I have the city centre, family and friends close by but within five minutes I can be in the countryside. 20 minutes away is the beach.

Amsterdam Road is not the centre of Hull mate. It's an industrial estate like any other in the country. Just factories and businesses.

Hull had changed a hell of a lot for the better in recent years.
Where do you live incidentally, or are you afraid to say?

The outskirts of Dunstable.
I guess there is some form of crime, housing problems, closing stores in Dunstable too mate. No different to Hull I wouldn't have thought.

I guess I'm a 'townie", Pauline. But I do like to drive into the surrounding countryside when I can. Same as the seaside - it's a change of scene from the hustle bustle I see all week.

We have our own telephone exchange, we're not part of BT and that's why the phone boxes are not red. In fact, KC Communications own the football stadium.

I wouldn't want to live in the centre of any city.

There you go then. Hull is no different to any other city.
