I am on about the Hull people who choose to live outside of Hull then go on about it being great. If it was that great they would stay in the city. I am not on about people who move far away for work I am on about the ones who move out to the nearby villages.

Surely if you live in Bilton (like me) or Thorngumbald you're allowed to say Hull is great? I visit Hull pretty much every week. In fact if you want to be technical I walk my dog into Hull every single day when I pass Asda.

I get it if someone has moved to Leeds but anywhere with 10 miles and you're still a Hull resident for me.

I think Hull is a place which is like a lot of villages. Ask people from Leeds, Sheffield, Sunderland and elsewhere where they are from and they is what they will tell you. Hull folk say Longhill, Orchard Park, Hessle Road…Know a lad who years ago was on guard duty at Buckingham Palace. people had been in signing the visitors book. A load came in from a coach trip and put OPE after their names. The other guard, a southerner, said a lot of you look good for old age pensioners when he saw it thinking OP was for old people. He cringed at the incredulous way the went OPE is Orchard Park Estate as though everyone should be aware of it. Why they just couldn’t put Hull…

What did the E stand for in OPE if the OP was Old Pensioners?

I have no idea if this guy is legit or not, but you'd have to go to some effort to make this up.. and why would someone do that anyway

So, Beverley people are Hull residents? Council tax collectors would disagree. And voting constituencies for councillors about the 10 mile thing.

I was born & raised in East Hull, my country home is about 25miles from Hull in the Yorkshire wolds but still class myself as Hull boy. When someone asks where I’m from I just say the countryside north of Hull.
