Just to be crystal clear, it didn't go over my head but do carry on having a pop at Hull if it makes your day complete.
I regularly eat out and try new places in Hull, so I'm more than happy to spend money here when it's a worth while experience. The shopping is embarrassing though.

Last week one of their article headers (paper edition, thus avoiding the moronic comments section) had our head coach down as Shote.
Reminds me of Bob Monkhouse's routine on his show. He used to have people throw news items from papers on the stage and make jokes from the content. One he picked up was about Nelson's Column and another was about Saddam Hussein. Monkhouse said "They have a lot in common. Nelson was an admiral with only one eye.
