The Uko! =D Because everyone who goes to Sallie's house must have a photo in the pimp hat. Mandatory X)


Last night at the restaurant we went to =D The girl on the left is Sallie's cousin Becky (or Beckie, I forget how she has it spelt). Look how short Uko is! XD I think I was talking there. That's an odd expression ^^;

Then that night we stayed at Sallie's sister's house, cos she's on honeymoon~ in Portugal and kindly let us have the house for the night so we didn't have to blow up a matress to sleep on =D And as I said, we watched Alan Davies' stand up show on video. I now have to make icons with reference to that show. So, so much love XDDDDD

"At the Olympics, there's always this bit of a grudge they have looking at their flag, cos it's got a little Union Jack in the top corner there. That's why they want to be a republic, cos they want to change their flag! Dunno what to. It should be a big pink one with 'OZ' written on it in big letters, and with a little hole cut out of the corner where a melanoma's been cut out."

It's great that Aussies can laugh at themselves XDDDDDDD I was half-dead at that point. So, so much love! XDDD


Let me take you down, ’cause I’m going to strawberry fields.
Nothing is real and nothing to get hungabout.
Strawberry fields forever.


...only not, because this is the real~ Strawberry Fields. They've actually ripped down the building now, so the gate's all that's left, but there you go =D


John Lennon's house =D


And again, in case it's impossible to read the other photo what the plaque says.


And again~


And~ with an Uko and a 'narti outside it =D


And Gem said we Had to go to Hale, so to Hale we went, and lo, there were thatched cottages (which are more like country estates than cottages), and there was much aww~ing at the cuteness of it all.


At the risk of sounding like a broken record, it's so cute and English!


These places are bloody expensive tho, as in, in excess of a million pounds. So when we've all made our millions, we're going to go live in Hale X3


So cyoot~!


One, two, three, aww~


In penny lane there is a barber showing photographs
Of every head he's had the pleasure to know.
And all the people that come and go
Stop and say hello.

Only there's not anymore, aww. Also, that's one of the two tops Sallie's mum got me =D


Penny lane is in my ears and in my eyes.
There beneath the blue suburban skies
I sit, and meanwhile back

In penny lane there is a fireman with an hourglass
And in his pocket is a portrait of the queen.
He likes to keep his fire engine clean,
It's a clean machine.

Surprisingly, the sky was actually blue. Mostly. Just not in that photo. Go figure. Liverpool decided to turn itself on for us, yay! Quite a lovely day, really, maybe 27-ish. Perfic *^^* Course, the Pommies were all saying it was a bit warm, but I thought it was lovely X3


The cathedral, which we didn't have time to go into before the train left, unfortunately, but we'll go in there next time ^^ Don't know if there are any Beatles lyrics on that one. Let me know XD;


And the Catholic cathedral, which Sallie calls Padi's Wigwam. It looks like a factory from the train Oo

So there you go =D Fun time had by all ^^ And! Sallie says she's been improving so much that I can prolly spend more than the originally planned ten days with her at the end of my trip! Cos we still have a lotta stuff to do in Liverpool, too much to fit into ten days, so yes. Yay~ for Sallie! *glomps her* So proud of you~ *^^*

And then tonight

Also! We're going to London on Tuesday. Was going to be Monday, but that's now when Uko's dad will be appearing again to give her money, so Tuesday we go. Yay! London!
