    Ive just returned from a friends in Houston, he visited Hull in March.
    He loves the city of Hull, and I mean LOVES the city..
    After I conversed with him and some deep thinking, I have come to the realization that Hull isn't as bad as I kinda made out.
    He went down to London and regretted it heh.
    He also doesn't think the Humber Bridge is as long as the Golden Gate bridge in NYC (I put him right about that).
    He also loved the people, he also wants to go to Durham and up to Scotland.
    overall I am kinda feeling better about this town.

    now I am tired (jet lag) 1st day back and all that, time for a kipp.

    I'm glad you've finally realised how good Hull is, but you still need to do some work on your Geography, the Golden Gate Bridge is 3,000 miles away from New York City.

    Also if your friend is from Houston, any city is an improvement for him!

    The Golden Gate bridge is longer than the Humber Bridge(2737m against 2220m), but the Humber Bridge has a bigger single span(1410m against 1280m).

    We've gone from having the longest span to being down to 7th now, of those above us, three are in China, one in Korea, one in Japan(the longest) and one in Denmark.

    Since when did the Golden Gate Bridge move from San Fransisco to New York?

    A lot of people never appreciate what's on their own doorstep generally.

    It's no wonder he's jet-lagged, Houston to Hull is almost a two hour flight. :emoticon-0112-wonde

    I realise you're a bit "special" but aren't you 34 35. Hardly young. Got your season pass yet?
