7 years ago
It’s Monday morning, its the last week of September and as expected, it’s raining.
Luckily you’ve got us happy souls! We’re up early, annoyingly positive and determined to bring a smile to your glum, Monday face. There were some epic club nights, freshers parties, theatre performances and more throughout the weekend and we’ve scoured the interweb to bring you a little reminder. So turn that frown upside down and crack a smile at these.
Here’s 5 Scouse tweets that will a smile on your Monday commute…..

We love a little day out in Southport, West Kirby, New Brighton etc but we’ve never seen the Merseyrail Network look like this before! Can’t wait to rescue Princess Peach from Fort Perch Rock and slide down the flag pole at the end! Well played Tom German!

We were gutted when the Great Baltic Water Fight had to be cancelled due to bad weather, but it got us thinking about summer fun back in the day. This tweet started off in the East Midlands but quickly stirred up memories here on Merseyside. Who else couldn’t afford one of those big supersoakers but had a ball soaking their mates with one of these bad boys? Council estate or not, this was what 80’s summers were made of!
