Happy New Year and all the best for 2026! Photo from inside Liverpool Town Hall from one of my lovely Liverpool City Region Blue Badge colleagues. Although I seem to have morphed into Elisabeth Moss!

Good to see @MuseumLiverpool is returning to 7 day opening, but sad that itβs only for (and because of) the school holidays. A world class tourism city, but with publicly funded museums which donβt open Mondaysβ¦unless the kids are off school of course! #qualifiedtoguide @VLBiz

Looking forward to reading this document but disappointing that the qualified tourist guides were not consulted. It will be interesting too see if Mathew Street is included as a heritage asset @lpoolcouncil @CultureLPool @CllrNickSmall #qualifiedtoguide liverpoolexpress.co.uk/new-pβ¦

One year ago I posted this photo of one of The Battle of the Atlantic memorial trees on Canada Boulevard. We were told by @CultureLPool that its replacement was in handβ¦.one year onβ¦.#qualifiedtoguide @VLBiz

Surely you wouldnβt chop down a maple tree which forms part of the commemoration of The Battle of the Atlantic just to make way for a temporary fence??? @liamrobinson24 @CultureLPool @lpoolcouncil @VLBiz

Already getting reports of regular clients having to cancel groups coming to Liverpool due to hotels reducing their availability at the time of the LFC parade. When we calculate the economic impact, will the negative economic impact also be calculated? #qualifiedtoguide @VLBiz

We love our museums, but do those who run them love them too? Spotted this today in the toilets of @MuseumLiverpool @NML_Muse #qualifiedtoguide

Good question to @liamrobinson24 from John in Tuebrook on @snellyradio
@bbcmerseyside about temporary traffic lights/lane closures remaining in place after roadworks have been completed. Great to hear commitment from Cllr. Robinson to sort this @lpoolcouncil #qualifiedtoguide

Several years ago when this coach park was announced by @lpoolcouncil the tour guides association asked questions about location and access. We were told that access would not be an issue #qualifiedtoguide

A coach got stuck this morning on Riverside Drive when turning into a coach parking area, causing some disruption in the area. Unfortunately this has happened more than once with different vehicles. The road is now clear and traffic is flowing again. @lpoolcouncil

With @MaritimeMuseum_ and @SlaveryMuseum closing for refurbishment will @NML_Muse have the resources to open one or more of their museums on a Monday when there are so many visitors in the city? @LpoolMarketing @VLBiz #qualifiedtoguide

Disappointing to see that planners have given the thumbs up to this part of the development of @SlaveryMuseum @NML_Muse How is a modern glass structure on the side of a Victorian dock building add any value? #qualifiedtoguide

Disappointing to see that @Global_Ports has changed access arrangements at @CruiseLiverpool - passengers on private tours can no longer meet their guide and driver inside the terminal. This is NOT how we welcome visitors in Liverpool @VLBiz @LpoolMarketing #qualifiedtoguide
