There are B&Bs on Mount Pleasant in Liverpewl.
If you're not bothered about quality try Formule1 hotel. Shit but £33/night and you can fit as many in the room as you like.
I like the sound of that! Just finished reading The Road. It is one of the bleakest books I have ever read but I can't recommend it highly enough. I've never read anything that makes you care so much about the main protagonists.
As mentioned earlier Shantaram is an epic. The author is one crazy smackhead gora.
Got The Ragged Trousered Philanthropists by Robert Tressall to read next (after shamelessly abandoning it a couple of years ago).
Lanark by Alasdair Gray is also gathering dust in my house.
I don't watch Portuguese football but Porto and the national team are the worst diving, simulating cheats. We need to get used to playing sneaky teams like this. It's all good practice for the Europa league.
Bring on Madrid.
