    Off Topic I've had a belly full of rum and coke, reflective and, yes maudling, but what the hell. Ok guys?

    Just been looking at songs that I love, past reflections, but it is what it is, yep, you are where you are at because of all the **** that has gone on in your life.

    Off Topic Hull City Centre Public Realm Strategy

    I thought London (Haringey) was the centre of the universe Barch, you know all go and that. It is indeed a heck of a city but I just feel that it detracts from the struggles of us a bit further from the centre of universe so to speak.

    Off Topic Hull City Centre Public Realm Strategy

    Forgot about the King Billy stuff dazzar, but 800 other homes I did not know about, well, I welcome all this development but not sure how the infrastructure will cope. I still wonder who is buying up all of these 4/5 bedroom houses springing up on Hull's outskirts and as for Kingswood it just...

    Off Topic FNMT - End of the year

    I detested this song at the time of it's No1 position as it knocked The Beatles off the top, but over the years I came to realise what a great record, and what a great singer Chris Farlow was.

    Off Topic Hull City Centre Public Realm Strategy

    Ah yes, forgot about all that, but there are bound to be other areas that I have overlooked in the city centre, or not far away, which I might have included. Not sure how the parking thing is going to be sorted out either for all this accommodation.

    Off Topic Hull City Centre Public Realm Strategy

    A bit of a conundrum here, the top floor of Hammonds to be flats, ok apartments, the old Queens gardens police station is being converted to apartments, as of yet I don't know what the old TSB bank on the corner of Bond St/George St is going to be, my guess is more apartments. Then there was...

    Off Topic Hull: City of Culture

    Like most places that I have visited throughout the UK, and that is quite a few, there are pluses and minuses about living in many towns and cities. And I have come to realise that many comments from people, are not actually linked to the area where they live but are more attuned towards their...

    Off Topic Hull: City of Culture

    It must be a generation thing as I think as for me comedy finished with the likes of Dave Allen, Billy Connolly, Les Dawson, Morecambe and Wise, The Two Ronnies, Only Fools and Horses era. I mean the likes of Harry Hill funny?

    Off Topic Wine, not whine

    It's funny now reading this thread about wine as it was many years ago that I switched from beer drinking to red wine as a tipple. This alone made me a laughing stock and the cause of much mirth between my drinking pals. I decided that I couldn't take the bulk of multiple pints any more, causing...

    Off Topic Embrace Life and Grab Every Opportunity

    Excellent post Casual which summed up life with your eloquent words, I have re-evaluated life having lost many friends and close relatives over the last few years. And I have come to realise, rather late in life, how petty and shallow some other people are, and are not, and never were, worth the...
