    I tried the Gin Distilery on Humber St yesterday (after 1884 tapas)
    They were both very good (although the tapas is quite pricey)
    Gin was very good. I went for a Black Tomato & fevertree (£6.50) and Mrs Tash went for a rhubarb gin and ginger beer (£6)
    Both were really good, I'll go again

    Plenty more to choose from I suppose

    I enjoyed the Black Tomato. Served with basil and juniper berries

    Yep that's how I had it. Though I am prepared to give it another try. It was the last gin of the day so my tastebuds will have been non existent.

    Aah. Don't like salt. That's why I don't like botanist gin either.
    Maybe I won't then.
    Off to the neighbours tomorrow for his all afternoon/night party. Reckons he's got his own gin bar, which has swayed me as I don't like him.

    Yeah. I like Botanist so Black Tomato's not for you

    Clean your neighbour out instead

    It will be done. I'm hoping he's got Tanqueray. Was drinking that on holiday and it's excellent

    So did Colleen, which is where Chazz's dislike of salt came from.

    Licensing go-ahead given for Thursday's Street Food Nights in Zebedee's Yard & Princes Dock St, 4pm to 7pm.

    The new license allows for the events to be held more than once a month.

    angus young‏ @angus_young61
    Last Hull Street Food Nights was cancelled after police objection over potential for terrorist attack in Trinity Square, councillors told.

    angus young ‏@angus_young61
    Police worried about risk posed by several vehicle access points to Trinity Square, apparently.

    I know they've got to cover their backs, but that seems a little over the top.

    It's Humberside Police we're talking about here.

    Personally I'm pleased they're on top of potential threats that the public wouldn't have considered.

    Were they acting on received intelligence or a tip off?
    If not, it's merely a hypothetical threat, like hundreds of similar events.
    Terrorism winning?

    I walk passed there last week and it's looking good, as well as the hotel next to it.

    Are many units taken do we know? When I lived in High Street about 15 years ago (yikes) the indoor market was ****e - couple of low end fishmongers, a fruit and veg and that was about it.
