Sussed!
ok heres a few ideas for pub crawls-All pubs with a colour in their name, Green Bricks, White Lion, Silver Cod etc etc etc

All pubs with animal names ie Polar Bear, White Horse, Red Lion, Whittinton & Cat etc etc etc

All pubs with numbers in name ie Three Tuns, Five Ways etc etc etc

All pubs with a session on at that time, [best night for this is Tuesday, loads of sesions then, or wednesday, you should play a tune, or sing a song in each one, [kareoke does not count, has to be a proper song or tune session, karryoke is shite]

Bev road 20, aka the bev 20, you should start at hull city centre, go along Beverley Road, drinking 1 pint in each of the 20 pubs on thr main road, you can stop for a kebab at Falcons, its about 3/4 of the way.

plenty others if anyones intrested, [i like a drink].

How about a game of snooker? One in White Harte, one in Red Lion, one in Black Boy, one in Red 'ell, one in Blue 'eaven...I'm not sure where you could sink a pink since the Earl de Grey shut!

Doing a 'Bev' is getting real hard now with all the extra pubs down Beverley Road. And our old one, a drink in each of the pubs within the City Walls is much more difficult as well.

In the seventies I answered an advert in Sounds Music paper for a penpal....(yeah sad maybe, but exciting at 14yrs old.) It was from a guy called Phil who lived in Hull and he mentioned Zappa in the ad, so I thought aha a kindred spirit.

I lied about my age, told him I was 18 ( God only knows why.)We corresponded back and forth for about a year and even exchanged photies...me trying to look all grown up and sophisticated in a Woolies photo booth. Anyway, he was coming to London for a gig, and we arranged to meet under a stone lion in Trafalgar Square.

At the last minute I bailed out and stood him up, from a mixture of nerves and terror.I never wrote again, and being phoneless at the time, knew he couldn't get in touch to say, "Oi, where the hell were you?". I felt awful, he seemed so genuine, had long gingery hair.

So Phil from Hull was lovely, sorry Phil.

Shall we have a practice this Saturday Les. i'm sure Janet would be willing and if Duncan & Eileen are around they wont miss out on a pint or gallon. As you know real ale pubs are my preference so hows about starting 7ish in Minerva then around old town to include Blue Bell, Olde White Hart, George, 3 John Scotts and Black Boy (Hull's CAMRA pub of the Year 2003). Also we could have a practice training run later this week on a small sector of Bev Rd, Gardners, Zac Pearsons & St Johns. Fancy it?

Subject: RE: BS: Stuff about Hull
From: Les from Hull
Date: 27 Jan 04 - 07:24 PM

We could do that. I've been laid up proper poorly wi' a bad back, but I should be right for Saturday. Maggie is being healthy this weekend, but we could pop in en passant and check out the band.

So that's 7 o'clock in the Minerva then everybody. Perhaps The Equine Pugilists might join us for a little social neckoil in there or Black Boy or somewhere.

Who else is coming?

jOhn from Hull

If everybody is so good in Hull (folk singing wise - we won't talk about football :-)), why don't you all get in a big bus and come down to the Market Rasen Folk Club one Friday evening and show us what you are made of.

Floor spots still available for Friday 9th April 8:00 pm and Friday 23rd April 8:00 pm.

I know everybody is kind and generous up there and would be willing to show us your talents for nowt. :-)

Maybe we could even have a Humberside versus Lincolnshire folk competition one time at Market Rasen to see who are the best artists.

Cheers
Les from Market Rasen.

Its a mile from the racecourse. The social club even do functions especially for the races.

So if there is a race on the Saturday you would come down on the Friday sleep in a cardboard box overnight and then go to the races on the Saturday.

Follow this link. if you come from the race course towards market Rasen along the red road, when you hit the orange road, the Folk Club is pretty near to there.

jOhn - people who are related usually have their last names the same rather than their first names, so I'm perhaps not related to anyone in the dried fruit shop. On the other hand, of course, I may be related to you.

Les - thanks for the offer. But you said 'all'. That would make it a very big bus.

You could all come in your campers etc or bring your tents and camp at the racecourse. That way you could come to the folk club and then watch the racing the next day!!!!

if it all comes out, your knackered mate, the News Of The world will be after you!

"Les from hull , exclusive, big story here, local folkie has numerous love childs etc"

Is kate rusby any relation of yours?
Les-were were you 30 years ago?

jOhn, is there a [jhon] from Hull also? Or is this just one of your pseudonyms?

jOhn, you mentioned the "person's from Hull" above. This is a burning question asked, but not answered, before: Since there is a Les from Hull, is there a More from Hull?

Anyway, I do look forward to "More from Hull", as in "These Are The Days Of Our Lives" or "As The Hull Turns"

I am totally confused now.
Les from Hull are you related to me Les from Market Rasen.
When somebody says Les, do they mean Les From Market rasen or Les from Hull or is there another Les as well.

Now jOhn and Les Hull, have you managed to sort out what you are doing on the april 23rd or the May the 21st. You could all come by boat singing "When the boat comes in" or "row row row the boat" or "Michael of Hull row the boat ashore".

What a wonderful woman Olive is and, of course her observations are absolutely accurate about our beautiful city except for one small point. Eddie tried to escape without her. Regardless of his appearance Sir jOhn is a fine person with a heart of gold and is one of the few fans of hWb plus he likes guinness. A fine quality in any man. Gordon, puffs are acceptable in the Polar Bear pub on Spring Bank. It also has live music and mud wrestling.
