What made you choose Liverpool for a weekend away?

( Fucking hell Jeff I am not a robot, Tue 3 Dec 2013, 20:48, Reply)

We did it a couple of years ago
and had a great time. There's some good shopping in the 'pool.

I don't know if it was my age, my extra weight, or my arthritis, but this year I really struggled doing three full days of walking. By the time we got back to our hotel at night, I didn't even have the energy to go prop up the bar :-(

Did you stay somewhere nice or somewhere merely 'functional'?

( Fucking hell Jeff I am not a robot, Tue 3 Dec 2013, 20:57, Reply)

Mostly 'functional'
but not 'youth hostel'. It was more 'mid range boutique'. 2nd floor, no lift. *yoiks*

Thieving fucking scouse gits probably nicked the lift.

I'm just impressed my suitcase still had wheels at the end of the weekend.

Did where you stayed, ate, etc. make you pay for everything in advance? Most reasonable* places do up there due to the amount of people fucking off without paying.
* I know there are very few places in Liverpool that achieve such a high standard.

No, not at all.
They asked us to settle up the night before we left, because they were usually so busy in the mornings.

That's the reason they gave you...

Well, we do look pretty shifty.

( b3th Not shit. Not mod., Tue 3 Dec 2013, 21:17, Reply)

shifty

Hefty

I'd like to say I'm sorry about that strikethrough, but, in all honesty, I'm not.

Nah, that's just me.
My mum is a skinny bitch.

Ah. Thought you went with the old man.

( Fucking hell Jeff I am not a robot, Tue 3 Dec 2013, 21:24, Reply)

He doesn't do shopping.
Or walking.
This was strictly a girls' weekend. The old lady, her best mate, and me.

Good job his carer works weekends eh?

( Fucking hell Jeff I am not a robot, Tue 3 Dec 2013, 21:30, Reply)

The Swan Inn is a good city centre boozer.
Rock pub, real ales and Old Rosie scrumpy. Belting place.

It's Liverpool. No thanks.

( Fucking hell Jeff I am not a robot, Tue 3 Dec 2013, 21:20, Reply)

We passed one boozer that was doing £1.98 pints up till 6pm.
And they say there's a problem with alcohol up north.
( b3th Not shit. Not mod., Tue 3 Dec 2013, 21:21, Reply)

In my local it's £4.10 for a standard pint. Somewhere premium is nearly a fiver.

( Fucking hell Jeff I am not a robot, Tue 3 Dec 2013, 21:25, Reply)

Anyone would think you lived in London...

( b3th Not shit. Not mod., Tue 3 Dec 2013, 21:31, Reply)

…where paying a fiver a pint doesn't mark you out as the sort of prick who….well, would willingly pay a fiver for a pint.

House bitter at my local is 2quid. Most are 2, 40-2.80.

(Pookie Bear had some very shiny foez, Tue 3 Dec 2013, 21:51, Reply)

It's about 3.70 - 4 quid round here.
I remember when I was at uni, most union election campaigns were run on a platform of 'a pound a pint'...
( b3th Not shit. Not mod., Tue 3 Dec 2013, 21:52, Reply)

£3 a pint here
When are you over here anyway?

My local £3.20/pint for standard lager, £4.00 for 'premium'
My usual haunt £2.44 for lager but £1.90 on Mondays
