      Not neccesarily Clayton Square as such, I meant more St. Johns Market. Compared to the other places now it's a bit outdated I think.

      Yeah, I was at St. Johns Market. Well, for a person not coming from England or Liverpool, I'd be like 'Wow, what a beautiful place'. ;)

      If you went there, and then say went to Liverpool One, or the Met Quarter you wouldn't be saying that!

      ;D, well , Liverpool One > St. John's Market.

      It's just I stayed really close to St.John's, just beside to be exact.
      Well, I still like the city of Liverpool only that... around Anfield looks weird :/

      I can relate to that, the first time I went to Anfield I was bemused.

      Driving through a really scruffy area and then right in front of you is this beautiful stadium. Weird.

      (Sorry if anybody lives around there, I don't think anybody does though).

      Anfield (the area) is a dump mate, like many parts of Liverpool because our delightful council couldn't care less about those areas if they're not in the city centre. Speaking as a Scouser who has lived me entire life within 10 minutes of town, I think it's quite possibly the worst place on earth. Overcrowded with arl grannies who don't move, prams, umbrellas, girls who choke you with their perfume and it's just horrible.

      I'm sure for people from outside the city it does look nice but I know plenty of Scousers who hate the place.

      I guess. Probably most stadiums tend to be away from the city centre, don't they?

      Must be incredible for the residents around Anfield. All crap but woah, the stadium!

      Even though it's such a bad place to be living it always makes me smile walking through the area towards the ground.

      I love it how people leave their doors open to see an unbelievable amount of memorabilia covering the house walls.

      Has anyone got a picture of the area where Liverpool One is before Liverpool One was built?

      There's lots of lovely places in Liverpool. Personally, I've been to quite a few different city centres and I think Liverpool is boss. Loads of character about it.

      Anyway, less chatting and more pics I reckon!!

      Has anyone got a picture of the area where Liverpool One is before Liverpool One was built?

      Sure there will be some posted soon mate.

      Nice one HR. See if you can dig up the West Derby Village ones from years ago. I'm sure you've seen them. I couldn't find them yesterday. Looked for ages. I also wanted one of St. John's Tower being built, but alas I couldn't find one :(

      Kenny lined up a great big list of pics last night, but then realised all the links were the same as he'd had to do 'Copy Image Location' because Safari wouldn't give him the properties option when he right-clicked. We were sick. There was some boss ones aswell. He's going to try again later though hopefully.

      Actually, it's not happening. Here's the link if anyone wants to browse. Definitely worth having a look.

      The city hasn't half changed even within the space of 10-15 years. Really amazing to see how it has come on.

      Look at this one Billy comparing where the Women's Hospital is now.

      Upper Parliament Street.

      Anybody else think that some of the pictues are breath taking to look at and wish that they could of been around to see things like the over head railway?

      Here is a picture of Speke Hall in all it's glory. I am from Speke and thought that this place deserves a mention.
