Yep, that was a common one, often after they'd been caught stealing in the local shopping centre
The 'Conny', as it were.

I remember when the riots were on last year
a breakaway group 'rioted' in Birkenhead....

looting the only shop they know best... Mcdonalds... classy.

There was the excellent story about those that broke into a McDonalds and started cooking their own stuff
That amused me greatly.

Is there anything in Birkenhead even worth damaging?

a KFC

one of those amusement arcades for adults, where it looks like they sell fine bone China vases in the window...

There's a shock(!)
I just despair that some of the area around Birkenhead is quite nice. (Well, the bits you can see from the M53 anyway)

true
but choose the wrong road, and you will regret it.. have you heard of the wirral waters thingy-me-bop?

Looking to develop Birkenhead docks into a canary wharf esque office space... wouldbe great to redevelop the north end of Birkenhead... would attract some great businesses.
