    Paragon needs some of the money/ideas they have showered on Leeds station, but most of all the lines need electrification.

    I tried to be first to get up Allams out, but it doesn't understand the bloody 'ull accent. Nearest I got was Allans house. It did divert a row with Mrs A as she was suppose ot be videoing it and she somehow missed it.

    I was reading some history of Hull. That spot was the site of the first Hull port, but they had to develop it elsewhere, due to the build up of mud.

    So, are you saying the footprints were more likely tiger feet?

    Green Bricks is apparently getting more cultured and is changing its name to 'Humber Dock Bar & Grill'.

    They lean both ways. If it turns out their photographer has a broken neck, I'm going to look a right twat.

    Was looking at this the other day - new name and bit of a tidy up, that's it really.

    Noticed Corn Exchange has being closed the last couple of days. Seems suspicious, only reopened a few months back. Hope it's not terminal.

    Went in there whilst watching the light show and I think they got caught out with the crowds? I Asked for a pint, vodka & lemonade, ice & lemon, a Coke & crisps! I got my pint anyway! <laugh>
