    I believe it is going out on tour, including Nottingham ...

  5. Interesting link to the hardman house museum DJ360 ......

    We are having another girlie weekend in Liverpool and this would interest me......the girls want to do the Beatles house tour but as I was brought up on Booker Ave, next to the Mcartneys and a mile away from auntie Mimi, I think I will give it a miss !!!!!!!....I do enjoy the bohemian area of Liverpool and this museum would be one to view.
