    It's a coincidence, absolute cast iron fact.

    I've even managed to get my eldest brother, who's turned into a bit of a cultural snob over the past few years, and has never actually lived in Hull or the surroundings, to do a weekend in July and he's quite excited to be going to a play at Hull Truck amongst other things. So the City is obviously doing something very right for him to be dragging himself and his missus up there from leafy Hertfordshire. They probably wouldn't have been seen dead in Hull for a weekend before.

    Apparently, 1.5m people have attended CoC2017 events so far.

    I can't believe that everyone who has visited CoC2017 is 1.5m...it's only about 4'6".

    I have actually been to more than one event, should I tell someone? 1.499992m people just doesn't sound quite so impressive (I thinks it's 8 events)

    It's getting rave reviews, but the floor's very slippery apparently.

    went last night, really enjoyed, its something very different again to experience and very well put together, though how some of them managed to perform in that rain was beyond me. some of the paths weren't too clever, but nothing drastic. enjoy, "but don't look back" ! saw plenty of parking tickets dished out on cars down thorseby street too, though if you want to park on double yellows, well,....
