Stuck for a Christmas Present? – Think Hull!

I’ve waited until panic is setting in, before offering people from Hull and the East Riding the perfect Christmas present. The lucky receiver definitely won’t have it already, nor will be they be given it by anyone else.

A poetry book about Hull

I know, you hate poetry because it is generally incomprehensible, but supposing there were a thin, full colour, fully illustrated book about Hull, in verse, irreverent, rude, uncompromising and less than a tenner – a lot less than a tenner in fact! Would that change your mind?

  • 33 full colour unusual Hull corners!
  • 13 poems
  • Location notes
  • Photograph notes

Don’t listen to me. Take this link through to Amazon and check the free pages. Any Hull born and bred, will love the wit, crudeness, rudeness etc. of this alternative take on our great and lovely city.

Take a chance. Take Hull for Christmas.

  • Inside – Queen Victoria on the pot.

  • Humber Bridge.
  • Wilmington Bridge.
