Cavern area with an early evening meal at the Philharmonic before those who are going ghost hunting leave...... ??
Unfortunately I won't be able to do the Ghosty thing as I will need to get back early evening.

Do we know exactly how many people are coming on the 24th? Maybe everyone who is coming along could pm me or Redkop.

What does everyone think?
