    "I took her up the Hull Minster"

    Could become a local euphemism

    The view from the top of the Minster is fantastic.
    Then a pint of Boston in the place on the corner of Posterngate, then a spicy chicken pie and an Atom beer in Zebedees Yard (food festival is miles better there btw)

    Just washing it down at home with maltesers and a large Glenmorangie (cheers for the birthday present Askew)

    I've enjoyed all the food festivals, but the queues...

    Our visits usually go down like this.

    Our lass: See anything you fancy?

    Me: The one with the shortest queue.

    I did take her up it
    I took her right up the tight spiral staircase
    It was really tight...and she was quite scared a couple of times.
    I squeezed in ok though
    Legs were aching a bit by the end, but it was well worth it for the feeling at the top

    Holy Trinity is still a better name. Hull Minster doesn't sound right.

    Hope the mrs managed to get a go on the organ den, it's supposed to be very impressive...

    Understandably it wheezes a lot more than it used to these days.

    :emoticon-0127-lipss I won't mention the woman complaining about the size of the organ, and the man saying it's not used to performing in a cathedral. :emoticon-0127-lipss

    Chazz is right
    The organ is impressive
    However you can't just walk in and start fingering it whenever you want
