Devastated...funking Devastated

Say what you want about Hull and it's people I watched a documentary some year's back called head scarf heroes about a group of women who took on the trawler owners about health and safety and won. Showed the true grit of working class folk and what they could achieve if they stuck together.

There aren't enough words to describe my emotions on the terrible news I got yesterday...totally in shock I honestly don't know how I'm going to be able to cope or get through this next week I'm

f**k me there's a few six finger dribblers round here......

When you think nothing could be worse than Hull, just nip into Goole, and Hulll will seem like a veritable paradise........ Cheers.

I didn't think it was a bad place to be honest. Had a couple of nights in Premier Inn there near the Deep, just other side of the river. Spotted otter tracks on the muddy back as we went over the foot bridge into the old town there. Went to a panto, the Deep and a few free museums that were decent too. Street life museum I think one was called. It kept the kids entertained anyway. Not bad around the marina too. Only time I've been other than that was to the old footy ground, Boothferry Park, with the super stags on a cold dark Tuesday night. We did well to get out of there alive I tell you!! Lol..

They certainly don't make them like that anymore. I found it a good documentary if anyone gets chance to watch it and them trawler men were a different breed in what must have been the most dangerous job in the country at the time.
