Off Topic Hull: City of Culture

I've found you.

You'd slid down the back of the couch.

 

So after decades of shopping in Hull,going out in Hull and supporting Hull City it makes my money a tourist s money. Get that chip off ya shoulder.

 

As you like Hull so much you would have no objection to becoming part of a greater Hull? I think it's those who live in the suburbs (sorry out lying villages ) that have the chips.

 

No. But it should have been.

 

Are estates in the leafy suburbs on the outskirts? Maybe he lived on Bransholme.

 

Which part of Hull is in the Balkans?

 

Estates are all over, even in places like Cottingham and Hessle.
Who?

 

Mr Balkan Tiger is a part of Hull.

 

Have you actually read any articles about it before rushing to give your opinions?

 

Greatfield is Bilton grange is. Norff is. Longhill too.

 

No.
Have you posted any.
My comment came after this post, not rushed into giving opinions on any articles.

Been said plenty of times on here but the tight city boundaries make a massive difference to these sort of things, in many ways.

Hull’s image and broader perceptions of its administration has meant that a lot of your more affluent ‘outskirts’ have distanced themselves from Hull, plus these places seem to have more of a self-identity than say a Didsbury or a Chorlton does in Manchester therefore desire to retain an idea of independence from the city.

They are included in Hull, Chazz.

 

All of which misses the point.

 

Totally agree with you. Would be more than happy with that. When asked always say from Hull as do kids.

 

It might miss your point, whatever the **** it is but the post from leon, replied to by DDD and subsequently followed up by myself make perfect sense.

 

No they don't.

 

Anybody else been missing this amazing banter as much as me?

 

..Swindon..

 

I guess you can find a negative loser in every town, it's just that you don't expect their skewed views to be given credence.

There's probably someone in , say, Prague, who constantly rubbishes the locals, the council, the litter, the drinking etc

That said, it says a lot about the mentality (copyright Phil Brown) of these polls that hardworking post industrial towns that have contributed much to the wealth and prosperity of this country are held up for ridicule and sneered at by know nowt suburban snobs from places such as Hinckley and Stevenage.

Bland dormitory towns for commuter drones looking down their noses at people who have forged the history of this country.

Appalling misplaced snobbery.
