Well, we definitely had a LORRA LORRA LAUGHS on the Liverpool trip. Following a brief flight from Belfast International Airport, we arrived in Liverpool late morning and the coach took us from John Lennon airport to our hotel in the centre of Liverpool. As our rooms were not ready yet for check in, we left our luggage at the hotel and strolled into the city centre to explore over the next couple of days the shops, restaurants, Albert Docks, the Cavern Club, Anfield stadium, hop on/hop off bus tour, Fab Four Beatles taxi tour and the Magical Mystery Beatles Bus tour. Everyone had plenty of time to do as they pleased and see the sights or just relax with a cup of tea (or something stronger 😊) in the beautiful sunshine.
On the second night our coach collected us at our hotel and took us to the Floral Pavilion Theatre in New Brighton, just about 25 minutes from our hotel. There we were treated to a fantastic musical show – Lipstick on Your Collar. Well done everyone for doing the twist in the aisles …. there were a few sore legs in the morning. It was a brilliant evening and thoroughly enjoyed by everyone.
All in all, it was a brilliant weekend in a great city – full of fun – no one can deny that the scousers aren’t friendly.
Lovely to see familiar faces and also to see new faces. We should also mention that some clients come without a companion and they are made to feel so welcome within the groups and are never left to feel lonely. So, if you haven’t been on one of our PST trips before and are wary about coming on your own – don’t hesitate – put your name down to come along... you won’t regret it. After all the Prison Service Trust is a FAMILY…
‘Til next time
