'Ull is an 'orrible place, but 'Ell is no bed of roses either. I fink 'Ell might be worse, but that depends on where jOhn from 'Ull is at any given moment. As 'e is in 'Ull right now (I assume), it might be that 'Ull is worse off at the moment. It's 'ard to say. Mr Satan, I fink you ought to go wif "Beelzebub" because it sounds so bleedin' UGLY! And I don't believe for one minute that you 'ave not been to 'Ull! Don't make laugh. You've got yer greasy 'ands right in the middle of most of wot goes on in 'Ull, in my opinion. - Mrs Olive Whatnoll |

Actually Halifax is a bit of a shithouse but this fred is about 'ull and 'ell. 'ull must be worse cos 'ell is an hypothetical state of mind and therefore does not exist in reallity. Ergo as it does not exist in reallity we have nothing to compare it to, nobody has ever come back from 'ell and said " that was like being in 'ull " So as 'ull gets more slagging off than any other place it must be worse than 'ell. eric [ in Halifax ] |

16 Jan 05 - 04:56 PM (#1380071) Subject: RE: BS: Hull or Hell - Which is worse? From: GUEST RE: "Dalesman's liturgy" Hull - Those taken up for vagrancy, drunkeness or otherwise thrown into the local lock-up were liable (thanks to the local magistrates) for impressmernt into the Navy at times of a 'Hot Press'. Halifax - The town of Halifax employed an early form of Guillotine ('The Halifax Gibbet'), IIRC they were fairly swift in its employment (I seem to recall reading somewhere of thieves taken on one market day and topped on the next). Hell - I'll leave that to others. Fom Hell, Hull and Halifax, Good Lord Deliver me.

17 Jan 05 - 05:56 PM (#1380904) Subject: RE: BS: Hull or Hell - Which is worse? From: GUEST,Veronica Rutledge Hull is worse than Hell. I can vouch for that, because I have been to Hull. It's a dreadful place. Anything bad you can say about a city can be said about Hull. It's filthy, depressing, and crime-ridden. Its denizens must rank among the very worst dregs of humanity. At first I was disturbed at the thought of how an immense tidal wave could at any moment come off the North Sea and annihilate Hull, but then I got to thinking about Hull, and I read this thread, and it became plain to me that if Hull were wiped out in an instant, it could only benefit the rest of the British Isles. Hull is unspeakably awful. It's like a nightmare, frozen in time. It's like a thousand days spent eating cold oatmeal while watching the teletubbies! And you know why it's definitely worse than Hell? Because Hell doesn't exist, that's why! If Hell did exist, they would be jealous of Hull and would probably relocate there as soon as they could bribe the city council and get the place rezoned. * Veronica * |

I thought Hull was full of Ye Olde traditional public bars where people still stood around pianos singing Danny Boy with sawdust underfoot. Where everybody knows your name and can tell what you drink by the cut of your jib etc. Without the big screen loud hailers that now seem to permeate the watering holes of Merry Old England and farther afield. Surely you are not going to shatter my illusion of an untouched and unspoiled corner of civilisation where traditional folk music and quality ale await the weary traveller. Regards. Sidewinder. |
