'Every church should be bombed out and show old...
Here in Liverpool we have a church in the city centre fondly dubbed The Bombed Out Church. It’s mostly used for it’s steps as a seating area for the drunken masses at 6am trying to all get a taxi at the same time, but every now and then you walk past and you see the posters and the lights and hear the classic quotes and intent silence coming from inside and you wish you could stop life...
