[2TONEVTS]

Me and a few mates are goin up to liverpool on friday for a few days for a 21st birthday mash up. just wonderin if anyones done the journey on here n what sorta time it took. all the aa, rac, google maps etc are lookin around 4 n half hours n just wondered how true they were. plus best places in liverpool to go out to???

[Graeme]

[bexster82]

4hrs - sounds bout right - my dad goes up there see his m8 often

[2TONEVTS]

trains 80 quid each, plus catamaran cost aswell, for us 4 to get up there by car, lookin at 120 quid, where as train is more like 360.

[Dez]

yea train is a rip off, 4 hours or so sounds bout right

[bexster82]

its not a bad drive tbh :)

[2TONEVTS]

lookin forward to it, the roads on the island are in such a bad state, nice to get on decent roads, and actually on motorways!!!

[MrHouston]

Where you planning on going in Liverpool mate?

[2TONEVTS]

dunno never been before?? anyone know any decent places???

[phillyh]

4-5 hours is on a good day, went down to sotton a few years back for a footie match, took 7 hours on the way back :(

Places to go in liverpool clubbing wise;

Mood
Corova
Heebie Jeebies
Lagos
Krazyhouse

just places in and around concert square.
Liverpool is one of the countries best nights out now :p

[2TONEVTS]

yea thats why mate wants to have his 21st there. was a bit skeptical but have to wait n see. cheers for the ideas mate

[phillyh]

No probs mate, you wont be dissapointed though!
REALLY safe aswell:y:

[2TONEVTS]

that a sarcastic comment phillyh?

[phillyh]

Nah, its very well policed and everyones out for a good time

:y:

[2TONEVTS]

good good

[MrHouston]

Just don't go the Pleasure Rooms and you'll have a good night out :oops:

I'd give Matthew Street a good go as well, a few nice little places down there, but as Phil said, Concert Square is the place where it's happening

[Cunny16v]

Yeah concert square is for mostly young people clubbing, and concert square has a load of pubs aswell as clubs but mainly pubs which are still good. If you want good music head to 'Barbars' too! and 'walkabout' ;) The office has good music on 'cos it usually has decent dj's on from liverpool so the music is all good! the only problem there is a lack of choice when it comes to beer!

Always end up havin a good night out in liverpool though no matter where yer go! :D

[2TONEVTS]

good good, well hopefully itll be worth the drive up there
