Liverpool has two cathedrals, so there
And if I had a telescope and a very clear day, I might just see them from my window
What Can You See?
Oh yes, some of the more 'mature' HLers will remember the theme tune to The Liver Birds " ...and if you want a cathedral, we've got one to spare ..."

However, getting close up to it at nighttime, especially around the parts that aren't as lit up, like around the Chapter House, whilst the sky's a deep blue and the sun has all but set, and THEN it's beautiful.

Sorry, it's "those" thoughts again.

Yes, well. It did provide decades of work for the local roofing companiesMotz wrote:And some of the less mature HLers will remember the "Paddy's Wigwam" and just giggle
We can actually see the "proper" cathedral from our back bedroom window. It's just getting into the back bedroom and navigating your way to the window that makes it difficult
But I can't actually see it from where t'computer is. So it don't count.

Aft, a damp garden and a railway embankment (lots of fun at six eh em with a hangover and a twenty car diesal train shoots past). To my right, a damp street of terraced houses. Sympathies, Motz, everything looks worse in the rain...

Looking out across Roche Ferrez, I do believe there is slightly less water in the air than there was an hour ago. Might even have a trip to the Capital Of Culcha

Seriously, what does Capital of Culture mean about from shutting down Quiggins for some arty boll*cks and putting up so many bloody banners that navigation through the city center is nigh on impossible because you can't see the shop names?

@Motz - but when Quiggins takes over Lewises, I won't have so far to walk from the station
