This is my new Google blog, the old one is now set to be read by me only. This blog will have a lot less about work & I hope can not offended anyone at National Express or any other evil coach company's.

Wednesday last week
Last Wednesday, I went to the back of the hotel, on floor 5, this place has two , with lifts, one that not working.
Both looking rough , I also notice that there is more rooms, as well, so then I done a walk around the back, the street at the back of the hotel is full of cars and trash.
There much more at the back than I thought, then the other side, with wheelchair entry, then back to the front, which is where it looks it best.
I was looking at Lewis department store building, now just part of it, used as a gym, so people are still going into here.
I done a list of how many department store I know of, in Norwich, I try to do the same again.
1. John Lewis (used to be Bonds)
2. Marks & Spencer
3. Debenhams (now closed)
4. House of Fraser
5. Jarrold (local)
6. Roys (local)
7. Co-Op (that now Wilko, that going to close)
8. British Home Stores (BHS)
Then there are shops that might be seen as department stores in some ways, and not in others.
9. Wilko
10. Woolworths
11. Littlewoods
So that was just listing from memory of Norwich.
I done this list the first time standing outside The Adelphi Hotel, Liverpool, looking at Lewis department store, so think what makes a Department Store?
Like Wiko's could be listed as Hardware store more, and I see that how Google Maps list it, but then I see Marks & Spencer it says is Supermarket? .

Notes to myself
My second hotel for this trip to Liverpool, was a four star 30 James Street, I wonder what this place look like inside, so I did look at prices, over £200 per night, but when I looked for Thursday night , it was £67:50, so I booked it?
So I wanted to see what this hotel was 4 Star Hotel, I got room 006, it had free wi-fi, but did not have a kettle with tea bags, coffee, sugar, milk?
Wednesday night, I spend some time at The rocking Horse pub, with they live music, I was feeling ok then, but the sore throat , ear ache and cough.
This seem to get more ?
So I did not want to drink, but needed to drink some soft drink?
After I been in 30 James Street for a little time, I went to The Captain Alexander for pint of Orange juice, Old Jamaica Ginger Beer, and Apple Crumble with strawberries and extra ice cream, I found it a little hard to eat the food, loss of appetite I then went back to hotel.
Friday morning, I got up, to get train to Lime Street.
I try to use the shower, same controls as the one at my last hotel, but a full standing shower without tap for a bath (no bath), but since I had to nearly stand under the shower that was cold, to change it, in the hope to get more warm water, I gave up
I was not feeling too great, and this did not help.
I got the 05:54 James Street to Liverpool Lime Street 507021.
No shops was open, and I wanted a drink for the trip, then Costa Coffee open, got two drinks in bottle.
At least I had something.
158812, 158783, 158777 & 158774 arrived at 06:31, "The first two coaches going to Nottingham and Norwich", that would be 158774, but it was 158777 that went all the way thought to Norwich, 158774 only as far as Nottingham Midland.
It felt like a long trip, at Norwich I walked home, may be sitting down for a few hours, help make the trip harder.
I just empty the bins, fed the cats, then try to sleep, not doing very well in this.
Have been drinking hot milk (well warm), and honey.
I have not felt sleepy, do not feel the need to eat, very strange,

Last night in Adephi Hotel,
I went out today, to The Blob Shop, got Fab Four ale, £2:25, not as good as last time, may be my taste buds was wrong, or it was getting to the last pint of the barrel.
So went to The Rocking Horse, live music was great, Guinness £3:80, great, it was not very full, but more people came, then I went back to hotel.
I then went to Celtic Corner, had one pint, then McDonald, Ranelagh Street, got another one just a few doors away.
I got bacon 🥓 burger 🍔 two, just that.
Then back to hotel, and 🛗 lift was playing up, so walk.
Five floors, well keeps me more fit 🤠
My last night in this hotel, next the Docks hotel, White Star
