I haven't won an award since playing the recorder at school! Glad that someone notices and appreciates my blog. Thank you very much. Just called hubby in to have a look at my name on the roll of honour on Frances blog! I will have fun choosing my seven recipients, and I'll get back to you on that one.<BR/><BR/>Thank you Sweet Irene and Laurie for your comments about my photos. Between you , me and the gatepost (and Frances will back me up on this one) my home city of Hull has the reputation of being a bit of a dump, and has the lowest educational standards and one of highest rates of poverty in England. I refer you to early pictures I have taken to show the other side of Hull. But I have enjoyed taking these pictures because it just goes to show that if you look closely, eeverywhere has lovely places, and people do make an effort to improve their environment and Hull is indeed improving.Bevhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04676624646066417262noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1600695197888473919.post-26962665795114666572007-09-17T10:10:00.000-07:002007-09-17T10:10:00.000-07:00Bev - you've got another award on my blog... ;-)Bev - you've got another award on my blog... ;-)lebanesahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07988892248196307424noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1600695197888473919.post-13573544954482147222007-09-16T17:38:00.000-07:002007-09-16T17:38:00.000-07:00that IS beautiful! judging by the pictures, you're...that IS beautiful! judging by the pictures, you're very lucky to be there. everything has much more sophistication and age than here.<BR/><BR/>not a mickeyd's in sight.lauriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18055442432266567561noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1600695197888473919.post-2780904382852083722007-09-16T16:55:00.000-07:002007-09-16T16:55:00.000-07:00You take great pictures of Hull, so you should be ...You take great pictures of Hull, so you should be awarded the title "First Citizen" or something.

We always look at other countries with envy, but in fact most places have pretty areas, parks and so on and loads have interesting and attractive old buildings. We damaged the look of things ourselves with re-building and trying to be modern from the 60s - ending up with all that stained grey concrete. And of course, as you say - getting bombed isn't too good for historical buildings LOLlebanesahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07988892248196307424noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1600695197888473919.post-47048173051288031762007-09-15T18:10:00.000-07:002007-09-15T18:10:00.000-07:00You could have fooled me.
