Liverpool-born R. Peter has also been a teacher, a Crown Prosecutor and featured as one of the subjects in the famous “Seven Up” series of ITV documentaries. He'll be in conversation about his novel with Smithdown Litfest Director Ian Skillicorn. This will be followed by an audience Q&A and then R. Peter will entertain the audience with an unplugged session of his music.
About “Valediction Records” by R. Peter Davies
For over forty years, former band members of Generation 27, a briefly successful band in the late seventies, have been haunted by the shadows of the group’s collapse. Stephen is weighed down by guilt, Philip blames everyone else for his fall from stardom, while Martin battles addiction and illness. Only when strangely familiar figures emerge from those shadows is each of them forced to confront their loss and regret. The past really is a foreign country, but how will the three friends navigate their way from there to the future?
There will be a bar, and a chance to buy signed copies of R. Peter's book and music.
Doors/bar opens: 6.30pm
In conversation with R. Peter Davies: 7.00pm
Interval: 7.30pm
Audience Q&A: 7.45pm
R. Peter Davies Unplugged: 8.10pm - 8.40pm

Anfield

Elbik

Anfield has always been a nice stadium. The Kop driving the atmosphere into the other stands. Now they two stands have been extended I have been worried that the atmosphere might be lost, particularly when seared in the upper tiers but having experienced several seat locations I have to say that it&#39;s as good as ever. Probably one of the good stadiums in Europe.The exterior has been vastly improved over the years too , We did the stadium tour and it was very good. Audio tour on every corner. 😃

Nice exhibition, I used to know only the song, now I know the story. Chinese introduction, very good, I don&#39;t know many details, I found the answer here, it is worth going to the bar again, and then comparing it with here, it is very interesting.

It is a very wonderful tourist attractions with much to see around like exhibits!

Liverpool Cathedral

Yushanshan

The exterior of this church is unremarkable. After entering it, it will really be amazing. It feels very beautiful as soon as you enter. It is super big. It is recommended to come on Sunday. There will be a choir every Sunday. You can pray with the locals and feel the atmosphere.

This museum did not understand at the beginning. It was his son who insisted on going. It rained and took a taxi. It was indeed full of harvests. The gods in it returned to the special exhibition. They were all ancient Roman artifacts. They were statues from Zeus to the next in ancient Greece. You can see the complete Venus. There is also the cool Athena 😄 background music is the ancient Roman era people held banquets, and for this reason, they also specially created a god. There is a painting by Zhang Rubens Studio that is teasing. You can take a closer look. The ancient Egyptian pavilion of the museum makes my son full of praise. Compared with the British Museum&#39;s cloth exhibition, it is reasonably arranged, clearly described and clearly displayed! In my layman&#39;s eyes, anyway, it is not crowded in the British Museum, and I don&#39;t see much. I only know when I come to Liverpool. The study of ancient Egyptian civilization here is not lost to the British Museum! If you have interested friends, you can come and have a good look. The World Museum is indeed worthy of its name. It has a cultural relics exhibition hall around the world. It is the first time to see Eskimo related! From clothes to supplies, it is an eye-opener. There are also Mayans, Indians, and not to the Americas, and they have also seen it. The African part is displayed according to the national area, and the exhibits are very rich. There is also a reflection on colonial Africa in the year, and the conscience of cultural people is mentioned. The aquarium is very fun. Some are local characteristics of Liverpool, which are different from the Pacific Ocean we are familiar with. This museum is a good place to take the baby, many children play in it, the space inside is large, and they are not too worried about encountering it. The staff was very helpful 👍 when we left, called Uber, because the museum door did not allow parking, and it rained heavily outside, so we consulted the location of the road near the staff. He specially took out a nearby map for us and introduced the situation in detail. Thanks 🙏 In fact, next to the museum is St. John&#39;s Garden. Unfortunately, it rained heavily and there was no chance to walk. Going further, you can see the Shankly Hotel. The son said that this should be a must-check place for Liverpool fans.
