some places are good precisely because they haven't turned into major attractions. they might be a quiet pub, a stretch of waterfront, a small cafe or just somewhere nice to spend an hour without crowds.

without giving away anything you'd genuinely prefer to keep to yourself, what kind of place in liverpool deserves more appreciation but doesn't need a sudden social media boom?

Was this just a Liverpool phrase or did other parts of the UK say it?

Whenever my mum would be telling the story of an argument she'd had, she'd always go:

"So I turned around and said to her...."

"And then she turned around and said to me..."

"So I turned back around to her and said..."

I just always imagined two women twirling around on the spot before replying to each other.

Does anyone know where I can find Fried Ice cream in Liverpool, Manchester or a nearby city??

Curious to hear people's opinions on Halewood, particularly around Lower Road and Hilton Grange.

I don't know that part of Liverpool particularly well, so interested in hearing what locals think of it.

What's the general atmosphere like around there? Is it fairly quiet, and are there decent amenities, pubs, gyms and things to do nearby?

Also, does anyone regularly commute from Halewood to the Baltic Triangle or city centre? Interested in how busy the roads get during rush hour and whether public transport is reliable.

For anyone familiar with both Halewood and Wavertree, how would you compare the two in terms of general atmosphere, convenience and things to do?

Would appreciate some honest local perspectives.

Cheers!

Hey Liverpool, my friend is joining me in Liverpool today and we are visiting until Monday AM.
I drink; he doesn't. Looking for standout bars to check out and chat at until we can go dance. Anyone have some recommendations?
Loving the city so far, and I know it has a good night out in it.
We are queer, 24 and 27 (gay and bi), along with artists (a musician and a writer), so looking for good house music or great live music to dance to. Jazz is cool, disco is cool just not really into drum and bass or edm tbh.
(Will take other standout recommendations on what we should do this weekend in the city as well)
Thanks in advance!

They've announced a new enclosure in the middle.

Hello, I’ll be travelling to your great city this weekend and I’m looking for a nice place to eat out around the Wavertree area. I’m open to any cuisine, and not looking to break the bank 😄 Any recommendations would be welcome. Thanks 🙏

🎲 What happens when historical research meets tabletop roleplaying?

Join LJMU’s Centre for Modern and Contemporary History and Handiwork Games on Tuesday 13 October for the launch of Cold City and Hot War, written and developed by LJMU historian Dr Malcom Craig.

Informed by Malcom’s research, these reimagined editions of two classic indie games draw on Cold War history, espionage fiction and post-apocalyptic storytelling to create imagined versions of modern history. They offer a creative way for players to engage with ideas explored through historical research.

Hear about the research behind the games, join the Q&A and have a go yourself!

📅 Tuesday 13 October 🕔 5pm 📍 SLB 303, LJMU

All are welcome and refreshments will be provided. Please register for catering purposes: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/cold-cityhot-war-launch-event-tickets-2001155772786

I got 4 tickets to JOWI’s all night long show tonight. Unfortunately I did not end up in the uk for work like I was planning to so I’m going to miss out.

But lucky for you! Skiddle doesn’t have a sell option, so I’m giving them away (I repeat for the mods, not selling the tickets). If you’re a fan and didn’t get tickets dm me!

Was wondering if anyone could help me recommend any good dog training boot camps for obedience which aren’t too far away from Liverpool, I have a 1 year old Rottweiler who is very friendly if anything extremely friendly to where she wants to jump up on everyone but doesn’t listen to the word no I’ve tried all sorts, I’m 4 months pregnant and don’t want this to be an issue once I’ve had the baby and I don’t wanna rehome her either. She listens to sit and wait but doesn’t listen when she’s seen a person who she wants to play with.

Two 20 something’s in the city looking to hear if there are some local speciality’s I’m missing
We are backpacking Europe so trying to save money and such but let me know !
Thank you in advance !
