  1. We're trying to help the locals in rebuilding a ski school...the adults and children that will be benefitting will be the locals that already live in the area...so there will be a threat whether they have skis or not.
  2. Yeah I have someone trying to get in touch. I don't have too much hope as I think that the boot room was destroyed. We shall see. Thanks a lot.
  3. Hi all, Following a story published back in April on the BBC I took it upon myself to reach out and offer help to one determined man's mission to bring back skiing to the Swat Valley in Pakistan. Here is the original article by Rebecca Kesby: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/magazine-21654353 As you may know, ski season is almost upon us so we need help as soon as possible. Matee Ullah Khan is attempting to revive a once growing yet niche activity in the area but without any of the basics after the area was destroyed by the Taliban some years ago. We NEED skis. Old skis, new skis, snow blades, poles, boots. Anything that can help the children and adults alike rebuild a once loved sport. Currently they have access to only a few pairs of skis and several planks of wood with shoes nailed to them, please help us change this. We have been in touch with the Pakistani High Commission and they have confirmed that they are willing to ship everything out to Pakistan for free and transport will be arranged once they touch down in Lahore. If you think you can spare a pair of old skis, snow blades, poles or boots then we can come and collect them or if you're passing by Fulwood, Sheffield then we'd be happy to receive them. If you haven't got anything to spare right now please pass this on so we can reach as many people as possible. Please help us make this a reality and make a difference to people's lives in this war torn country. Please get in touch via PM. Thank you, Joe Fulwood, S10 3RT
  4. Kayla, I'm going for 6 months next week (mostly in Bangkok). I've been before and loved it. Loads of people are travelling alone but always end up meeting people in the youth hostels. My friend just came back from a solo trip, didn't make any plans but joined in with people that he met. This is the way to do it I think. If you need advice with Bangkok stuff just PM me.
  5. Muldoon, where is this bar? I can't find a site for it. Have you got a link?
  6. http://www.skyscanner.net Flexible dates - best site.
  7. I'm sorry to those who are upset about my spelling. I was staying at my Mother's house in Fulwood. It's not my house or my area and she has only just moved there. Yeah we were all asleep upstairs. It wasn't planned as next door's gate was broken open so they were obviously trying a few houses. Still no word from the police. Not really very hopeful right now.
  8. At 3:00 last night our family home in Fullwood was broken in to. Lots of items from the house have been taken including TV's, computers, laptops etc. plus the car keys and cars from outside the house. Mine is a Blue Nissan Almera (Newer model) Reg: JLZ 2858 My sister's is a Red VW Polo (Older model) with a very distinct number plate: E11Y JB. If anyone spots these we and the police would be very grateful to hear from you. Thanks a lot.
  9. I'm looking for a place that lists talks taking place in Sheffield. Is there such a thing?
  10. Hey, Could I possibly get these pictures as well. My family are all from the area (mostly Landon St) Betty and Stanley Blackwell, and Barbara Blackwell I think was around the same age. Thanks.
  11. I would definitely look into the ebay market as starting a new online store from scratch can be very costly (although a nice looking store on the side is always a good idea with ebay stores). Start your research now and you should be ready by the time you go live. Good luck. P.S. Try out http://www.thebigwebsite.org as liz said above.
  12. http://www.thebigwebsite.org.uk definitely.
  13. Hey, I can put you through to a small company that does decals with very competitive prices. PM me.
  14. But education is where the money is at the moment, especially in China. Most businesses I would agree, but education is something else.
