Beatle Week was excellent - one of the best ever, in fact!
On our first night, my mate and I were in the Cavern Pub when Julia, John Lennon's sister came in for a few drinks! I asked if she minded if I took her picture and she insisted I get in the photo with her - she was REALLY friendly and I even had a dance with her to a Rolling Stones tribute band (!!!) VERY late on Friday night along with Rob The Scouser, a.k.a Nowhere Man! It was great bumping into Rob again and we shared a good few bevvies in the Cavern pub, club and various bars in the Adelphi hotel!
That Friday I finally got to bed about 5:30am, which is technically Saturday morning!
The following day (Saturday), I met up with John, a.k.a Mr Kite, and when he phoned to say he was outside our hotel that Saturday morning, I was still in bed - MIGHTILY hungover from the night before!!!
I went straight downstairs (clothed!) to meet him with my equally hungover friend, Steve, in tow.
We then made our way to the Cavern Pub for a few beers. And then to The Grapes for a few beers. And then to Wetherspoons pub for.... yeah, you've guessed it .... and we spent a good part of the day righting the World's wrongs over a beer or two! At point I apparently admitted to liking Cook Of The House! LOL
John then had to catch the train back to Manchester United and I went back to bed... seriously!
After 6 days of Beatles and booze I arrived home feeling like shit!! But it was totally worth it!
Here are a couple of pics from the weekend...
