Commercial Break

They really couldn't put a retail park anywhere else than on Commercial Road.

Unlucky for some

Warehouse No. 13 was built in 1857 for the Hull Dock Company and converted into luxury flats to coincide with the opening of the Hull Marina. 

Red and white

Memento mori

The Victorians seemed to have far grander funereal monuments than is the style these days. This fine angel stands in Spring Bank cemetery and is one of only a few to have survived the ravages of vandals and the Council's strange desire to flatten grave stones on grounds of "health and safety".

Geese in flight

They say a poor workman blames his tools so I'm blaming my camera's delay for the slight blur not to say lack of focus on these shots.  

Parky

The cold of last year seems to have gone for now leaving a frozen park lake and lots of juicy reflections.

But is it art?

No, not some modernist sculpture on display in Hull's East Park, this is an outdoor gym. At a cost of £40,000 the NHS has provided those who wish to make fools of themselves in public a generous gift.  There are many obese people in Hull and this was intended to provide them with free facilities for exercise. Maybe they are shy as I have yet to see anybody actually use it.
Amazingly the equipment is still unvandalised after 6 months.
