  1. I get the same funny looks from the missis. What’s the problem with my shaking the bottle to get last droplets from the whisky bottle.
  2. Ain’t life for living? Married at 25. Happily married for 34 years before cancer won her battle. Followed by ten years widowed and moved to the Welsh countryside. Started camping as a hobby….met a new partner. Now in our 5th year together. I don’t believe one era of my life any better than another. It’s life. We can’t change it.
  3. Where does tha want it moving to? It’s already in general chat….and now’t to do with Sheffield.
  4. Brilliant….having worked and paid taxes all my life…I reach retirement. No more national insurance to pay, and no tax. Just live on the small state pension. UNTIL ….some rich conservative politician decides to freeze the tax free limit at £12570. Oh and we’ll look good if we increase the pension by around 8%. We’ll give it with one hand..and take it back with t’other..
  5. Nowt’s changed then. I was beginning to think Sheffield forum had changed for the better. Our King has cancer and the usual suspects yet again turn it into an opportunity to “have a go” at each other. Give it a rest please. Best wishes to King Charles.
  6. I haven’t read the whole thread (intrusive adverts in the way)… But my most annoying and overused words are…..”you know “. I listen to a lot of radio/tv…and the number of interviewees responses say “you know” followed by their response. Why the “you know “…. We don’t bloody know, else we wouldn’t have asked!
  7. And I’m so grateful to the worst performing NHS for saving my life. NEXT ?
  8. Just to add (without looking for an argument) …. There are many hospitals in Wales that are in city centres. Newport has two. Hospitals such as Ystrad Mynach are close to local villages with shopping centres, yet all are free parking. I just don’t understand how it’s acceptable to pay twice. In England you are expected to pay twice. You pay taxes and national insurance just like the Welsh do. Surely that’s enough. And I won’t mention free medication again.
  9. Isn’t the title of this thread Northern General Parking? Has it moved? When I lived there it was in a northern suburb of Sheffield. Charges for parking there has nothing to do with being central (and therefore abused) …..it’s about ripping off vulnerable people when most in need.
  10. Not getting into politics.. Welsh NHS saved my life. Enough said…
  11. Where did that come from? I reckon you and gaz 786 are mates. You’ve both had a little bit of a dig at my recent comments. FYI One visit to a doctor and I immediately had blood tests. Long story cut short…but within weeks I had an aneurysm repaired…kidney failure diagnosed…dialysis for 14 months…and a new kidney transplanted. Nothing but praise for the Welsh NHS from me. And the biggest praise to the family who allowed the loss of their loved one to save my life.
  12. Since when was you made a moderator? My opinions are as valid as any other on here…unless free speech is now banned on this public forum. The police obviously have taken the matter seriously. Fights, bullying or any violence at a young age can have lasting consequences in life.
  13. Or move to Wales. Hospital car parking is free here….as it should be. Oh….and so is prescription medication…no charge.
