Space Hopper


It's a toad, of course, but from a different world. This one landed outside the station and is showing the signs of having come into contact with many alien hands.

Siwrengale, Bridlington


This smart crabbing boat is apparently named after the sons of the owner and not some mythical beast of the east Yorkshire coast. There's more, possibly far more than you might want about this boat here.

Fish Quay, Bridlington

Although the public are allowed on to the Fish Quay it is still a working area so you've go to be careful with all the fishing gear that is left  lying around.

Bridlington Harbour

Always a busy little place Bridlington; there are plans for a marina here but then there have been plans for many years and nothing has come of them. There's more about Bridlington here.

Brynmor Jones Library, University of Hull

 You won't hear from me that this is the library that Philip Larkin used to run, no sir, no way.
 I will say that when I was employed by the University, eons ago, this was a great place to pretend to be working and the views from the upper stories are not bad either.
