Agh, I had one, but I got rid a couple of years ago. I'm looking to get a proper negative scanner as I have a load of negs I need scanning.

I used to live in Cleveland Gardens in 1987, top floor (13th), number 99, facing Liverpool. These views are pretty much what I had from my balcony. Liverpool lit up at night was spectacular. Wish I had a camera in those days.Sob!

If I remember correctly if you look up Price Street you will see a ice cream factory that once use to be a prefabricated building where I use to have school dinners during my summer holidays. It looked a bit like the buildings in Eldon Street, but larger

Looking through old threads and come across this.
So much changes that you rarely notice until you look at the old pictures.
Great old and new pics Derek, cheers. Pity the flats are knocked down and unable to take some now, haha!
Any more along these lines Derek? wink
