Hull has seen a Hell of a transformation over the past 10 years or so and I encourage you and any other 'sheeple' to visit the place in our City Of Culture next year.
There are good and bad areas in every town and city, Malcolm, and I'm sure wherever you hail from has plenty of those as well?
Understand where I'm coming from bud?

Re: Anyone from East Yorkshire?
I didn't use to like Hull at all but as it was my nearest city visited for shopping. However, things are changing in Hull, I've visited some great museums, stayed in some nice hotels, found great places to eat, and now see it in a different light. The Deep is well worth a visit as is the Streetlife Museum. Hoping the City of Culture Year will see many more improvements in the city.12-08-2016, 01:56 AM
