I too was born here... in Hull that is... about a couple of hundred yards fron The Kingston...in a 'one up & one down' with my 2 brothers sitting on the stairs waiting to go to bed in the one & only bedroomnd I haven't been outside Hull for more than 3 weeks since!!I think it's a mistake to think EVERYONE is on Mudcat... my mum isn't!... yet.

I too went to the Bluebell... folk Union one, in those days... as did my big brother Peter... 'Trog' he did monologues ...that was where all this began for me

A few weeks ago I was in the Bluebell and went up to the room used by Folk Union One ... it seemed much smaller.... and now has 2 pool tables in it.... it was empty ... except for the ghosts of so many voices!!! The street with the museums... and Durty Nellies is the High street.
Hull is a very friendly place... and does have music... lots of it
