    Actually the only bits that will not be finished will be the fountains in Vicky Square and the revamped Beverley Gate but I believe all the paving will be in place.

    Anyone getting off the ferry isn't going to be able to miss the fact that we're City of Culture...

    The Post Office don't recognise it as a Postal Address. Any company using it, is doing so because they've got a piss poor system. Let them know so they don't continue to look foolish and incompetent. <ok>

    There's quite a bit that won't be ready for Jan 1st, about a third of it won't be completed until March '17...

    Really can't envisage King Edward Street 'South' being finished in December, about 2/3 of the old stuff hasn't even been dug up yet.

    They've got no chance.

    Apart from the pavements what about the content? Looking forward to a new gallery down Humber Street with the COUM/Throbbing Gristle stuff and the Ferens reopening with Tunick's Sea Of Hull and Bacon's Screaming Popes. Got tickets for The Hypocrite, selling fast. City of Culture, we know what we are.
