If you knew two people who were arguing over who had the Hull accent you must have worked with two incredibly stupid people that's all I can say

The East v West debate. Which is the posh side of London?

It is the same in most cities and it goes back to the industrial era, the wind generally blows from West to East so the people with money lived in the West because the pollution blew over the Eastern side of the city. It is the same in most cities.

A house in the western suburbs of Hull will sell for around twice as much as an identical property in the Eastern suburbs.

Even the DJ's on local radio take the mick out of East Hull

Not really true that is it they are roughly the same for instance ten years ago I bought 3 houses in west Hull for 8000 each

Probably 11th. December 1983 - you won 36-11.

Didn't realise you'd played at the old ground

Well I couldn't detect any discernible difference in their speech patterns.



I remember it being a very heated discussion though.

Read my post properly I know you will get houses in West Hull cheap. But in the Western suburbs the likes of Kirk Ella and Swanland you will pay twice as much as in the Eastern suburbs

You can't really claim kirkella as west Hull but if you are I agree because my sister lives there and paid about 250 grand and one of my other sisters lives in bilton and paid about 180 grand for similar sized houses

I sadly recall I had to contact the Hull FC Supporters Club lady each time - she of the lollipops - and tell her how many supporters we were bringing (40 -odd sometimes!!) so she could meet our bus to guarantee us safe passage to our seats. Is it insecurity perhaps - having two teams in one small town? Don't like going even now but we'll prob be there on Monday.

Insults? Believe me, that was close to a compliment!

New Zealand isn't as idyllic as people think though is it gutters I don't know were you reside but Auckland is rough as s

hopefully I am gonna be there on Monday dotti
