A couple of beers, thank you. Then, an autographed copy of Recording The Beatles. An English version of the Eric Krasker book. Some STar Club Tapes that we haven't heard before. And anything else you think is a good present. Oh, and have fun.

Ditto! Cna't wait for the Eric Krasker book. Blimey, in the years since it came out we could have learnt French!

Really looking forward to this year's Beatle Week. Me too - hoping to get quite a few from the forum going this year!

Just got home - had a fantastic time as usual and sank a few beers in The Cavern Club and Pub before making our way to the new Echo Arena! A REALLY enjoyable weekend

It is a fantastic city - I have absolutely nothing negative to say about it! Like every major city, it has its share of problems, but all of my experiences have been positive so far, and I have visited on at least 20 occasions. Definitely worth a visit, and not just because of the Beatles - there is a great deal more history and heritage to explore!

I gave myself the gift of beer and song in The Cavern! Although my mate Rob da Scouser very kindly gave me some recent local newspapers about Ringo's visit plus a very nice "Liverpool Capital of Culture" lapel badge. I have been trying to persuade Rob da Scouser to join this forum for ages because what he doesn't know about Liverpool isn't worth knowing! I'm hoping he'll be posting here soon as he is our newest member "nowhereman"!

If you would like to PM your postal address Michelle, I'd be happy to mail out some marketing literature, leaflets etc. Beatle and general 'city of' interest. As part of our 2008 European Capital of Culture celebrations I'm looking to be a volunteer tour guide... hopefully The End will back me up that I know at least a little about my hometown!

I was most surprised you even knew the name of the vegetation the statue of the liver bird had in its mouth in St George's Hall!! Rob's a veritable encyclopedia, and he gave us a fascinating and enjoyable tour

Liverpool is a great city but during Beatle Week it becomes something special. Meeting Beatle fans from around the world is a coming together. Great atmosphere! You always make friends there - nice people! oh....sorry....I've been drinking the 'boozy juice' again! Hic!!
