    Too right I do, the Mark Addy is just along the river from there. Top old riverside Boddingtons boozer with a fine line in cheese and pate.




    The QE2 is just a ship.

    Errr bollocks.


    See #18294 for what you ACTUALLY said. Quoted.


    I merely argued that it is indeed a river in its own right. Which it is.

    Hmm, you've suggested a new rival theory to RHC's LHC theory.

    I see a link between the Port of Liverpool's status and that of your football club.

    That, Sir, is your edited reply, for which you have made a slanderous modification, as you can see from my original post #18289, I treated you with respect, and this is how you throw it back in my face!

    Its now a combination of water from the lake district and north wales plus water from local reservoirs here and in manchester that jointly supplies both cities.

    Ha, you've gone back and edited it yourself. Clearing your muddy tracks.


    To sum up, whilst the Irwel is by definition a tributary it is by fact a river. Which you, in the first instance, said it wasn't. <ok>

    I think you imagined that, or that is what you think you saw through the veil of green envious bitter resentment of all things scouse and lovely!

    The passengers on QE2 and other visiting cruise ships love the fine eateries and bars that are close to the waterfront in Liverpool.

    There's a pumped supply from Liverpool into Manchester should there be a drought in its principle source, the lake district. In other words, it'll never have to happen!

    Not the old haunt I remember with fondness but a cracking location for a pint nonetheless.

    I think it's a male ego "our's is bigger than yours" kind of thing going on <ok>


    And obviously ours is much longer and has a far greater girth than theirs :D naturally.

    Used to serve a proper pint of Boddies. Food wise you got a big chunk of cheese or pate of your choice with bread etc. Bloody great.

    It's gone all restauranty now!!







    It's an emergency pipeline though. Haweswater and Thirlmere remain the gravity water supply into Manchester. There is no effective cost to pumping water over great distance, rather than effectively letting it run downhill, unless absolutely neccessary.

    Rivers are a better topic than matter and anti-matter and hadron collisions.
