Nik and Laura went to Liverpool on Saturday and, amongst other things, had a look at Liverpool 1. She said it was like a typical High St of 20 years ago, but on 2 levels, and she liked it. It wouldn't appeal to me as I don't enjoy shopping.

From what she said it sounded much like Warrington used to be, when most of the shops and stores were on 3 streets in the town centre. They have now been replaced by a much enlarged Mall, which is very nice in its way, leaving the main shopping streets lined with empty shops and ever-increasing clubs and bars.

I don't think Liverpool 1 is going to compete with the Trafford Centre but, at least, there's a lot more to see and do in Liverpool. They had a brilliant day out, including the Dr Who exhibition and even a ride on the ferry to Wallasey and back.
