Sutton Road Selection


In Hull if you're out when the postman tries to deliver a package then it's sent to the Malmo Road sorting office and you can either have it redelivered on another day or you can go pick it up yourself. So it was that, with nothing better to do last week, we found ourselves on a number 7 bus heading towards the untold delights of Sutton Road and thereabouts. The place we had to go to was on a small industrial estate where the roads are all Scandinavian cities, Copenhagen, Oslo, Stockholm and so on; there's even a Narvick Road ( ? ). Even with such fine names however an industrial estate is, I'm afraid, just an industrial estate and fairly dull at that. Best bit the was bridge leading back home ... 

Margot had the camera, I just went along for the ride.

Get your kicks ...


This route 66 goes not from Chicago to Santa Monica but "from central Manchester to Spurn Head via BradfordLeedsYorkBeverley, and Kingston upon Hull". A kind of scenic version of the M62. Oh, and I am afraid you'll have to ride a bike or walk. Well it says it goes to Spurn Head but later on the page says that actually it stops at Saltend (I imagine just by  the BP chemical works, that's oh so pretty!). Ah but  the romance of cycling from Manchester to Hull is still there; isn't it?

Keep Britian Tidy


Oh yes, it's a reminder to keep the the place tidy and well they can't even spell their own country right ... they meant well I suppose.

Margot spotted this delight.
