Good question.
At first it appears to be a spelling mistake, but when you look at the 'Circo' website ( a bar at The Albert Dock which has the legend of 'Freakshow') this same spelling is used for an event that they are holding on Boxing Day Night. It is most likely a take on the original Cirque du Soleil - but to fit in with their branding?

I appreciate that quite a number of the images that I captured in the city today may be familiar to regular viewers of this thread; however, it was such a lovely winter's day today: frosty but with blue skies - that I decided to do a big circuit, covering quite a substantial area of the city centre.
I took the train into town; and the photographs are posted in the order in which they were taken:

you're blest you've got a nice, sunny weather and great images as always.
I'm truly fascinated with your series of doors which subject is one of your favorites.

We have had some blue sky days, even though it has been very cold. Today, however, was freezing and overcast. I guess the rain you have been receiving is symptomatic of your rainforest location?

I love doors, and in particular bright red ones such as the one in the last set of photos.




Today, in the neighbourhood of Aigburth, L17 - a few miles south of the city centre:

The reference on the placard regarding selling newspapers "but not The Sun" - is a reference to the boycott, in Liverpool, of The Sun newspaper because of its handling of the reporting of The Hillsborough football tragedy - in which 96 Liverpool fans were crushed to death.
