Kingston City?

So I live in Hull City, or as it is officially known, Kingston Upon Hull. It seems the naming convention for Hull isn't like other places; Stoke on Trent is known as Stoke and Newcastle Upon Tyne known as Newcastle. Yet Kingston Upon Hull is known as Hull, not Kingston.

Then again, Hull isn't like other places. It is possible that not many of you have heard of Hull, which seems to be the case for many people who live outside of Yorkshire. Hull used to be a very important port in the UK, but 95% of it was bombed during World War 2. I've lived here for just over 4 years now, and you'd think that this place just never recovered; the average reading age is 7, 1 in 5 are on benefits, it was voted the worst place to live in 2005 and some guy somehow recently failed to rob William Hill while armed with sellotape and some plastic tubes. He even had the sense to dump the makeshift firearm in a nearby alley.

I'd originally hoped that I wouldn't end up in Hull after finishing my studies here, but I stumbled across a job here and I do actually quite like it so for now, although they say home is where the heart is, for me home is now Hull.

Welcome

Hello and welcome to my blog. I'm a self confessed Arnie fan, hence the username and this is my first attempt at a blog. I wanted to create this for 2 reasons; firstly to have some sort of record/memories of things I have done, and secondly to share them with you. I don't particularly plan on having a set theme for this, however I have a wide range of interests including sports, music, video games and travel so these are likely to have a lot of influence on my blog. I hope you enjoy reading my future posts, and for now, enough about me and more about you guys!

Firstly, I would just like to get to know you. I'm going to ask you a bunch of questions, and I would like them answered immediately.

Who is your daddy, and what does he do?
