I've got a few but had real trouble uploading as they are v. high resolution. I particularly like the one I have at the entrance to the little tunnel with the 'police free zone' graffiti.
Cos the pic limit is total number of pixels - I think - could it be done by making a 'cropped' version?
I got the one uploaded by making it 25% size-wise in both directions. They need to be resampled at a much lower res and not sure I have the software to do it. S'pose I could find a pix hosting site and provide a link? Will investigate.
Best way to post images on here is this way in bold. They don't get re-sized or ****ed about with by the site if you do it that way. Use a site such as imgur.com, then in a post on here click on the inster image button and type the BB code from Imgur into that box. I can see you've already done it using photobucket but if you can find a BB code for it and follow the process above you don't need to click a link, it gets embedded in the page.
These photos take me back! We would spend all day mooching around these tunnels or messing on at Five Arches further up the line, armed with nothing but 10 No.10 and a quarter of goodies. Nice looking GSD in one picture too!
Well if we are doing railway pictures we obviously need one of these please log in to view this image
It is I love this pic with the 3 shillings to get in sign, for our younger members that 15p to see a football match, I think a seasons ticket cost about 3 quid and that included all reserve team games plus the club sent you a Christmas card every year signed by all the players. That was back when supporters were part of an extended family and the owners cared about taking care of our wants and needs and appreciated our support. No talk about investment from China back in them days we was happy with Hoveringham Gravel sticking a few quid in and colour pics in a football programne was a special event
And, despite having a Mammoth as the company's emblem, the wagons were the correct colours! please log in to view this image https://www.google.co.uk/search?q=h...%2Fviewtopic.php%3Ff%3D35%26t%3D44142;599;479
When the place that I knew as 'Wool Sheds' (lakesideview's 'Radiator Fields') came up, it got me thinking of other places we used to hang about/play in as kids. One of the places of adventure was Sutton Trod(s), which ran from the end of Hathersage Road (east of the Hornsea railway line) in a northerly direction, to Sutton. You emerged on to Sutton Road by way of wooden steps; from the other side of the road, you descended by more wooden steps; crossed Tweendykes Road and finally emerged on Chamberlain Street. You could make a final cut-through to Church Street, emerging near the Ship Inn. http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/3326057 http://www.flickr.com/photos/ulliottj/4595229218/in/photostream/ http://www.flickr.com/photos/ulliottj/4254002752/ http://www.flickr.com/photos/ulliottj/5740552282/
I'm actually quite good at this I have brought over a few friends from America and this is my first day walk. Head east from paragon station passed the war memorial straight down towards City Hall, make a right and cross over the road and have a pint and lunch in the Punch Hotel. Continue over monument bridge, don't forget to feed the fish as you pass by then go past the old historic gate on to Whitefriargate. Keep walking till you get to Hepworths Arcade and make a right and on the way through go in Dinsdales joke shop and buy something stupid. At the end of the arcade turn right and stop in the Old Blue Bell for a pint of Sam Smiths then keep going straight past the gold phone box (Luke Campbell tribute) King Billy statue and on to look at the humber from the old corpo pier. At this point I recommend another pint in Minerva ( but that's optional) from here go to the mouth of the river Hull and you can see The Deep which is well worth a visit or make your way back along the river Hull to High Street where they have the streetlife museum and Wilberforce House. I usually stop in Black Boy for a pint on the way but I'm a bit of a plonky, out of Wilberforce House walk down and make a right and you will come to St Marys church with an arch over the walkway, worth stopping in if you are that way inclined lovely old church. Continue till you get to Queens gardens then walk through to the town dock fishing museum then wend your way back to whatever hotel or lodging you may be using stopping at whatever pubs catch your eye and maybe buy a pie from Copelands if you are hungry again. Well that's how I roll when I'm in Hull and so long as its not raining its a lovely day out. It's important to look up at the buildings because there is some beautiful architecture round that part of Hull and don't rush it take your time there is a lot to see. I should work for the bloody Hull tourist board!
