Back to Liverpool 2013

4-8 June 2013

On Wednesday 5th June I was a delegate to my trade union conference at the Adelphi Hotel in Liverpool. I arrived Tuesday afternoon, and stayed there overnight.

After the conference was over on Wednesday evening, I moved to another hotel and travelled home on Saturday 8th June.

Many pubs had been visited on my previous visit. See my blog at liverpool-and-nw-england-holiday for more info.

A list of all the pubs visited and beers drunk is at the end of this entry.

Some photos from Tuesday

One pub i visited was called the Caledonia, which had recently been saved from demolition.

Friday morning I went to the docks and took some photos

And finally the pub and beer list
