Spent the day in Liverpool watching the giants walking around the city center.
Absolutely superb,if a little surreal,experience.
If you can make it to Liverpool then well worth the effort.... :thumbsup:

That girl is kinda spooky, but I like the dog!
What is the background to this event? Thanks.

This year it's to commemorate the 100th anniversary of the start of The Great War, and particularly the Liverpool Pals (Liverpudlians who enlisted en masse - sometimes many from the same family/streets).
The Giants actually 'talk' this time around and narrate tales based on letters from the front by the Liverpool Pals, I believe.
