I lived near immigrants on Gleadless Valley, I couldn’t say if they were Albanians or if they were from Bulgaria but what I do know is that every morning at 06:30 two of the occupants of the house fifty yards from me, were picked up in a transit van and before they drove off rucksacks were filled with charity bags to put through peoples letter boxes , the van returned every afternoon BUT on a couple of days on its return around 10 to 15 black bags full of clothes were taken from the van into the house to be looked through, if they actually worked for a charity these bags would have been taken to a charity sorting unit, not not someone’s home. A couple of times a month bags full of clothes were dumped at the Maisonette communal bins, one morning I counted 20 full bags containing shoes and clothes along with hundreds of unopened charity bags, you should notice that the collectors of these bags are invariably Eastern European, now they don’t come here to work for a charity, I never accept any charity bags from these people, if anyone wants to contribute to any charity take your items to the many charity shops or set up a direct debit for a nominal sum.

Ive heard wolves howl but never heard em whistle.

I"m fat and know I am, no amount of bull**** humouring will change that fact. Lard arse is quite offensive though.🤣.

She's making her professional boxing debut at the Barnsley metrodome tonight. She fights out of Rileys Fitness and Boxing gym in Sheffield. Good luck Amy 🥊

How many jabs have you had?? 🤣

The canna lilies are in bloom again, this year I must buy some.

"Flapper" the "Padders Bar Parrot" manages to squawk some proper expletive's at both men and women. We just ignore him.

exactly, some men think its their god given right

Some men don't wait for encouragement they take it for granted that their advances will be welcome, or maybe it's dutch courage which emboldens them.

Do you know the full details of that person's medical and mental health background and social history? This is akin to saying to someone "but you don't look disabled"...

its about sexual harrassment in the street, which should be a criminal offence tbh, weve come out of the dark ages and supposed to be civilised, women can go about their daily lives without being subjected to harrassment because of their sex surely? its the 21st century, not the 1970s

Had a reight crush on her when I was a lad . R.I.P

Due to your infinate wisdom my days in the shed and garage will be a lot more comfortable.

Wouldn't bother me one bit, always took it as a compliment. Nowadays it would be a miracle. 😂

In my experience the fellas who wolf-whistle are usually up a ladder so not much of a threat.

Definitely. That's the last thing we need, Blouses rising up in protest

It's all a about being on the ball ,& not just for the 1st 10/15 mins , woeful passing " JOHNSON " is the perfection of that & without Banan we are buggered

But THIS particular thread DOES. English law does not apply to the rest of the world so again, not relevant what happens in the rest of the world re abortion

over sensitive clap trap

She was a real character Pat , Also a talented Violin and piano player , She entertained the German prisoners at Lodge Moor in the war , I was born in 1943 LOL .

Without a doubt

There was once a survey that said Yorkshire men prefer larger ladies. Mrs Rocker a Sheffield lass and definitely on the petite side said "thank god your from Scotland Rocker" 🤣 Actually I think she said something like "Come here - Lover boy 😍 🤩 😍 💋 💋 Keep safe out there

I've always found the larger made person enjoys the humour behind "your looking 'Buoyant today' On the other hand being told "That reminds me I must mend that 'porch canopy" while looking at someones beer belly doesn't always go down so well 🤣 🤣 Keep safe out there Minimo - Soz 🤣

Idiot will do nicely

My birth mother (not my real mother who fostered me) was 91 when she was put into a old folks home in Cleethorpes . She escaped one Sunday and I got a phone call from a local food pub who did Sunday lunch , She had flagged down a Taxi and arrived there , She then ordered full Sunday Lunch and three whiskeys , The lunch was eaten , the whiskeys supped , the bill presented and then it was reveiled that she was skint no money . "Phone my son in Sheffield "She said , " He will pay " , They did and I told em to pithe off . We had not met until she was 90 and she was not keen on seeing me then so we were not close . Any way they put her on the phone and she said in her plum in the gob accent , "How dare you not pay for your mothers lunch and drinks . I told her that as I was in Sheffield it would be a bit of a problem , She slammed the phone down . Any way she never returned to the old folks home , The pub arranged a car to take her to her home where she remained until she died at 99 years old . I visited her on a few occasions in my three wheeler Reliant Robin , She refused to ride in it saying it was unsafe . Until I said "well I am going to the Coach House for lunch " She was in that three wheeler like streak lightning , her first words on entering , "Get your mother a whiskey " Her local shop kept her pension book . she would phone them and Tell!!! them to deliver her supply's . The supplies were usually a bottle of sherry or a bottle of Scotch . She died at 99 penny less ,

You are a patronising two hat ...

Just another load of rambling gibberish, entirely disconnected from anything the post was responding to.

Maybe “ Chubby”. ?

How very dare you use my photo without asking!

In your country Article 37 of the Dominican Constitution: "The right to life is inviolable from the moment of conception and until death." Abortion is completely illegal in your country in any event and punishable by 2-10 years in jail. You say "... abortion is available on demand at clinics and hospitals here. and is a common practice amongst younger females." So which view is correct? You or your Government,Constitution or Law. To save you even further wriggling discomfort you should know that: Your information is out of date. Your government withdrew the exceptions applied to 'deformity', threat to mothers life, rape and incest. Your president reneged on his election promise to liberalize some abortion laws. Your police since 2012 arrest women seeking medical after an illegal abortion.

Buoyant is a better word Prince Al 🤣

It seems a lot of these phrases are only wrong if said by a white person.

Another case of "No Bottle Tops" ?

The police lady was quite alright about it, glad you understand too.

Im very sorry to hear about your neighbours but It was clearly a joke. You're finding a problem where there isn't one and before you ask, Yes I lost someone close to dementia. It's not pretty and there are much better ways to go but I'm Not offended about a joke on an Internet forum. Life is too short.

I find old threads interesting , It brings old members back and maybe they are still around . As to being called nasty names by someone who only ever slags others off and contributes nowt to this forum , If it makes your day feel free , Dementia and Autism not a thing to take the pisss out off , This old post is bang on even now I wonder who Plumcious is or was

You have an interesting set of beliefs. On the one had you think we should have suppressed society in a draconian and unprecedented manner to save as many lives as possible, regardless of the cost, which (even if it worked, which is debatable.....) was FAR higher than the NHS would ordinarily spend keeping anyone alive. But on the other hand you give the impression the lives of unborn babies (totally innocent remember...) are worth nothing to you. The only common theme is your willingness to trample on others personal freedoms. Bit selfish that. Wrong as ever

It is, I felt uncomfortable but the description had to be realistic and correct.

Same coppers from Manor top , Got my own back though , pinched his bike and hid it in Prince Edwards school yard . The next day the kids were riding it around play ground wi flat tyres .

In 1959 me and thee got found ten shillings for drinking under age in the Royal Oak on Mansfield Road , the two lasses with us got let off , The coppers came to our house on sit up and beg bikes and told me mam on me . We made the Star newspaper , The headline said , Apprentices caught drinking under age find ten shillings by magistrates , Our criminal record had began . A costly pint that was . The Conservatives were in power , Hated that bloooody mob ever since

I smoked park drive from 13 to 37 , but only about 5 a day in week , had a few more at week ends , It didn’t seem to effect me as I was always fit , Started racing on cycle again when I was 38 , never touched another one , when I first bought cigs they were 1shilling and three old pence for ten , Up till leaving school I bought 5 for 9 old pence . beer in 1961 1shilling 3 old pence per pint , stones or any other bitters around Sheffield was that price , Some people say you could get equivalent off same things you got then today, A complete load off rubbish, Oh Well All Our Yesterdays, First house £900 1965 , Mini first good. car 1966 18 months old £400 , Just a change from todays politics

Oh Patricia, I share your pain. I mean offence to no-one but I'm always putting my foot in it... Language has become another battle ground, (like we needed another,) but it is important. I just wish it wouldn't keep changing all the time while people make up their minds what is acceptable. It's hard to keep up....

illegal to Wolf Whistle ? Are you sure ? Reminds me of the time these builders on a roof Wolf Whistled me as I walked through town. I stuck my nose in the air and walked straight into a lamp post !

Is a Herring red ?

The problem is no matter what term you use, someone is going to (probably pretend to) get offended because you have actually used the term in the first place. "Waaah waaah waaah would you have mentioned it if they were white?" Halibut used to enjoy doing similar on here.

My one - and only - comment: Why does anyone watch the tripe?

@pattriciais not asking how to power down the iPad, but if she should, and has already accepted the recommendation not to bother.

I will probably be told I'm 'not an expert', but I've had an iPad forever (well, a good 12 years+). There is no benefit at all in totally powering it down completely unless it is needed to clear a bug - happens very rarely these days, or unless you are not going to be using it for an extended period - more than 10 days, I would suggest. Also, continually powering it down and back up could shorten its life by stressing components at shutdown/startup. And you will have to wait for it to start - which is a pain. So, just leave it in 'sleep' mode.

But most of all for our forum troll..............................................
