Where will it all end though?

If the UK starts to sink at the top end,it will tilt up at the bottom and all us Southeners will end up sliding into unknown territory.

And who will win the " Gis a fag" wars then?

McFat is scottish... although at the moment he honours Sheffield not Hull with his ample presence.

The population of chubbys in Hull did increase last year when Beardy came to live here... that'll be it... and the beer...Oh yes and the contentment... I can't exclude myself from this particular statistic... but you can't get too much of a good woman!

Good Diet Conclusion
Here's the final word on nutrition and health.

It's a relief to know the truth after all those conflicting medical studies.

1. The Japanese eat very little fat and suffer fewer heart attacks than the British or Americans.   
2. The French eat a lot of fat and also suffer fewer heart attacks than the British or Americans.
3. The Japanese drink very little red wine and suffer fewer heartattacks than the British or Americans.
4. The Italians drink excessive amounts of red wine and also suffer fewer heart attacks than the British or Americans.
5. The Germans drink a lot of beer and eat lots of sausages and fats and suffer fewer heart attacks than the British or Americans.

CONCLUSION:

Eat and drink what you like.

Speaking English is apparently what kills you.

I always think it pays to be positive-Since no-one in Hull, in my experience as a bank manager, can be bothered to save for a pension -at least we won't be a drain on the country's finances -as we are all fat drugged illiterate and pregnant before we are 13, we are not likey to live into retirement.

Sooz - yes, and still usable, in a very fine condition. But not so funny as the award winning one at the docks. If I read Fib right, the Ladies must be of the same quality as the Gents. Where else can you read poetry while relieving yourself amidst a real jungle of flowers?

monopoly streets should be High Street, The Land of Green Ginger, Anlubby Rerd, Bevlly Rerd, and Whitefrudgate.

Should also be putting Hull Phone Company, Umber Bridge 9biggest bridge in Hull], The Adelphi, [smart high class pub].


anyway, Hull has just lost one of its titles, Car Crime Capital of Europe is no longer Hull, it is now Leeds.

2 of the big Brother people are from Hull, [the animal rights woman that looks like a bloke, and the hare dresser].

Lots of men from Newcastle come here on buses to shag our young lasses. All the babies are looking like Ant and Dec now and speaking semi-scottish and suppin' brown ale through a tit. Are we losing our identity and are we too fat to do the business ourselves? Can you imagine John and Pauline performing? We've stopped Kings in the past crossing our frontiers. Why not now?

It's serious stuff young jOhn. Only the other day a young lass with a pram was crying her eyes out so I went over to try to console her. 'Are the Social not paying out on ya Luv?' I asked. She said 'No that's not a problem, in fact they've given me extra, just look in that pram.' So I did. 'F--k me I said, the bastard looks like Peter Beardsley!'. Another victim of a Geordie raid on our fair city.

Hull has more fast food take aways than anywhere else per population,
there is a local byelaw that says it is compulsory for the residents of Hull to eat Fish n Chips at least once a week.

Hull has the second highest cat population in the country, I think they came here because of all the fish.

there is about 50,000 fish shops in hull, and about a million cats.
