Birchwood shopping centre is in dire need of a facelift, it's run down and often looks in need of a…read moregood clean. However it is convenient for the local area, inside is an Asda and Iceland aswell as some chain stores such as New Look and Argos. Parking is free and there is plenty of it, making it easy to come here. The shops tend to be the cheaper end of the high street stores, newsagents, charity and sports shops. At Christmas they often have a small grotto and a Santa which is nice for the children. Birchwood shopping centre is probably not somewhere you would go Saturday shopping, the range of shops is just too small but it is nice to have a quick look around the shops if you are going to one of the supermarkets anyway.

We use this station for day-trips to Liverpool. The reason for this is that trains from Manchester…read moreto Liverpool for some reason seem to take an age, and by the time you've got into Manchester as well you've more or less wasted half a day. Much better instead to drive to Birchwood Station, fairly close to the M62, park there (the car park always seems to have spaces to spare), and then catch one of the frequent trains to Liverpool: problem solved. Birchwood station itself is small but clean and tidy, with good signage and information about departures. The ticket office doesn't seem to be manned very often but the ticket machines (once you've mastered them) do the job. All in all: a good place.

Grange Shopping Centre in Birkenhead offers a wide variety of small and larger shops, coffee shops…read moreand cafes, electronic stores, bakeries and much more. What I like most about this shopping centre is that there even some independent small businesses here. It's not ALL Sayers, the O2 Shop, Home Bargains, et al. Another neat thing about this particular shopping centre is the exceptionally large amount of charity shops you will find here. If you love bargain hunting, second hand book browsing, and vintage/rescued clothing, you'll have a blast perusing the wares in the many different charity shops here. I find it difficult to drag myself away. Of course if you do prefer the chain stores, and the big names, you will find some of them here, as well as in the Pyramid Shopping Centre just next door.

Only yesterday I went to a network's-own shop (mobile phone) and B&M (the discount store) and didn't have to get rained on as the car park is also accessed from inside the centre. The only thing about the car park is, it's on a one-way street, and I get lost in Rhyl quite easily as about half the town centre is one-way streets!

However, whereas Grand Central has settled in like a divorcee on your sofa, Gostins has suffered from both being slightly out of the way and the temporary feel of its accommodation. Gostins is still worth a visit though, especially for the book shop that used to be in the Bluecoat (another outcast) and Route 69 hairdressers.

I have lived in Merseyside for two years now and finally visited Gostins for the first time…read moreyesterday. It's fabulous! What a great little smattering of shops including collectables and antiques, handmade jewellery, home-made cakes, Wicca and goth, used books, and so much more. Probably my favourite shop in here is Collage which offers a really delightful selection of antiques and collectables at great prices. I also really like Mookow Army and Bluecoat Books. Some of the shops are not open during all regular business hours so you may find a few closed when you pop in but keep coming back to visit the various ones you missed before. I know that's my plan!
