What did you do that was so bad they made you move to Hull? 
Hey, don't knock Hull! It's got dozens of skee ball arcardes, tattoo parlors, fried dough stands, and snooty rich people who put large fences around their yard to block public access to its main attraction, Nantasket Beach, which probably has more big hair, tramp stamps, metal studs and inappropriately fitting skimpy swimsuits per-capita than any beach town in the U.S.
Oh, you're talking about Hull in the UK, then! Nevermind!

Hi 8!
What's your picture?
What's your picture?
Rochester Cathedral is floodlit at night and you can get some very interesting shadow effects by standing in front of the lights.

A friend from my post-school days used to live in a graveyard (where her dad was a caretaker). Yes, her house was actually inside the cemetary! The family dog used to have mad moments of staring at blank, empty walls and corners growling and barking, hackles raised. The cat would screech and run for no reason. The front lawn came complete with gravestones and you had to walk through the graves to leave at night. That was fairly spooky.

Not that I'd want to live there: I've read my M R James.
I think (I don't have the book handy) that it means something like 'there's only one'. That would fit with the football chant that goes:
One [insert name here]
There's only one [insert name here]
One [insert name here]
There's only one [insert name here]
Sung to the tune of the chorus of Guantanamera.
