Liverpool is home to the oldest Chinese community in Europe.
The Chinese Arch was gifted to Liverpool by Shanghai and shipped piece by piece and assembled in 2000.
Happy New Year ! The Year of the Fire Horse
Another view of Liverpool, England from across the River Mersey as we pulled into a dock on our ferry from Belfast, Ireland. I assumed that is the "Ferry Cross the Mersey" as made famous by Jerry & the Pacemakers back in 1964-65 (I'm showing my age!).
Under the original train shed at Lime Street 802217, 319366 and 319383 await their next turns as Rob records the scene from platform 3.
The name comes from the Old English lifer, meaning thick or muddy water, and pōl, meaning a pool or creek, and is first recorded around 1190 as Liuerpul. According to the Cambridge Dictionary of English Place-Names, "The original reference was to a pool or tidal creek now filled up into which two streams drained". The adjective Liverpudlian is first recorded in 1833.
Liverpool Pride returned on 25th July 2026 as thousands of people filled the city with colour. After speeches were delivered to the crowds gathered outside Clayton Square, Liverpool, the centrepiece of the weekend was the Pride March, which began on Houghton Street, outside St John's Beacon, before making its way through the city centre via Church Street and Paradise Street, finishing on Lord Street.
Designed to improve accessibility, this year's route removes the need for the road closures used in previous years. For 2026, the march was walking only, with no vehicles or floats, placing the focus on community participation and collective visibility.
The march muster began at 10:30am and the march itself got underway at 11am.
6:46pm according to the clock on the Liver Building. The overcast skies made the city lights come alive even though it was only half an hour after sunset. River Mersey, The Wirral and the Irish Sea in the background.
Eni UK, the company which owns and operates the oil and gas fields in Liverpool Bay, is currently completing some activity on the wells which connect to the oil and gas fields under Liverpool Bay.
This activity includes decommissioning the majority (around 55) of wells as they reach the end of their production life.
Alongside this well decommissioning activity is the need to convert around 11 wells so they can be reused to store carbon dioxide in the reservoirs, as part of the wider HyNet Carbon Capture and Storage project.
This project will allow carbon dioxide emissions from hard to abate industry in the north west of the UK to be stored in depleted gas reservoirs under Liverpool Bay, as part of the UK’s Net Zero target.
If you ever get the chance to visit Liverpool (and I hope you do) you will soon notice the all consuming obsession with the Beatles wherever you go in the city. If anything time has only added to the legend that surrounds this extraordinary band of four musicians that literally changed the face of music in the early 60s and continued to innovate until their breakup 10 years later. Cheeky, funny, and ultra talented the Beatles reigned supreme in the pop music world for all of that time.
These larger than life bronze statues celebrating the fab four are by sculptor Andy Edwards and sit in the area on the River Mersey referred to as Pier Head, very close to the fabulous Royal Liver building. It's such a popular attraction that it's actually quite difficult to get a shot like this because there are hordes of tourists surrounding the artwork from dawn till dusk, all of them waiting their turn to nestle in amongst the statues for their own 'Beatles moment'. And who can blame them!
