Liverpool One
 

on Tuesday i decided to TRY and get into the christmas spirit and along with Reece and Ciara, took a trip to Liverpool...

when we arrived at Lime Street Station we followed the signs to LIVERPOOL ONE, i expected it to be a wonderful place, maybe something on the lines of The Trafford Centre....i was soooooooo wrong


its crap.....

all it is, is a few streets of shops...and thats it
i was most disapointed


anyone else been?

Re: Liverpool One
 

you might enjoy the shops...if you just like shops, i was expecting more though

Re: Liverpool One
 

City centers have a habit of containing shops and such like places. A bit of a bore really.:confused::confused:

Re: Liverpool One
 

Liverpool, well miself only ever think about two things when it comes to Liveepool, that Footy and Music:D

Re: Liverpool One
 

I find shopping just downright boring these days, no matter where you travel to its just the exact same shops, just either bigger or smaller! Not too many town centres with much individual character any more i'm afraid.

Re: Liverpool One
 

sorry you were disappionted, we went to the Albert dock and Cavern club, well interesting.

Re: Liverpool One
 

Like what? Its a shopping centre. Its got shops.

Re: Liverpool One
 

Ya but to look at the telly ads you'd think it was the Metropolis;)

Re: Liverpool One
 

That might be quite a novelty by the end of the year if things keep going the way they are!!;)

Re: Liverpool One
 

Hull is actually quite good for shopping. It's not really trafford center ;) But I know people who prefer it to the likes of Leeds.

Re: Liverpool One
 

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 They have now been replaced by a much enlarged Mall, which is very nice in its way, leaving the main shopping streets lined with empty shops and ever-increasing clubs and bars.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.

Re: Liverpool One
 

Aint seen the ads if im honest.

Re: Liverpool One
 

There is also the Lowery outlet centre which again is all shops and cafes they have a cadbury's shop there but not to far away is the war museum:D

Re: Liverpool One
 

didn't know there was a lowry in liverpool? or have the scousers nicked manchesters?:D

Re: Liverpool One
 

I think it was the Lowry center my brother will know he took me
the war museum is good and its free to go round well worth a visit
unless i am getting mixed up with manchester will get me brother to post:D

Re: Liverpool One
 

It's neither Manchester or Liverpool, it's in Salford Quays. :)

If you are from Salford they defend their independence from Manchester with great vigour, a bit like those on here from Ossie who swear they are not part of Accrington :D

Re: Liverpool One
 

Why are you still on here lancsdave and not on that freezing cold market:D

Re: Liverpool One
 

I'm off this week to have an operation to have my looks improved. :D

( That should set up a few of the wise guys on here :p )

Re: Liverpool One
 

Oh Major surgery then:p good luck

Re: Liverpool One
 

Bloody hell dave, congrates mate didn't know you'd won the Jackpot on the lottery:D

Re: Liverpool One
 

When I saw you and Mel in the park in July, I remarked that you were quite 'dishy' - don't spoil it

Re: Liverpool One
 

Flattery will get you everywhere Margaret, well it'll at least get you a T shirt:D

Re: Liverpool One
 

I always speak the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth
and it sometimes it has got me in lumber

Re: Liverpool One
 

nah yer not that bad, ya don't even resemble a dingle.:D

Re: Liverpool One
 

Must have had the sixth finger removed before moving to Accy then cashy:D:rolleyes:

Re: Liverpool One
 

Seems like you have that of pat Margaret:D

Re: Liverpool One
 

... but I never say 'so help me god' ...... I manage without help

Re: Liverpool One
 

aw shucks I'm blushing now :o

Re: Liverpool One
 

think you got mixed up with manchester mick hehe

Re: Liverpool One
 

Mixing up the Lowry with the Tate, perhaps. The Albert Dock's worth a visit too.

Re: Liverpool One
 

Didn't go as well as planned and now applying for the part of scarface next time there's a remake :(

Re: Liverpool One
 

Scars can enhance the 'rugged man' look.
Just dont have a nose job like Tom Jones did - he has that dreadful 'little piggy 'look

Re: Liverpool One
 

Lancaster is rubbish for shops but it has some little treasures here and there and the market is really nice and very multi-cultural too. The best thing is probably the cafés we have here though.

Sadly we now have a starbucks :( eurgh.

Re: Liverpool One
 

Apparently Lancaster has one of the UK's best Chippys but cant recall its name, i think it was voted best one last year or maybe 2007!

Best Regards - Taggy

Re: Liverpool One
 

There is a great cafe down near the market think its "Dibbles" makes a great cup of tea nice and strong too

Re: Liverpool One
 

If I remember rightly Lancaster is one of the hardest place to make deliveries in the country, you can usually see where you want to go, but getting there is another matter, by road that is:rolleyes:
