Bypassblade Posted November 20, 2013 Share Posted November 20, 2013 Well done Hull. They need some help and this is a good way of getting an influx of cash. Spend it wisely and good luck to them. Got to say I agree, Hull is lets say not the most desirable of places, high unemployment; lets hope it kick starts them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shanes teeth Posted November 20, 2013 Share Posted November 20, 2013 Last time I went to Hull was a couple of years ago to get the ferry to go on holiday to France.There were several advertising hordings that we passed on the way into Hull proclaiming "Hull-Zebrugge ferry,The best night out in Hull" That doesn't say much about the delights available in Hull,does it?

Anna B Posted November 20, 2013 Share Posted November 20, 2013 (edited) Got to say I agree, London is the be all and end all according to all the media. Indeed. It's becoming a serious problem, and unless something is done about it, it will end in disaster. That's why awards like this are important.

The only windmill I can think of in Hull is the one on the Holderness Road, bit of a funny way of getting to Hull from Sheffield if you're going that way frank.

I find Hull more pleasing on the eye, as a city centre, than Sheffield. We may mock Hull but at least they got city of culture, unlike Sheffield. Remember what happened to that bid?!

If folk in Sheffield slag off Hull that won the City of Culture title, it doesn't say much for places like Sheffield which didn't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
