Shades of 9/11 - 5 Years Later - Skyscrapers in Liverpool

Toxic Shock on the wirral

'News Had Just come over, we had Five years, left to cry in'bowie

With the Liverpool Waterfront and Birkenhead Dock's all set for a major new development from Peel Holdings, full of Skyscrapers. It makes you realise we in Liverpool could become more than just a target for tourism. Having an Airport, a Waterfront full of skyscrapers & an oil refinery, all so close to each other. Would make the Liverpool the ideal target for disaffected youths. The recent huge fire at Ellesmere port, looked like a terrorist attack from this angle, the huge cloud of black smoke headed over Chester, probably full of highly toxic fumues, although it looked like an explosion at the oil refinery Stanlow, Ellesmere port, it was just a huge pile of burning rubber???

SIX OF THE BEST - Liverpool Performance 2006

:: Latest Video By Si.x

This summer I was thinking I would like to make a road movie,
"I think I'll Pack it in and Buy a Pick Up..." Not sure where I wanted to take it, but I was hoping Simon(SI or SIX) would come along with guitar, and another guy John. All of us 40+ looking for adventure(i.e FREE).....We could all do with the Holiday...Well I suppose you have to have some Dreams......But reality just keeps crashing all around us and getting in the way.

Anyway, just recorded some Si's new songs "SiX of the Best", a selection of three will be up loaded soon, and will be available for download below ASAP.

LIVERPOOL SNOW

The Winter of THIS CONTENT !!! Discontented even!
A whole roll of film sits idiley, in the camera for almost a year, ideally more pictures would be taken in A YEAR, this post is no place to talk about the events of recent months, but one things for sure it isn't over yet.

Liverpool Sunrise - 2006

A great start to the new Year, with hopefully brighter days just over the horizon. January 2006, and these cold clear winter starts to the day, are ideal for catching the Sun, rising over the City of Liverpool. Perfect Light & Cloud Detail, The Liver buildings and the Cathedral backlight by the huge sun.

Global warming is evident to many people who can see past the end of their nose, the trouble with politicians is their nose is constantly growing. So while I continue to make use of these interesting cloud blankets, I can rest assured my heating bills are set to rise! So please help fund the project by Buying a DVD.

Secret Stash - Gold Hidden in Liverpool

I happend to catch this on film,

A while ago, Gordon Brown sold off Britain's gold reserves (is he allowed to do that?), while gold prices where at an all time low. I didn't hear much about it on the news, In fact I over heard 2 Americans laughing there asses off, and wondered what was so funny....

So as construction is still underway in Liverpool, from the mysterious investments division. While the people who managed to make a killing on all the gold bought cheap, they are finding it difficult to hide the huge reserve.
