Tony and Tatiana stood on the pavement outside a building with a neoclassical facade on Lord Street in Southport. Southport is a small coastal town located north of Liverpool. The neoclassical building was originally a bank and was built in the mid-1920s. Today it houses the Occulo Lounge, a cafe and bar, which serves all-day brunch and burgers, hot and cold beverages and has cakes and some desserts. A comfy place to have lunch or afternoon drinks. Both Tony and Tatiana are wearing dark coloured padded jackets and are carrying mobility canes. Tony is wearing a dark baseball cap and Tatiana has dark sunglasses. Southport is connected to Liverpool by the Merseyrail, a local area train network.Tony and Tatiana beside a life-sized bronze statue of Bessie Braddock on the concourse of Liverpool Lime Street railway station.
