If anyone gives a ****/is bored ****less, Hull pub and B&B The Whittington and Cat will feature on Channel 4 programme "Four in a Bed" tomorrow afternoon. I should think that you're all counting down the hours with glee following this news.
I sometimes go in there, FFS don't tell me it's a programme on the best gay bars in England. What is the programme about?
I've just looked it up, thank **** it's about B and B's and not S and M. Do good grub in there and the staff are spot on.. Party get your skinny white ass in there and taste their wares.
Can't be just about gays, there's pussy and dick in the name. I think it's the one where B&B owners stay as guests in each others accommodation.
only time i go in there is before a concert at the ice arena, i usually last about 20 seconds then spit my dummy out about how crowded it is and walk out
My brother reckons they do spot on grub. Been in this flat 3 years and I've never been in. Gotta sort it out! I will. You're right. I'll report back my findings.
If I had one of those rooms( and I often wish I did) I'd wear a white chunky knit jumper, a captains hat and smoke a pipe. I'd then imagine I was captain on the QE2 and talk really posh to anyone that came to my 'cabin'. It'd be ****ing brill.
You could flail aimlessly from one wall to the other, and when questioned state matter-of-factly that "the seas are choppy, and one shouldn't be so nonchalant about it.". "To the life rafts, women and children first! There's an iceberg, and at least 6 large sharks..." Seriously though, it's a bit like the underwater zone in Crystal Maze here. No puzzles though, yet I'm sure I have at least 30 seconds in the dome...
Whittington and Cat's back passage (no , I mean the alleyway at the rear !!!) was featured in Only fools and horses - to hull and back. Pete Cheeseman was the Landlord at the time. Bit of useless info there.
Well if it's trivia you want... Did you know Dick Whittington's cat followed him through thick and thin, but left when he shaved his beard off? Things were different back then, us more informed types know nine out of ten cats prefer Whiskers.
Richard Whittinton was a notorious gay (well documented see Wiki). He went straight for some time and became Mayor.... then heard "turn again Dick Whittington" and the rest is history
Alternatively you could wear the same get up but with a patch over one eye( whether it's left or right makes no odds here) and call yourself Ludwig or Fritz. Whenever a plane passed overhead you could shout (German accent is non negotiable ), "SPITFIRE, DIVE DIVE". Of course you don't get port holes in U Boats but that would be part of the josh. In fact it would be the whimsical jape of the season. All your other 'crew members' would love you for it and you'd be the toast of Willy Boo House. I can't be the first person to have thought of this though.
