It’s just possible that Goole may have ‘turned a corner’ and that the town’s fortunes are on the rise. I noticed today that a couple of new businesses have opened up on Boothferry Road, the main shopping street. There’s the merest hint of a positive vibe, and not before time. I celebrated with a beer at the Mac, a splendidly unimproved boozer next to the docks. It’s like a downmarket Cheers, where “everybody knows your name”, and "they're always glad you came". A guy brought in a bag of Gregg’s sausage rolls and handed them round, and the landlord shook my hand as I left.
