    Probably.

    The daughters getting married this year, she's definitely worried about what I've got on her and what's going to come up in the speech.

    Well I've lived all over the uk from Campbeltown to Wiltshire.

    As a kid growing up, you soon learnt the best way to fit in was to sound like everyone else.

    Took me a while to stop mimicking someone when talking to them. Was always done subconsciously. I was also very good at it.

    Only constant for me has been the Ull one but certainly now it's just certain words.

    I'm touched you made the effort to type that.

    Especially as I said that I don't do it anymore, so, no.

    Years ago someone I knew used to work as a musician on cruise ships. Had a great time doing a number of round the world cruises. He always said to me that if I was to go on a cruise go on an Americam one rather than a British one. On Cunard or P and O you were assessed and categorised the minute you opened your mouth and spoke by the British staff on board. Apart from a few East Coast intellectual types harder to categorise Americans, difficult to tell if someone was a millionaire businessman or someone on a one off trip of a lifetime so on the American ones everyone was treated the same. Things will have altered somewhat with the cruise lines employing so many nationalities but still holds true for the snobby types allocating tables etc.

    It is blinkered decisions like this one which make me pleased that we are nothing to do with Hull City Council......

    It's not just the elected officers, the plans were roundly marked for rejection by those paid employees of the planning department.....

    The cafe could easily have been given a short term planning permission of 2-3 years to see how it worked/fitted in.....after all a shipping container is easily removed if found not to be an asset
