So statistically more people read my Wednesday piece last week
than usually read the Tuesday doodle…. Fascinating crap!! No I have no idea
either whether it was because Wednesday’s bit was concise, true, well written
and so much more interesting or whether more people discovered it or more
people read things on a Wednesday than on a Tuesday!
Anyway thank you, for reading as well but thank you for the
statistics at least it filled up the first paragraph on this Wednesday’s Wilko
Weirdness!
Liverpool welcomes back the cruise ships for what looks to be
the busiest season ever, it’s great to have you visit and spend your money and
I for one am as sure as one can ever be that you will enjoy what you find in
our wonderful city and make the most amazing memories here……. Oh and come back soon!! So
welcome among others Thomson and MSC as newbies to the ‘Liverpool cruise club.’
Next time you come we will have that magnificent building on the
waterfront, one of the ‘Three Graces’, part of the World Heritage Waterfront,
the former head office of the one and only Cunard line as the most lavish of
cruise terminals. This is fantastic news, the building is spectacular inside
and is set to become a huge tourist attraction in its own right. Travel experts
agree that the building could do for cruises what Grand Central station in New York
city did for train travel.
2015 sees the 175th Anniversary of the shipping line
and it is scheduled to see the three Royal beauties in the port together. Also 2015
will be the first time that cruises to Canada are being offered from Liverpool
since the 1970’s.
How wonderfully ironic is it that the founder of Cunard, Samuel Cunard
was in fact from Nova Scotia, Canada and the official address of the old
headquarters and new cruise terminal will be Canada Boulevard!!
Before I finish two more touches of irony in the fascinating
field of travel.
The place to get the cheapest Eurostar train fares to Paris is a
website called Cheapflights! But that’s not all the cheapest flights at the
moment on the same website, incidentally, London Heathrow to Los Angeles is
with, wait for it…… test your geography time….. Air New Zealand!
A lottery win
this week of course would see me on a cruise from Liverpool next year, a
Eurostar ticket or two to Paris and beyond and of course a round trip ticket
with Air New Zealand to LAX. By the way it may come as no surprise to regular
readers that there are two airports on my bucket list! That surely is not
normal is it? Hands up anybody else that has airports on their list…… See told
you, not normal!!!!
Failing that all important lottery win I’ll be back next week,
who knows maybe even Thursday….. Ha ha!!
Incidentally as you might imagine my Pictures of the Week over >>>Here<<< are not weekly either but don't let it stop you seeing them!!
