Salty Spoonful

 Ayup Folk,  Bringing the vibes today as we approach the first one-dayer of the season - the short hop over the Bridge to Neener Neener Land. For fam like me who love the Hull accent, a day trip to the land of Kerka Kerla is a top excursion from the craphouse of Lincolnshire. So lets have a look at the cool stuff going down at this event:                                                                            Hullish for "Pope" is "Perp".

But once you get used to the weather (not good), the very dry sense of humour, the excellent food, and a sense that your always being just a tiny bit careful about choosing words that describe issues of faith and nation, you will have a good time. It will be "good craic". Dont try and buy crack to get craic.  What Went Down In The B-Town Beatdown? So, my friend and I went for a long weekend of toy soldiers. In a youtube preview of the event, my faction choice got a bit of a slagging off .
