I don't get the ER v Hull thing (although to be fair it doesn't seem to be much of a thing to many) I've lived in both, currently live in ER However Hull is my City, the one I identify with and what I answer when asked the question 'where are you from'
[QUOTE="Barchullona, Not many cultured people in Hull when it comes to watching culture going by the ticket sales for the Philharmonic Orchestra appearance. Fortunately the cultured folk of the East Riding came to the rescue. [/QUOTE] Do you have access to the ticket site database to prove this? The views expressed in my posts are not necessarily mine
6% of the tickets were sold in Hull, most of the tickets were sold in Kirk Ella, Anlaby, Willerby and Beverley.
Whenever I mention people living just outside the city boundary as 'not being from Hull', I'm always pulled-up on it as being 'in name only'. Interesting.
It's just from a rather bizarre article in today's HDM, pointing out that not a single person from Holderness Road bought a ticket. http://www.hulldailymail.co.uk/is-h...part-of-hull/story-30259262-detail/story.html
Essentially, these are all suburbs of Hull anyway, apart from Beverley, which is a satellite town of Hull.
Yeah I know, I've read the article. What I mean is either just outside the boundary is either in Hull or it isn't, you cant have it both ways. I think the article is ****e in the way it mentions Holderness Road specifically because nobody from HU8 bought a ticket. I grew up in HU8 and it was nowhere near Holderness Road.
The question is are the HDM doing anyone any favours asking the question? It's just like peter levy with usual headline HULL tops the list for... ? Just don't report negatives
I wanted to go to both They've made it so you can't sell tickets on anyway. You need to show the card you paid for them on as proof.
That's ok you can just lend me your credit card Rather than taking the kids I might just have to find a baby sitter and go without them
