When I worked for the corpy as a flagger me and my labourer use to push a hand cart around the streets of Liverpool with all our tools in it. We would have to find somewhere safe to leave it overnight which wasn’t easy. No effin horses for us.

It wasn’t a good look was it. My mates used to get the piss taken out them every time they pushed that cart about.

…ha, ha. I suspect I’ve posted that picture previously.

it was an island at the top of my old street, I remember it so well. It housed public toilets and a taxi rank. Hippodrome cinema and Grant Gardens opposite (previously the Necropolis cemetery).

Went to the Saturday morning matinées many a time. Yo yo competititions included. Ace

….you must’ve been local too. Saturdays were always school footy and Everton, so wasn’t a regular watching Roy Rodgers & Zorro. I do recall seeing Dr No on ’Hippy’, must’ve been early ‘60s (came out 1962).

Wow, never seen that view before. I started work at 17 in that ‘Liverpool Savings Bank’ which became TSB. Brilliant picture.

No vape shops, or Turkish barbers.

Those were the days.

I think they should be blue ...

Definitely. Birkenhead buses were blue, Wallasey's were yellow and Liverpool green.

….my mum cleaned the pub on the opposite corner. I was raised in Cobden St which was the other side of the traffic island.

We used to get our lunch from the pub most days, they let us bring it back to the bank and we took the plates and glasses back later. Great memories
