Thanks for sharing this with us all. Very interesting, I’ve walked the whole of the wirral way a few times in the last five years, never before that. Also interesting to read all the comments which serve at times as errata. I’d like to think they’re done in the spirit we all hold, that different people have more detailed local knowledge at times, or they’ve thoroughly researched the old route. It’s all good. Fabulous stuff.

Brilliant. Can you possibly do a video about The Wellington pub (The Little Welly as it's locally known) in Poole Rd, Wallasey please? My late father was the licencee from 1970 until 1982 and our family lived upstairs. I believe it opened it's doors initially in 1915. I would be so greatful if you could research the area in general. Anyways, keep up the fascinating videos. 👍👍👍

Have you ever read any of psychic researcher Tom Slemen's writings on Haunted Wirral? [Series in Wirral Globe and books] Whether you believe them or not, the encounters are supposed to have taken place in recognisable places that exist in Wirral, particularly around Barnston and Heswall area. That could make an interesting basis for some location visits, especially as some people's accounts claim to have seen places, as if through a time slip, as they were in the past.

This woman comes over as a very humble, down to earth human being that went through life completely unchanged despite the fame she achieved. The sort of woman that would make a man a wonderful companion in life. Needless to say, she was a brilliant actress on par with all the greats of her time. RIP sweet lady❤!

I saw her as Elizabeth the great as a 13 year old scoolboy i 1971, who was fixated on history and the past, and I truly fell for this remarkable actress. She opened my eyes, and made me love acting, theatre, movies and TV-plays and the TV-series captured my love for english history. She became my favourite british actress, and she stayed my favourite, and she still is.

Miss her terribly. May she never be forgotten.

My father played opposite Glenda Jackson in repetitory theatre in the early 1960s. My mother remembers being totally intimidated by her! 😂 Yes, she was repeatedly told by the director that she was too loud! My mother said she was'a force to be reckoned with', and pretty much all the men present were somewhat fearful of her! My dad was not powerful enough in his size, or masculine force, to be a good match as a leading man for her. Glenda Jackson was also intimidating due to her talent, and was well respected, even then.

Many clubs and societies struggling to find volunteers who are prepared to contribute time and expertise to do all of the behind the scenes work. Covid only made things worse.
@HYUKLDER111 күн бұрын
From 2006, the new safeguarding procedures to protect vulnerable people in voluntary societies and clubs began to bite. People did not want to be insulted by proving who they were and that they were not criminals. Many clubs found difficulty in appointing anyone amongst their committee members who was willing to take on legal responsibility for ensuring there were no fake IDs or criminals amongst their number! This particularly hit clubs that depend on young people joining and staying to ensure sustainability. Scouts have a virtual industry of staff undertaking that work, local clubs do not have such resources. 🙁 The thing is that Parliament imposed the law onto every club but failed to provide public resources to fund the work it created.
