This is my April page for the BJP. I was inspired to do this one because of a song written and sung by my friend Adam Dwyer. If you go to his site http://www.my space.com/platypus25 you can hear the song in question. "Walk on Cherry Shoes" is one of my favorites.

Bon jour! Parlez-vous anglais?

 Heaven help me, I'm going to Paris and I don't speak French nor understand it! Leaving from St Pancras Station, you carry your own luggage on board. They do have luggage slots at the front and back of each coach, but I'd been hoping to check mine as I had wanted to check out Platform 9 and 3/4 before I headed off. It wasn't meant to be.

Today I went to the second part of The Beatles Story at Pier Head, here they have The British Invasion, The Beatles Hidden Gallery and Fab 4D. Not quite as good as the exhibition yesterday but interesting nonetheless. No I didn't try it but you can have a drum lesson with Ringo Lots of interactive things like that.

They are limited edition prints available for sale, sadly only two of John, but lots of Paul and group shots so no didn't buy one! Next up was Fab4D which is a movie goes for about 15 mins and brilliant. You get splashed with water, tickled by an octopus and bumped around. Lots of fun too! After a nice stroll along the waterfront  I arrived at The Wheel of Liverpool - very impressive, and The Echo Arena, but there is another Hidden gem here  The European Peace Monumen...
