If you’re budget conscious and need to log on in the city the best place to head is the Hull Central Library on Albion Street. Ask the helpful staff and they should be able to organise a visitors pass to get a short burst of net-time to check your hotmail (bring some ID). It’s also a great place to research anything from local history, local attractions and local events.

 Looks cool, but
broadcasts Soap Operas.
Why?! by Orbital_
Ah yes, Hull City Council in their infinite wisdom, in what has been dubbed the ‘fattest city in the country’ by many a survey, have gone and spent £750,000 on a massive TV screen for the city center in Queen Victoria Sqaure. Instead of highlighting community news or events they're shunted to the side of the screen. Because during the day it basically does exactly what it says on the tin. It shows TV. On a big screen. So lets get this right; fat couch-potato population and you just go and put a bloody-great TV in the city center. Genius eh? Should a big sporting event of major news event be occurring then it is an extremely useful community resource as crowds of people will stop and actually pay real interest, but on a dreary day when it’s left showing BBC1 housewife-programming throughout the day to bemused shoppers passing through the square, it basically only entertains the local vagrants or partners patiently waiting for their other halves.
And all this when the council-sponsored art house cinema called Hull Screen is having to justify its existence to continue funding or face closure. Nice to know local government has its priorities right. Leave a Comment

It's quite far from Colchester, but only a 5-hour train journey via Ipswich and Peterbourough. Not too bad as you get to avoid London that way! Leave a Comment
