Same here! LV is right, CK is Preston I think, but reversed to KC it is Liverpool. I remember all this from those I-Spy books. I had the I-Spy book of Car Registrations. π€¦ββοΈ Profoundly sad but it kept me quiet on long car journeys to Cornwall. I was only 35 at the time. π«£π
Yes definitely Bootle, didnβt change to include Liverpool until 1974. Well spotted!
I hope so, I havenβt seen a diddy man hat in quite a while.
Although this is Emlyn Hughes. A mistake anyone could make.

Another superb @evertonheritage.bsky.social talk/social event at @denbighcastle.bsky.social , last night.
Paul McParlan chatted with @lewisroyden.bsky.social about the Toffees' title-winning team of 1986/87.
Thanks for the great support for these events.
Yep, including many Spurs fans π
Brilliant day yesterday filming for The Everton Heritage show presented by @lewisroyden.bsky.social with Brendan Connolly and his incredible memorabilia collection. Then to the @denbighcastle.bsky.social for our @evertonheritage.bsky.social night with Paul McParlan, again presented by Lewis. πππ
More on the promontory fort at Helsby, #Cheshire - as mapped by the OS at the turn of the C19-20, and on a recent satellite view. The massive sandstone ridge is obvious even from above, & the earthworks visible to varying degrees, depending on land-use. #HillfortsWednesday
Great to see, always a favourite. Hereβs a few from a previous tweet.
We are looking forward to our third talk/social night event, tomorrow evening. Paul McParlan will be talking all things Everton 1986/87 at the Denbigh Castle.

Wow @wildtwin.bsky.social this is brilliant!
In Halewood (part of Knowsley), the first library there was built opposite our house. I spent hours in there from aged 8 upwards. It was an absolute gift to have it there. This is a great cause.
Great choice!
The Everton village lock up, with @evertonstadium.com in the distance, last night. @mikeroyden.bsky.social writes about the history of the lock up (and its links to EFC) in a recent @evertonheritage.bsky.social article:

ππ Cheers Brian!
A great conversation between Jamie Yates and @lewisroyden.bsky.social about the areas of EFC historical research carried out by the former (George Farmer, Thomas Keates and more).

The latest article on our website sees @mikeroyden.bsky.social (pictured here with Ronny Goodlass) delve into the history of the Everton district and how it was mapped. He goes on to explain how the lock up tower came to be a symbol of EFC.

Mapping the Lock Up and the History of the Everton Crest.
A fantastic deep dive by @mikeroyden.bsky.social into the history of the Everton district, the beacon, the lock up - and story of our famous club crest.
Top class Evertonia.
