Hi John.
I was in Immingham many many times while on the coast, it impressed me so much I can't remember a thing about the place, there again I can't remember much these days about many of the ports I visited.
Cheers Des

####yes commonly known as ming ...ming on the northeast coast....regards cappy

Similarly I would suggest that Grimsby is also suitably named (at least these days)... very grim place.

For some reason the town of Scunthorpe springs to mind.

on a slightly different note,
Dennis are you pulling for the west in the Grey Cup today? years ago we would all here in winnipeg be going to a party to watch it on the TV. but these days what with drinking and driving, no smoking etc. everyone stays at home now. (except those who have tickets for the game).
we shall watch it and pull for the west, (go Edmonton go !!).
some of you may not know what the Grey Cup is so.......it is the equivelent to the F.A. cup final in the UK. only played under Canadian Football Rules, very much like American football. teams are from the East vs. the West of Canada. the venue moves from city to city each year.
this year it is being held in Winnipeg with a nice cool tempreture of -5c. that should keep them hopping.

Hi Keith, As I am a true west coat man. I always think that anyplace east of Vancouver is not west. In fact Vancouver is east of Vancouver Island. [ confused yet!]I did pull for Edmonton.
Stayed home to watch the game. As you say. Not the same anymore. Just as well. I can't handle it like I used to.
