      So What's On?

      Mods: Please move this post if required as I can't find a suitable board for this @ 8.25 on a Sunday morning ;)

      So me and my beautiful wife will be in the wonderful city of Liverpool for a long weekend starting 30th July as my birthday treat.  Apparently Emma (yorkie) has organised a surprise "event" for me in the city that has something to do with footy (if you have an idea what this may be please keep stum as I'm not allowed to ask ;);D, however in between doing this and going to Carra's restaurant on the Friday night we have little other planned. 

      That's where you guys come into the mix, we are ideally looking for something to do on the 1st August (Saturday night) possibly a comedy club, theatre show etc or maybe a dinner cruise on the Mersey (I'm sure that's not just a thing down here) any idea's will be greatly appreciated.

      Cheers guys!
