Why don't I ever get groped in The Harley? I'm appealing to the management to take action on this... P.s. More props for Wall of Balls here ... absolutely quality night

Chippinghouse Road, S7, problems?
Bully_Beef replied to Multibeam100's topic in Sheffield News & Discussions
It probably is a normal hotel, but I believe the authorities do sometimes put emergency accommodation cases in cheap hotels until they can find them somewhere permanent (anyone who knows more about it might want to correct me if I'm wrong). I lived just round the corner until recently, and I never noticed anything wrong with Chippinghouse Road... Finding a syringe in the garden is never nice though! -
South Yorkshire Police - The Honest Truth
Bully_Beef replied to matt1889's topic in Sheffield News & Discussions
Have you read this back to yourself mate? It is clearly ridiculous. No one should need to issue all these disclaimers to be allowed to make a comment from their own experience. If you read the original post of this thread, it says I know you have a specific interest in defending the police, which is fair enough, but if people can't make judgements from their own experience (WHICH WAS THE ORIGINAL POINT OF THE THREAD) without you jumping down their throats, then we might as well just stop the whole discussion. I think we would all accept that our own individual experience has limitations and doesn't amount to a generalised rule. You seem to be the only person trying to infer a universal condemnation of the police from every single remark that is not in their favour -
Can we now Trust the Greens?
Bully_Beef replied to isaidthat's topic in Sheffield News & Discussions
You're right - it is total drivel. There are actually three articles there - only one of which has a headline in bold. It reads to me like some foaming-at-the-mouth Labour sympathisers have hacked into the Star's website to post some badly-researched propraganda... -
South Yorkshire Police - The Honest Truth
Bully_Beef replied to matt1889's topic in Sheffield News & Discussions
Can I ask where you got this statistic? Or did you just make it up? Also, if people of a particular skin colour are overwhelmingly responsible for crime in a particular neighbourhood, are you seriously suggesting that it is then logical for the police randomly to target people with that skin colour? That is simply not true. Have YOU ever been to Brixton? I have several white, middle class friends who live there, and have visited loads of times myself without being subjected to any kind of threatening behaviour at all. Not saying it doesn't happen, but to describe it as a 'no-go area for whites' is preposterous. -

Bully_Beef replied to FiveFive's topic in Going out in Sheffield
I've got a feeling there's some DnB/Garage/Bassline thing on at the Earl on a Thursday, but I can't find any info about it. -

Sheffield: Serious Image Problem?

Haha! Good call. I do love the Hope valley. Wouldn't wanna live there though -
Sheffield: Serious Image Problem?
Bully_Beef replied to TheRedWizard's topic in Sheffield News & Discussions
Yes, true as well. But if you have the pick of where you want to visit it's not surprising if you choose exotic locations abroad. I suppose my original point was that there are probably quite a lot of people in the South who won't have ever considered that there is any reason to visit the North, and therefore will never get the chance to shed their prejudices about it. -

That's actually a very fair point. -
Sheffield: Serious Image Problem?
Bully_Beef replied to TheRedWizard's topic in Sheffield News & Discussions
When I moved to Sheffield from down South (nearly 10 years ago), a lot of the people who had never visited did assume it was a horrible post-industrial wasteland, but then they also assumed that about Leeds, Manchester, Liverpool and Newcastle. Everyone I know who had that outlook and then visited any of these cities has been pleasantly surprised, particularly so with Sheffield because it is so green. I don't know if any of the publicity about all the regeneration in the North has filtered down South in the intervening 10 years. Possibly not - I remember meeting Southerners while on a work-related conference in London about a year ago who had been all over Europe and America but never visited the North of England, and didn't seem to think that was strange either. It's ironic that those people probably think Northerners are insular... -
Depends where you put em! If it's in a shop or pub or on someone's property - with their permission - whether they charge you, and how long they leave them up for is entirely at their discretion. A lot of newsagents will charge to use window space. Most other shops don't. Pubs usually don't charge, but often won't accept anything that appears to be in conflict with their own trade. If it's in a public space, like a subway wall or something, I suspect it's not actually legal.
