You'll find a few people eager to greet you here. Or else you will hear the constant Mudcat Call 'Can someone fix my blue clicky?' There was a roll-call recently and I seem to recall Hull was well represented. Enjoy. Beware of .... oh, you'll find out! |

Subject: RE: BS: New Member-rambling rose From: Celtic Soul Date: 13 Apr 02 - 12:12 PM Welcome!! Wow! How big *is* Hull?? Or is it that everyone who lives there is musically gifted?? In any case, the more the merrier. Welcome aboard! |

Subject: RE: BS: New Member-rambling rose From: greg stephens Date: 13 Apr 02 - 12:24 PM Welcome Rambling Rose. Why the name, anything todo with canals? And Celtic Soul, dont worry about Yorkshire. its a place on the other side of the pennines. Probably no Celts or Soul.Nobody knows what goes on over there,but God has very farsightedly put some mountains in the way to keep the inhabitants where they belong. |

Subject: RE: BS: New Member-rambling rose From: smallpiper Date: 13 Apr 02 - 06:45 PM Okay so where is she? Welcome anyway and when can we expect to see you at the Hase session (which is this coming Tuesday in case John form Hull don't remind you)? The correct name for people who live in Hull is probably "Yorkies" but those that live in the area around Hull refer to them as "Them" or "that lot" and the reason that there are so many catters who live here is simply because we are computer liturite and in between work and sessions have bugger all else to do. So there you have it. Welcome once again Rambling-Rose John |

Subject: RE: BS: New Member-rambling rose From: Paul from Hull Date: 13 Apr 02 - 07:06 PM *G* Greg, we HAVE got our own Local Computer 'system'. Its cr*p but we are stuck with it.... That must be why some of us spend so much time in Pubs, & fortunately the good ones all have music in. Having said that, I dont seem to get to any sessions, but I certainly should...especially if Rambling Rose is as wild & windswept as all that.....*G* People from 'Ull tend to be called, by others, Cod'eads, even though the Fishing Industry is now long gone. Celtic Rose, 'Ull isnt all that big...just under 350,00 as best I recall, but thats quite big in the UK....used to be 10th largest city in England (I think it was just England, rather than in the whole of the UK) but is now somewhere between the 12th & the 15th largest. Strangely, except in folky circles, no-one has heard of it, or knows where it is. ...& Gareth, thats WHITE rose....we will have no red ones here, thankyou.......*G*

Subject: RE: BS: New Member-rambling rose From: Les from Hull Date: 25 Jun 02 - 01:43 PM Sorry to have missed this first time round, but I'm happy to welcome the rambling one again. The 'correct' term for a person from Hull is a Hullensian, though I suppose we could be Kingstonians as well. For those who don't know the correct name for this fair city is Kingston upon Hull and has been since the end of the twelth century. I have, though, heard people from Hull called many things. |

Subject: RE: BS: New Member-rambling rose From: rambling rose Date: 25 Jun 02 - 02:10 PM Hello everyone!

So thank you now......I look forward to being part of what I know is a crazy but lovely band of people. |

Subject: RE: BS: New Member-rambling rose From: oombanjo Date: 25 Jun 02 - 05:47 PM WELCOME RAMBLING ROSE. Thats the name I called my ex girlfriend many many years ago. I say ex as she once heard me telling a friend why I called her a Ramblig Rose.(Brilliant against a wall, but no good in a bed.) and for that, I will duck when first we meet, then ask forgiveness, and buy you a drink. grovel grovel. |
|
Subject: RE: BS: New Member-rambling rose From: rambling rose Date: 25 Jun 02 - 05:50 PM Thanks for that one oombanjo.....I forgive very easily especially if you buy me a pint |

Subject: RE: BS: New Member-rambling rose From: oombanjo Date: 25 Jun 02 - 05:57 PM Brill you'r on, hope you enjoyed it, its the horticulturalist in me you know |
|
Subject: RE: BS: New Member-rambling rose From: Amos Date: 25 Jun 02 - 06:46 PM RR: The only song I know (being a culturally deprived Yankee boy) on the topic of your name was a smash hit in 1962:
Ramblin' Rose So I thought I might finally find out! :>) A |
|
Subject: RE: BS: New Member-rambling rose From: brid widder Date: 25 Jun 02 - 06:58 PM I wonder if the name means Rose gets all her pleasure 'the hard moorland way'...or if it's more to do with oombanjo's knee trembler explanation... will we ever know?... welcome Rose... and about time too... wot about my kiss me quick hat? |
|
Subject: RE: BS: New Member-rambling rose From: Rt Revd Sir jOhn from Hull Date: 25 Jun 02 - 07:28 PM Re Beverley- The bits you didn't go to were brilliant as well !. |
|
Subject: RE: BS: New Member-rambling rose From: Oaklet Date: 26 Jun 02 - 03:07 AM Welcome RR. Have you been warned about submitting drivel by a guest yet? I think that Hull is under represented here. Your membership will help to restore a regional imbalance! Enjoy yourself and welcome again. |
|
Subject: RE: BS: New Member-rambling rose From: mooman Date: 26 Jun 02 - 03:56 AM Welcome to the madness rambling rose! Do not feed the trolls! And 'Spaw, yes...so far as I have been able to ascertain everyone in Hull IS a member of Mudcat! All the best mooman |
|
Subject: RE: BS: New Member-rambling rose From: fat B****rd Date: 26 Jun 02 - 05:19 AM Hey there RR !! Amos, there was a Jerry Lee Lewis B-side called Ramblin'Rose which I'm sure wasn't the slushy one. |
|
Subject: RE: BS: New Member-rambling rose From: rambling rose Date: 26 Jun 02 - 12:11 PM Hello brid widder - Your hat is here next to your earrings :-) and hello to anyone else out there.........thanks for the song bits........lovely stuff. Re where I get all my pleasure I probably shouldnt say here but I certainly get a lot of my pleasure "the hard moorland way" I am of course very happy to redress the balance as I am sure that there are only one or two members from this wonderful city ......maybe everyone else should move here?? I dont know about drivel - rambling on yes! And what on earth are trolls and I wouldnt know what they eat anyway. |
|
Subject: RE: BS: New Member-rambling rose From: Willa Date: 26 Jun 02 - 12:17 PM Spooky; went into a local shop this afternoon and the music playing was RR! Could be the version fat mentioned. I thinkwhat I heard was "Everyone knows that you can't make a rose into a clinging vine"- seems appropriate. |

Subject: RE: BS: New Member-rambling rose From: Amos Date: 26 Jun 02 - 01:22 PM RR: Trolls in cyberspace are those who post communications -- often anonymously -- for the sole purpose of causing a stir, spinning others up, and muddying the waters. Their sole joy is in creating effects, usually negative ones -- they don't ask to get answers, they don't communicate to acheive understanding; they post to get a rise. They dine on human decency trust and tend to make all sorts of ill-feelings rise up IF they are fed by responding to their remarks. Like many kinds of predators, if they get no reaction they slink off to dine elsewhere. You will learn over time how to recognize their puerile manipulations and how to refrain from tossing them small bits of heart and mind; they are emotional scavengers who can be counted on to come back for more once they think there's more to be had. Hope this helps. A
