    He's a bit short on resources in all his videos; being an enthusiastic amateur on his own - he just tends to walk and talk.

    He's done some interesting stuff on the history of Hull though. Especially around the railways which is his real passion.


    Anyone who can make a series called Snickets of Cottingham is a force to be reckoned with anarl!

    Something from yesterday which was missed, the Queen has been on the throne for 70 years, must be a big job that.

    No more fighting cocks



    It was the oldest pub in England (even though the carpet in Cheese seemed like it was older)

    I can't fully remember how I ended up with these, so I have no idea of the dates or back story, but I kept them because I didn't like to see them just thrown away.

    I apologise if the quality's not up to much, as they're just photograph's of the old photo's I have. I've two or three more I can post if these work.

    Recognise anyone, or the place? They could be Police crime scene shots of someone inspired by John Haigh. <laugh>

    I just noticed the one with the two trailers on has a date on the back of the 17th of June 1953. I'm assuming they were all taken at the same time.

    The ones with the kits doubled up is how I used to load my wagon. Went on the public road and got pulled by a police car, thought I was in for it. Luckily he just wanted to buy some fish <laugh>. Put one in a bag for him and drove off.

    They was taken exactly a year before I was born.

    You never forget that smell mate. Even though I showered after every shift when I left the job it was a year before it completly left your pores. Summer was ****ing awful.

    I always thought first base was kissing, second, a boob grope, third, finger pie and fourth, a home run. There wasn’t a base for anal.

    So it's basically a straight choice between walking over the Humber Bridge or wan-king over the Humber bridge?
