Decided to fly my beloved Autocrat from Isle of Man to Liverpool for a Scouse lunch. The 35 mph headwind made the flight pure torture. By the time I arrived at Liverpool the restaurant had stopped serving lunch. I explained why I was late to the restaurant owner. He just smiled and said "We'll never turn you away."

" He just smiled and said "We'll never turn you away." Is Gerry Marsden, MBE running a restaurant in Liverpool now, or did you take the ferry to Birkenhead?

In my fertile imagination he's serving up bowls of Scouse in a Liverpool restaurant. In reality I'm sure Gerry would be much happier riding the ferry. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-VlVP4L3IwI

Hmmm,
As a scouser something I can see that something has gone very seriously wrong about the position of the 3 Graces, unless someone has re-routed the river Mersey

Well if he does ride the ferry, he will hear 'Ferry Across the Mersey' ad infinitum over the P.A. system. Thanks for the video link Brian, as a teen in the sixties I loved all the British Invasion music.FlyTexas wrote: ↑05 Apr 2018, 02:06In my fertile imagination he's serving up bowls of Scouse in a Liverpool restaurant.
