    I quite like Hull actually! I like the shopping centre, and some of the pubs. And they way they say 'fern curls' instead of 'phone calls'! It's cute!!

    I love Hull, even though I'm originally from Bolton *yeeeeaaaahhhhh* but I really like it here and plan to stay for a while. I don't have the accent though, hung onto my lovely lancashire accent, eh up chuck.:D

    I'm from Manchester, but OH is from Sheffield - lovely the way he says ' roger Muuoorr'. Plus now DD has started saying 'eh up mummy' which he finds hilarious. Teaching a 2 year old his vile Yorkie ways - next she'll be calling it a bread-cake...it's a bap.....
    This year I'm getting organised once and for all, and going to buy a house with my wonderful other half. And that' s final!
