Where To Get A Passport Photo In Sheffield?
modforlife replied to JCJC's topic in Sheffield News & Discussions
You don't need to go to one of those boothes anymore . If you apply online you just take a photo against a plain wall with your phone / i pad upload it and it almost instantly tells you whether its ok . i renewed mine on line in February, its a dead easy website to follow . Mine took 4 weeks to arrive -
Apple pay on your phone is the easiest way by a mile . No need to carry cash or a card. For many years i resisted, and used to curse students paying for rounds in crowded bars in town . Nowdays its the people with cash that slow things down at the bar.

I've always used Powertech down near the Rother Valley for all our tool repairs at work . They'll tell you whether its worth repairing if you're unsure . https://www.powertech-industrial.co.uk/

We went at the weekend and had a few drinks sat outside in the sun . It was lovely . The service was faultless , and although i only briefly saw the inside it looked really nice . Certainly a great addition to the city center.

I’ve been a few times , it’s always been busy , so it’s proving to be a great addition to Sheffield social scene . Admittedly, it a little bit out on a limb in the location it’s in , but I keep seeing plans to redevelop that area so hopefully in a few years it might be complementing some nice new trendy bars .

'winning scratchcard' dispute
modforlife replied to woodmally's topic in Sheffield News & Discussions
I stand by my statement . Taxpayers should not be paying for a prosecution. It should be the company itself . Pretty much like most fraudlant insurance claims are brought to court . Its not the police pressing the charges but a private investigation company . -
'winning scratchcard' dispute
modforlife replied to woodmally's topic in Sheffield News & Discussions
Not read all the pages on this , but this is my take . It’s clearly a con , yet this guy is getting plenty of media attention out of it , at the expense of a lot of bad publicity for Camelot . Yes it’s fraud , but I don’t think it’s the police or CPS should be wasting tax payers money on this taking him to court . For me , it’s Camelot that should be bringing a private prosecution to put an end to this saga and deter similar minded fraudsters in the future. -

Best bars for the over 40s in town please?
modforlife replied to Andyrou's topic in Going out in Sheffield
If you’re not a real ale person and just want to go round some decent busy bars . Try starting in All Bar about 6.30ish . Cross the road try any of the Leopold square bars imidiatley to the left . Cross the square and go in Cuckoo . From there Maida Vale . Bit of a walk then onto Division St . Go in Frog and Parrot , Old House (although I think it might have changed it’s name again ) Forum bar , and Green Room If you manage that lot , trust me you’ll have had a blummin good night -
New Retail Quarter in the City Centre
modforlife replied to athorby's topic in Sheffield News & Discussions
Let’s hope it can attract shops to pull shoppers away from Meadowhall , Leeds and Manchester . In my opinion it’s vital we do, we don’t need any more Home Bargains, Poundland’s, and Pound Stretchers . We need to attract shoppers that will spend , stop in our hotels , use the restaurants and bars . Tell their friends and come back again. -
Sylvesters Bar, Leopold Square, Now open.

What is the best place to watch a football match?
modforlife replied to ordinaryman's topic in Going out in Sheffield
My reply is too late for today’s match . However for future reference try the new Sports bar in the Genting club. It’s got a massive main screen with incredible picture quality , plus numerous other screens . -
Does anyone know of any wine experts/speakers?
modforlife replied to Hannah9612's topic in Going out in Sheffield
As the post above . I once went to a charity do in town that was a wine tasting evening . The guy who owns Mitchell’s was the guest speaker ( I think they also supplied the wine )he was fantastic , proper expert in the field , and a witty host
