For long spells nothing happened. At one point it was so quiet you could hear a distant plane droning by. But Liverpool will not care.Sometimes you have to get back on the horse however you can, and if that requires a stepladder, an awkward bunk from a scornful stablehand and an ungainly scramble into the saddle, so be it.
