Both seem like pretty cool, fixed up modern cities. The train is the only option here. Is it a decent service? So far as I'm aware. I've driven down the two times I've been there. If you pick Manchester, it's well easy by train. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Moomintroll Posted March 3, 2020 Share Posted March 3, 2020 Manchester is easier to get to, but if it is pishing doon, and it will be, then there is more to do in Liverpool over Easter. There is an Irn Bru Carnival style thing at the Exhibition Centre which is next to the Albert Dock area with loads going on there. Use that as a starting point & you won't go far wrong. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye, but they've all got that fūcking accent and he'll be driven insane by it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bairnardo Posted March 4, 2020 Share Posted March 4, 2020 Pork absolutely does not rhyme with fork**Unless you say fork wrongly. Either way if they rhyme you are saying one of them wrongly and deserve serious jail time. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes we can, it is pronounced 'bunk' the same way as you would pronounce 'punk' 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
