After much soul searching my wife and I have decided to divorce. It hasn’t been an easy decision but we agree that it will be the best thing for both of us, and, in the long run, the children too. There is so much to consider now that the decision has been made it was time to consult a family solicitor. I have consulted www.familysolicitorshull.co.uk and they have been fantastic.

A new milkshake bar has just opened in our local town of Hull and my two children love it. They have started going there with friends. The only problem is that it is costing me a fortune, so I had the bright idea to start making milkshakes at home. I have some great kitchen blenders and they make the perfect milkshakes.

I have recently bought some new business premises in Hull. They are somewhat run-down, which is why I got them for such a good price. I have a vision for the premises, which should be amazing once complete. However, I am no architect and I now need an architect to help me turn my vision into a reality. A networking contact has put me in touch with www.charteredarchitectshull.co.uk Read the rest of this entry »
We’re all guilty of either missing or being too late in cancelling an appointment with a dentist in Hull or doctor in Hull, but I do always try and make sure I give them a call to rearrange. It’s just manners, and the fact that you are wasting people’s time, never mind money.
That’s why it’s pretty shocking to find out the amount of cash East Yorkshire hospital appointment cancellations are costing the NHS.
An article in the Hull Daily Mail claims that 60,000 people will have missed appointments by the coming March if trends continue, and that will equate to £6.5 million!
The Hull and East Riding Hospital Trust has to make savings of £94million anyway over the next 5 years.
The Trust has said that they do of course take into consideration that people cannot make it in at times, or have been unable to let them know for genuine reasons, but its unlikely that the majority of these missed appointments are down to such circumstances – certainly not 60,000 people.
Let’s all save us a little bit of money and make sure we’re on the ball in 2011.
It’s certainly a white winter. Schools across the country are closing their doors, leaving the country littered with children in bobble hats and snowman constructions on every street corner.
As is to be expected, they’re having the time of their lives treating passersby to a snowball or two and sliding down hills in dustbin lids. It really does make me wish I was back at school – or not at school as the case may be!
You only have to turn on the TV or open the newspaper to see that the country is in panic and the winter weather is causing chaos.
But when I read an article in the Hull Daily Mail about the hard working people of Hull I was very proud. Not to be defeated they are making every effort to ensure that the frosty conditions and a little bit of the white cold stuff doesn’t stop the world from moving round.
They kept things business as usual, despite the heavy snow, ensuring communities were looked after, Hull care homes were tended to and Hull schools were opened. They also cleared snow from roads and carried out shopping for elderly residents.
Even the Hull postmen managed to brave the frost and deliver the post – not sure I’d be able to do that myself!
I have to say, for us girls there’s nothing worse than wearing that gorgeous pair of heels, or sandals, only to show off unkempt feet.
I actually love a good pedicure and you can always keep your feet in tip top condition by taking a trip to a local chiropodist or podiatrist in hull – but when I read an article about this new craze of fish friendly foot care I was intrigued.
Obviously, it’s hardy the most normal of sights to see on a typical visit, three ladies sat in a row with their feet each in a fish tank – but that’s what you should expect if you were to visit ‘Fab Foot Spa’ in Hull.
Visitors dip their feet into two fish tanks, containing around 150 little swimmers, where they nibble away at all the hard skin for around 15 minutes.
The Hull Daily Mail news article discusses how students from Hull University were the first to try out the new treatment and I must admit, they certainly look happy in the photo – although I hope you would with 300 fish tickling you feet….
My electrical business was really taking off a while ago and the work we were getting in was far too much for me and my three colleagues.
I didn’t know any other electricians who would be able to put me in touch with people who could take on some more work and, to be honest, my company had built up such a good reputation I wanted to know I was getting good people for the job.
A girl’s wedding day is the biggest and most exciting day of their lives. Fact.
And possibly the most exciting part of the day is the dress. Well, the dress and the shoes and the veil and the jewellery and everything else which goes towards making the bride the most important part of the day.
When my boyfriend proposed six months ago I was the happiest girl in the world. My best friend and I immediately began scouring the internet and magazines looking for the perfect dress for both of us.
I have never looked forward to completing the business accounts. I can’t say I have a brain for maths, so I have always tried to forget my most hated time when the tax returns must be dealt with. So I came to the decision to ask Tax Advice Hull to help me. Their tax advice and tax planning services will mean that I can forget about tax returns. Read the rest of this entry »
We are at that time of year when arguments are starting in homes about the highly contentious issue of the central heating! More often than not there’s a camp wanting the heating on and a second group doing all they can to keep it off. One friend I have (a man) who installed a pretend thermostat and hid the real thermostat only to be changed by him! It’s often around this time of year that boilers start to falter. That’s when we require a reliable boiler repairs company. For me that’s Boiler Repairs in Hull. Read the rest of this entry »
