Quote: edinburgh yorkie "I am very proud that my home town has been named as the city of culture,so why is it,that the correct name of the city is not being used,KINSTON UPON HULL.after all,Newcastle is not referred too as TYNE,nor is Stoke refered too as TRENT,so come on hull city council,if you are proud to be the city of culture,use the cities correct name,KINGSTON UPON HULL,it sounds more cultured,than just HULL.'"


Start saying Kingston and most people think of Kingston upon Thames. Frankly there are welcome to the Kingston name - far too royalist. I'd much rather Hull was remembered for telling King Charles to go forth and multiply.

Went to see the wind turbine blade today simply amazing, people everywhere taking photos, standing in amazement etc you simply can't do its size justice in a photograph; another great idea.

Quote: Shirl "I don't think the council could, in their wildest dreams, have imagined that it'd be as popular as it was, particularly on the opening and closing nights. Some teething troubles were to be expected.

Loved the light show, the shop fronts down Whitefriargate, The Deep & Humber Street. The rest I wasn't that enthralled with but each to their own.

Thought there may have been a set up for food/drink stalls like at Humber Street Sesh/Freedom Festival but not sure whether that's the council's doing or not.

Walked past a few cafes that were closed, if I'd been the owner I'd have made sure we were open.'"


We went on Thursday night (4 adults and 2 kids) and were absolutely amazed with everything. We were lucky while going down Whitefriargate as Couplands were open (this was after 8 o'clock) and they were doing hot snacks and hot drinks. Very welcome on a cold night and full marks to the staff (both of them) who were doing a terrific job. We don't live in Hull any longer but we'll certainly be coming in regularly throughout the year to enjoy what, so far, has been brilliant.

Certainly is amazing Pete the sheer size of it. I am proud to say my company were tasked with setting up a weighing system for Siemens in the factory to weigh these things as they come out of production. After spending two full days working alongside two of these in the factory you still cant get a perspective just how big these things are.

Quote: Marcus's Bicycle "It's great to see our City getting some good coverage in the national media, (apart from The Sun's hatchet job).

Although there are things that are far from perfect I'm proud to say I'm from Hull. A lot of people who give Hull a kicking have a pre-conceived bias or have never stepped foot here.'"


Spot on MB. I'm not from Hull, I come from Sheffield for all the home games and most away. Only been a fan since 2011 but from the start fell in love with the city of Hull and its people. It does get negative press no doubt and I get really p'd off now when I hear some comments as you say from people who know nothing about the place. I've gained new friends in the East Stand who've welcomed me with open arms. As an outsider who can't really sing Scotty Taylor he's one of our own I want to say you should have a lot to be proud of. Hull is a great city and the people of East Yorkshire are warm, friendly and honest, you call a spade a spade as we do in Sheffield. Hope this doesn't come across as patronising, its just my honest thoughts.

We're happy to have you in the black n white family . Nice to hear someone from outside hull defend it. And as part of the old faithful you have every right to sing he's one of our own to scotty taylor as far as I'm concerned.

Thanks for that threepennystander and it just proves my point. You dont judge people. From the start I felt a connection and every year more like a family. #Hull and Proud.
