My name is Steve and I would like to add my own very brief but personal memories of your lovely town of Hull.
It all started with a magical night club meeting with a very special lady who lived in Hull, but who was visiting a friend in my home town of Bolton.

It really was love at first sight with Lesley, that Saturday night and we met again on the Monday Bank holiday before she returned home to Hull. After that, I spent most weekends travelling over to Bilton, to enjoy many romantic and passionate moments with her. Our own very special times were spent eating out at the Sailmakers pub and then walking along the estuary path behind, occasionally stopping to steal kisses along the way.
In particular we liked to visit leonardo's Italian Cafe in Princess Quay, where we regularly chatted over a coffee and slices of garlic bread, is it still there I wonder?

Saturday evening was always a party night down in the old and new town and usually met up with her crazy friends in the likes of Lloyds. The docks, with their many pubs were a great place to spend a cold Winters day, strolling hand in hand and simply enjoying each others company.
Sadly our relationship all ended after just a few short months, but both Lesley and the wonderful town of Hull will always hold a very special place in my heart.

Fiction - Telling Lies by Nicholas Boldock
|
|
At half past five Harry arranged all the papers on his desk into neat piles, as he always did before going home. He shoved his pens into the blue plastic desk tidy and shut down his PC. He performed this same ritual every evening, did it automatically, even unconsciously. He felt overjoyed to be finally going home - the days seemed to be getting longer and longer and longer - even though home, to Harry, was only marginally more bearable than work.

Holidays
- Simple Holiday Pleasures by Mike
|
|
The time was 7.30 am and I was already awake. Liz stirred as I crept out of
the caravan without waking Alex and Anna. From our elevated position overlooking the bay,
the Med looked as calm as a millpond. The panoramic view was stunning as usual.

Ignored again and again,
Biting wind chills his bones,
People rush to their warm homes.

Music Reviews - Turismo, Hull Adelphi, 29th September by Albert Dukes.
|
|
Being a member of Turismo must make for a busy life; What with running what is easily the best looking and informative website of Hull's bands, giving seemingly endless interviews and press releases to the Hull Daily Mail - they're also the most written about band in the locality, too.
Add to that the fact that they've recently lost a guitarist/vocalist and have introduced a fair bit of new material in their live set

Articles - Is Hull really No.1 Crap Town?
|
|
By Jane Foster
As you may have seen in the media, Hull has been voted top of the list of the 50 crappest towns to live in, within the UK.
If I may point out from the beginning, without being pedantic, that Hull is not a town but a city - therefore it is not eligible for this title anyway. But for the sake of argument I'll carry on.
