    People on spice and opioids are relatively harmless I’ve found. It’s arseholes on coke in the likes of Welly, Old Town and the Avenues on Friday and Saturday nights you have to look out for. A group of meatheads with sleeve tats wearing skinny jeans and boat shoes are more likely to ruin your night on the Avenues than some poor bastard high on spice or smack imo.

    I have been approached by both the parties. I did dabble with the local labour party, joined them, attended meetings etc and they even sent me on a weekend leadership course to Derbyshire. But the deeper I got the more I turned away from them. We see and hear a lot from the libs and labour councillors in the run up to local elections and then we don't hear or see them again until they are up for re-election. I have a problem with that. So to answer your question, never say never.

    have to say I have no idea of what its like down there now. I hear it's more rowdy and stuff. but I have not lived in the city now for 25 years. when me and a mate first moved out of home in 91/92 we had an attack flat on westbourne ave near the roundabout with the fountain. it was a great time to be down there. loved it down there then.

    It's nowhere near as bad as the media are making out and still one of the better areas in the city. The facilities are probably a lot better now then they were 25 years ago, certainly more bars and restaurants and most are pretty decent. Princes Avenue rose in popularity when City were on the march to the Premier League, then like the club, when we dropped out the people thinned out on Prinny Avenue too. Couple of places shut down, others changed hands, just the usual stuff.
    It is basically anti social behaviour, pissheads and druggies wandering about, begging, pissing in doorways etc and generally making an arse of themselves. If we saw a fraction of the police and police vans patrolling the area that we see on a matchday at city the area would seem a lot safer to those who are genuinely worried.

    Agree, I think Prinny Ave will always be popular as its such a nice road. I had a mooch around there only a couple of weeks ago to see the music mural and it was as pleasant as ever, families enjoying the sun in Pearson Park and a stunning red Ferrari parked up by The Greek restaurant. Definitely still a favourite corner of Hull.

    I was sat on a bench in Pearson Park earlier and there was some sort of drumming session going on.

    You know, Tom Tom's and that.

    I liked it a lot, until I realised the beat was the same, over and over.

    I really wanted to go get my saxophone and join in, but then I remembered I don't own a saxophone and couldn't play it if I did.

    Prinny Ave and the all the Avenues are a brilliant place to live.
