A personal website designed to help both the visitor to Liverpool, and those residents who want further information

about this wonderful city. This is a companion to my wife's site about Nice in the south of France - allaboutnice.com.
The history of Liverpool
from prehistoric times
is covered and details
of transport to, from and
around is aided by links
to many sites.
I hope to add many
photographs of the
spectacular and the
mundane. The city is
progressing at
breakneck speed after
forty years of decline
after the second world
war.

I am a General Practitioner who has lived and worked in Liverpool for 32 years.
Apart from my daytime work I have driven round the city at night visiting patients of
every type and have come to love the fierce, fearless, obstinate,at times irritating
but above all friendly and sensitive people who live here.
Beware those who make insensitive remarks as Boris Johnson and the Sun
Newspaper have famously discovered.
Liverpool people are passionate and this is shown in the support for the two
football teams. If the grounds were big enough there would be joint gates of
100,000, not bad for a city of 450,000 souls.

The sights, including
much of the dramatic
architecture and
restaurants in which to
break your journey around
this fascinating city, are
listed.
The polyglot community
has led to a
mouth-watering variety of
restaurants, in my opinion
Liverpool can hold its own
with almost any other city
when it comes to eating
out.

Web sites grow in a circle

more work than the last.

wooden frame and
it is magnificent with
vibrant colours.Four
birds are evident,
two Liver birds, a
seagull and a
cormorant that has
just dived under the
water!
I can supply a
16x24 inch
