It's never felt that way when I've visited, but then I tend to go for the old town, which is very handsome and chilled.

Hi Bluto.
I don't exactly live in Hull. I live within a certain radius of it.
I was born and raised in Leeds but always had my father's side of family in hull so I knew it well . It was part of my life.
So recently I moved over to east Yorkshire and one of my kids has settled in Hull and is raising a family there.
Hull, for many reasons , is a big part of my life .
As for what you read in the hull daily mail , well, all I can say is that I was a newsagent for several years and sold the Hull daily mail/ East riding mail , and along with all the other daily national publications , you need to take on board "paper talk" .
There is a true saying that everyone needs to adhere to, which is this ....
"Believe nothing of what you hear , and only half of what you see !!! ".....
As for Hull itself I know it inside and out and me personally , I love it.
If you do consider to move here then you can always pm me with any questions about areas etc .
But just so that we dont get in trouble and to keep it on topic , you could say that I am "rooted in Hull " LOL...
