It is a drive-on-the-left country.

Although I did consider whether it was a breach of the rules to flip an image.

Yes, that's it. Amusement was gained simply because it was next to a place I'm sure many of us have been, but something possibly few have entered, or even registered when driving past.

Woody's turn to park one on the thread.

I spent Christmas Day 2020 in there as it was set up as the PCR testing site that everyone needed to use air travel at the time, put our turkey in the oven, drove there , spent a couple of hours getting tested, went home and had Christmas Dinner.

Give me a bit of time to find a new challenge, still working including an 0430 start Christmas morning.

The Vines pub, Lime St, Liverpool.

Worked in Liverpool a few years ago and lived in Alexandra Tower, on the river frontage, but never managed to visit said pub. Went to a lot of others though!

Thank you Woody.

How about a church? But maybe not where you would expect to see one.
