When I was fit and travelled to Liverpool by boat If the weather was fine I loved the walk from the old landing stage to Lime Street , luggage would be one small case on wheels , although there was usually a bus available and I have never noticed any homeless people or drunks . I don’t know if the new landing stage is a further walk but there were always taxis waiting for the boat to dock. Banker has a fertile imagination perhaps we should not stifle it he gets quite cross.
