Bill [Parr] Worked For Rushworths Music Shop In Liverpool, Not Far From NEMS: "Sometimes Before They

Bill [Parr] worked for Rushworths music shop in Liverpool, not far from NEMS: "Sometimes before they had to disappear to wherever they were playing that day, The Beatles would assemble in the café below Rushworths. (...) They'd all borrow books from the music shop; well it is better than having to buy them! I promised to educate them and once said to Paul "Let's start with you, you're young." Paul took exception to that and told me proudly that he'd left school. Paul was known by us all there as 'our baby' because of his youthful looks. "Often in the café, I would sit down and talk to the Beatles; they were all good friends and very sociable. They had a good sense of humour and liked the banter in the morning. One of my games was to arm-wrestle with them. I'd start with Ringo and work my way through them all, teasing them that they weren't as good as the others. (...) "One interesting little fact is that when we were sitting in the café, naturally there would be several 'lad's' jokes, the ruder the better when men are together. However, if there were any ladies present, one of The Beatles didn't like that type of humour, and would cough when the jokes turned blue. Can you guess who it was? Astonishingly, it was John Lennon. Who would have believed that? It seems that maybe not all of Mimi's discipline was wasted."

The Beatles Didn’t Fit Any Known Categories. My First Impression Was… How Could Somebody Possibly

The Beatles didn’t fit any known categories. My first impression was… how could somebody possibly create such music? The Beatles were different because they looked within themselves. They were singing to each other. Resonating to each other. Empathizing with each other. It felt like they, themselves, were in search of something. I’ve never seen any team like them. I think it was one of those things that happens in history once in 100 or 200 years. One thing I can say is that people are lonely, but when people do connect like they did, there’s joy, happiness, and satisfaction. It’s a miracle, I think. – Shimpei Asai, Beatles photographer

🌟 A Cry for Help: My Family’s Struggle to Survive in Gaza 🌟

Hello, my name is Areej Kassab. I’m a 27-year-old English teacher and writer from Gaza, and I’m reaching out to you with a heavy heart and a desperate plea for support. My family and I are enduring unimaginable hardships as relentless bombings devastate our home and our dreams.

🌟 A Cry For Help: My Family’s Struggle To Survive In Gaza 🌟
🌟 A Cry For Help: My Family’s Struggle To Survive In Gaza 🌟

We are a family of 15—10 adults and 5 children. Every day is a battle for survival. Food is scarce, humanitarian aid is not reaching us, and my little nieces and nephews go to bed hungry. Among them is my sister, who is deaf, and another sister who has a newborn baby. They, too, are suffering in this crisis, and I’m doing everything I can to protect and provide for them.

🌟 A Cry For Help: My Family’s Struggle To Survive In Gaza 🌟

💔 A Life in Ruins The war has robbed us of everything: safety, peace, and even the hope of a future here. My family’s needs are basic yet critical—food, clean water, diapers for the babies, gas for cooking, and other essentials to make it through each day.

With rising prices and limited access to necessities, we are struggling to provide even the most basic items. My sister’s home has been destroyed, and we are working together to ensure everyone has shelter, food, and warmth.

✨ My Plea for Your Support ✨ I’m a writer, and I’ve been documenting the harsh realities faced by my community under siege. But words can only do so much. We need action, and we need help. Your kindness can save us.

🙏 How You Can Help

Donate: Every contribution, no matter how small, brings us closer to securing the essentials we desperately need.

Share Our Story: If you can’t donate, please share this post to help us reach others who can.

Your support will help provide food for the children, clean water for my family, and basic supplies to help us survive this unimaginable crisis.

Donate to Emergency Evacuation for Areej's Family in Gaza, organized by Melissa Saul

My name is Melissa and I am supporting Areej to help her family surviv… Melissa Saul needs your support for Emergency Evacuation for Aree

Thank you for reading, for caring, and for standing in solidarity with us. Together, we can create a lifeline for my family—a chance to live, to dream, and to hope again.

With love and gratitude, Areej Kassab ❤️
