Hi, I have an American car which I would like to store in your barn. Could you let me have the details please including the Monthly cost? Many thanks Alex 01142217077 or 07976723617.

Just to say that I hope you do well, but don't be too sure about your future, as I worked for the same company for over 28 years and was made redundant.

I took out a mortgage in 1989 for £26600, and that was costing me around "£200 per month. I was earning around £19000 then and the mortgage was an endowment type. Since then I have changed it to a capital repayment mortgage which is a much more stable way of doing things. Since then I was made redundant twice, but now I have a reasonably stable job and I earn £20000. My wife also earns £16000, so we are comfortable especially when you consider that my mortgage comes to an end in late 2014. ---------- Post added 27-11-2013 at 09:02 ---------- I hope that your situation does not change, because it could be financially devastating with a mortgage that big. My mortgage is £171 per month and ends in 2014. Thank God.

My Father worked for "MJ GLEESON PLC" as I did, and He was the senior Contracts Manager during the construction of the Hallam Tower Hotel, which was completed in 1964.

Sheffield University and the Hallam university already have too many buildings in my opinion, they should not be allowed any more. The Hallam Towers Hotel should be fully brought up to date as a very good 4 star hotel in 2011.

It is an interesting building, and Sheffield City Council seem to like wasting money demolishing potentially useful buildings, just look what happened to the town hall extension. Oh and incidentally my Father was the Senior Contracts manager who was in charge of the construction of the Hallam Tower Hotel. It was completed in 1964, which was the year of my birth.

I have recently visited Loxley chapel and the Graveyard, and to be honest I was shocked to see the state of the graves, all overgrown with nettles and brambles. There are a few things that started me thinking about the whole package of what comes with a Church and a graveyard. As we now live in 2011 I realise that our views on religion and graveyards have changed dramatically, for various reasons. The decline of numbers of individuals who attend church has accelerated in recent years, in a nut shell very few people are interested in religion anymore, and so even if this chapel was still open, there would be so few punters that it would need to close any way. The graveyard is large and as I have stated it is badly overgrown. As this Chapel and graveyard are now owned privately by the Hague family I am told, it becomes complex as although the graveyard is in private hands, the individual grave plots are owned seperately. The owners of the graveyard could say that the upkeep of each grave plot is the responsibility of the plot owners. This should not detract from the current owners of the graveyard keeping all access footpaths and walkways free of foliage and in good condition. As far as I am concerned if you are not prepared to keep the accessways open and in good order, if only from a health and safety point of view, then you should not be allowed to own the land. The Hague family have responsibilities that they are not living up to. The Chapel building is in surprisingly good condition, at least structurally. I accessed the interior through a door at the rear of the chapel which was open, and the interior needs many thousands of pounds spending on it and in these days of reccession the money is simply not there. I suppose that it all boils down to the fact that people would rather spend money on people who are alive, and not dead.
