Hello hello,
I want to tell you that today the girls were once again day trippers, each with a ticket to ride to Liverpool where they went on a magical mystery tour of the city, going here there and everywhere. Every little thing about their mornig was filled with rain. With a little help from my friends I got to see the famous cavern club, and thought I might get to check out an octopus's garden at underwater street but found you can't do that (at least it's frowned upon if you're not a little child). Two of us (Lauren and Cari) wandered the shops including the Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds Cafe, while Emma tried and failed to find a bathroom (or even it's window). With a twist and shout it was off to the piers and a photo gallery chronicling a day in the life of the fab four. The girls decided they'd follow the sun which had finally appeared and had a picnic on the sea wall where they watched a ferry cross the Mersey. They then took the long and winding road to Albert docks where they bought some fudge and checked out all sorts of other old fashioned goodies including truffles (chocolate, not savoy). They then headed into the Beatles Story exhibit where they saw the movie prop of Elanor Rigby's grave, a replica of the yellow submarine, and learned all about the history of the group and the musical revolution that they started. They then marched (sans meanies) to the Liverpool Museum where they were thrown helter skelter by the massive crowd and had to run for their lives to escape the chaos without actually seeing anything inside. To get back across the universe they hopped a train, and then spent a quiet evening with Nan. Tomorrow it's off to Sherwood Forest and Robin Hood adventures.
Hello goodbye,
Cheers,
Tim
P.S. I love you
P.P.S. Can you spot the 30 Beatles song references in this blog (plus the one non Beatles song)?

Hello Hello (working title of "hello goodbye")
Mersey Beatles ("official" cover band)
That should be 30, if all mine are right!
I have been waiting for someone to identify "Ferry Cross the Mersey" as the non-Beatle song. Guess it's time to make the post myself!
