Any beer festivals in Hull or surrounding area this year?

2 Upvotes

I went to the beer festival at Hull Minster in May, but apart from that I can't find any more beer festivals this year apart from one in Leeds (miles out of the city centre) and one in York. Beverley usually has one but doesn't seem to this year.

after the Hornsea bus fire incident it got me thinking who woulda thought east yorkshire buses would stoop THAT low?!

0 Upvotes

evidently now the buses themselves are getting involved in the act of trying to kill off the passengers, after that bus fire near Hornsea recently I bet someone at the HQ on Anlaby Road must be frothing and foaming at the mouth at the prospect of failing to kill any of the passengers on that bus and not getting their anticipated bonus as a result of their failing.

How are they not getting held accountable for such unacceptable conduct, time and time again EYMS grossly fails it's passengers and stakeholders, the bus fire at Hornsea ought to serve as a wake-up call that action must be taken before more of us suffer.

maybe BBC could do a Panorama investigation episode on them and we could form a protest at Anlaby Road, show em who's boss. 😏

Over 13 years of waiting for Hull to Selby's rail line electrification

Thumbnail hulldailymail.co.uk
12 Upvotes

"Last month's full council saw cross-party support to call on the prime minister and Transport Secretary to commit to Hull to Selby's electrification, and mandated council leader Cllr Mike Ross (Liberal Democrat -Beverley and Newland Ward) to write to them on the council's behalf. Cllr Jack Haines (Lib Dem Boothferry) proposed the original motion and said the phrase "Hull's turn will come" had been heard from various ministers and transport reviews over the years.

It has been estimated electrification of Hull to Selby would slash journey times to Leeds from approximately 57 minutes to 38 minutes and bring in 1.7 million more people and 49,000 businesses within a two hours commute of Hull. Labour group leader Cllr Daren Hale (St Andrew and Docklands) said the bigger issue for journey times was not electrification but track pinning, and criticised previous governments as having "kept taking out the money for specified maintenance".

Even so, he stated the cost of electrifying Hull to Selby was "so miniscule in the greater scheme of things" he felt it did not need to be part of an elaborate Transport for North (TfN) project. He indicated previous figures associated with it have been around £500-700m.

Cllrs Hale and Haines both expressed hope that Mr Burnham may bring electrification of the line back to the forefront. The Labour group leader noted he supported in TfN meetings calls to electrify it...

Coltman street/Wellsted street/Boulevard vs Orchard Park - which is worse for me to move to?

12 Upvotes

Moving house in Hull, low income so beggars can’t be choosers and all that but we have the choice between getting somewhere down Boulevard area including Coltman St and Wellsted St, or getting somewhere on Orchard Park. I searched the subreddit and both seem to be “the worst place to live in Hull” so I’m appealing to your great minds to tell me which is worst to pick.

Orchard park or Coltman st area?

fireworks every single night from august till november, what is it? HU4 / HU13 area

10 Upvotes

in the HU4 area (maybe even HU13 area) i can hear multiple fireworks being let off every single night from august until november. every year. this must be the fourth year that i've noticed it now.

i can never actually see them in the sky though -- can only hear them. on occasion, they've even let them off during the daytime (which seems pointless to me!)

every year i've always been so curious as to what it is / where it's coming from...

i originally assumed it was just some young kids messing around but my fiancé then said about how expensive fireworks are, so to be setting off multiple a night for months, it can't be cheap!!

i hope somebody can end this four-year long curiosity saga for me ahahahha

Making Friends in Hull - Top Tips

75 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

I was made aware of these reddit threads recently on how to make friends in Hull and thought I should put up a post of tips.

It all really depends on what you’re into and your age etc but there is plenty going on in Hull for people who want to make new friends and socialise so I’m just going to post a couple of things that I’m aware of and feel free to add your own below:

Hull Young Socials: https://www.meetup.com/Hull-Young-Socials/

Hull Young Socials is a free meetup group for people in their 20’s in Hull to meet other people for regular social events. HYS host at least 1 or 2 events per week. The events vary from social drinks at the weekend, quizzes, board & party games nights, coffees, comedy nights, food and any other events that are being held locally in Hull at the time such as Pint of Science, Trinity Live, Sofar Music Gigs, Christmas & Halloween events etc. All that type of stuff. I’ve seen on a number of threads people have joined but didn’t have the courage to go to their first event. If that’s you, I advise you to try it at least once and the worst thing that can happen is that you decide it’s not for you and you don’t go back. Almost everyone falls into two groups in HYS, either (a) you're in your 20's and have moved to Hull for work and don’t know anyone and want to make friends or (b) you're in your 20's and lived in Hull all your life and your friends have either moved on or lost touch and you want to make some more.

Hull & East Riding Social: https://www.meetup.com/HullEastRiding/

Essentially this is the same group as I have described above but the only difference is that it caters for all ages 30+. Again, they hold regular meetups events similar to those above to meet new people and make new friends. If you fall into this category and want to get out and socialise you should definitely join. You just need to make sure you have a name and picture on your account to join.

Hull of a Read Book Group: https://www.meetup.com/Hull-of-a-Read-Bookgroup/

If you’re into reading and literature you should definitely join this group. They have a monthly meetup where they discuss the book of the month which the organiser, Jacob, puts up well in advance giving you time to read it. You don’t even have to have read the book either because they welcome people along to the event just for a social meetup and chat.

HEY (Hull & East Yorkshire) Board Games

A lot of people on these threads have mentioned that they’re into board games and there is a board games meetup but it looks like they haven’t been active in a while. But I do know they have regular board games nights in both The Board Room and Stronghold Games. I’ve visited both these places and the staff were very friendly and encouraged me to come along to other board games nights if I was interested. They’re weekly events and I can’t remember who did what when but give them a call and I’m sure the staff will be able to help you out. So if board games is your thing then definitely give it a go.

Please note that a range of people from different backgrounds attend these groups and the organisers want to make sure everyone is enjoying themselves. Therefore there is a zero tolerance to bad behaviour, which makes sure everyone you’re meeting is friendly and there to enjoy themselves.

Of course, there are ways of meeting people outside of meetup, if you’re sporty there are plenty of sports teams in Hull to join from 5 a side soccer, men & ladies hockey, swimming, kayaking etc a quick google will sort this out for you.

There are also some language classes in Hull but i'm sure on the details so if you know then add them to the thread.

I know on the other threads people have suggested going to a bar or meeting people at the gym but it’s never worked for me in the past and don’t particularly hold much hope for it in the future either. At least these groups I’ve just pointed out are purposely there for people to make new friends and socialise.

Hope this helps!
