Lucy In The Sky With Diamonds

I don't think it'll take you more than a second to work out where young Eric is at the moment ......

...... but if you can't guess, then he's only on a whistle stop visit to Liverpool!  Well, when your offered a free trip and a show to the great city, it would be rude to say no.

So, first port of call was to pay homage to the Fab Four in Mathew Street, where poor Eric had to admit to being a trifle concerned by what appeared to be John Lennon's unfeasibly large head, as depicted in his statue, musical genius or not, he mused, it seemed to be a lot of brains to carry around. Lu said it was most likely artistic license and in real life, no doubt, Mr Lennon would have been more aesthetically proportioned??!!

Needless to say, one or two souvenirs of their visit were considered and duly purchased .....

..... and where, in such monumentally, historic climes a toe was tapped, a Beatles tune or two hummed and a coffee quaffed, both wishing they'd not been such strangers to the phenomena, both having been born way after the Beatles were no more .....

...... although Lu had managed to see Mr McCartney in concert, in real life, last year, in Manchester to make a few memories of her own, happy days.  

Eric's most favouritist Beatles song? "Lucy In The Sky With Diamonds", naturally,  because as soon as our Lu was born, she opened her huge eyes straight away to look all around her and her dad (Andy) instantly said "Lucy in the sky with diamonds, the girl with kaleidoscope eyes" ......... oooooo I've gone a bit emotional!
