Liverpool: The new place to be?

[lucyloose1980]

Check out the fly-on-the-wall promo for Foxy's T-Party, last Friday of every month in Liverpool. All crossdressers, transvestites, transsexuals, T-Girls, sissies, maids, mistresses, anyone slightly gender variant, and those admiring from afar welcomed. It's 20 minutes long in 2 parts and the sound's a bit dodgy, but what d'yu expect in a loud club with a small camcorder?!

I'm sold. I live by Beverly Hills and Bel Air but I'm off to the airport to come to Liverpool to rent a flat. Should I bring my sunblock or no?

Don't bring your car or they'll nick your car stereo and hubcaps.

Is it safe for Infidels to live there?

LMAO, I wouldn't bother with the sun screen to be honest, but then again we've had a heat wave all week! Not exactly California standards, but to us Brits it's been scorching! You may find Liverpool girls tend to look tanned all year round anyway seen as there's a tanning salon on every corner!

Not if you have anything worth nicking. Scousers are notorious for it.

[lucyloose1980]

Well that depends on whether the person deserves it or not. With your attitude, it wouldn't surprise me if you weren't made welcome!

I just thought it was their natural Paki glow.

lol, oh dear having lived here all my life, I've never heard or used half them words! Some of them maybe old ones? This will be interesting to ask the Americans in our midst

Zoom to 1:00 on this vid??? This would be a quintessential Scouse accent. Do you understand it at all?? The problem I think is that the goold ole USA doesn't hear our accents enough, just look at poor Cheryl Cole given the boot from the US XFactor
