Visited your wonderful city for the first time at the weekend and I must say I was very impressed. A few of the more modern buildings are seriously questionable, but on the whole I thought the architecture, public realm and preservation of historic buildings was enviable.

Anyway, here is a picture I took down at Albert Dock on my crappy phone:

And not quite Liverpool but the Liver birds were borrowed for the opening of Bradford city park.

Me neither, the whole city region is so much bigger and more interesting than I ever realised. I learn a lot about it here.

Iraq war veteran Craig Lundberg, who was blinded in Basra in 2007, took the torch off the Mersey Ferry and lit the cauldron beneath the Liver Building.

The 26-year-old Liverpudlian said: "Its so magical, I'm so proud you've picked me to carry the Olympic torch."

When asked what kept him going, Mr Lundberg, who recently became a father, said "I'm just a Scouser - plain and simple".

To rapturous applause from the estimated crowd of 20,000 at Pier Head he said: "Our city has the best skyline, and the best people and we have held the rest of the country to ransom - they have got to follow us now."

He said he would donate his torch to the new Liverpool museum as it was "part of our heritage".
