Not everyone has the strength and ability to carry heavy bags of shopping or bulky items all the way down to the "multitude of parking spaces"? so they will shop elsewhere where they can park. Sadly we are not all fit young things any longer but thankfully don't qualify for a disabled badge either. Please think of others before posting accusing people of being bone idle.

Tony, What a load of pompous, (the best post on this thread?) biassed tosh! And the answer to cyclists passing traffic lights at red whilst having no insurance is that the rest of us need to "get a grip if we suffer this ridiculous malaise"? I think you need to see a psychiatrist. Hopefully you were actually writing it tongue in cheek in which case I congratulate you for an excellent piece!

It was owned by the Stocks family who lived in the house up behind it when it was a petrol station in the 1960's

Doubtful, the last post was over 6 years ago!

You need to take advice from a building surveyor/engineer and engage an architect to draw up plans to submit a planning application first of all. Regulations are very stringent and require an integrated fire alarm system throughout the property and fire doors on all rooms (not just in the loft conversion). It can be done but it's not a cheap or simple undertaking, good luck!

My pal Pete Goodyear's mother worked at the Mary Gentle cafe and used to leave a shilling on a Thursday so me and Pete could run down from the City Grammar School and have a "six of chips" each on a Friday lunchtime. That would be in 1959/60. Never gave a thought as to why it was called that, presumably owned by a Catholic family?

The entire contents were sold yesterday at an auction on site, sad to see an original railway hotel gone, the stone over the door is engraved "Station Hotel Abbeydale", suppose that will end up in a skip when they knock the old place down and build much needed unaffordable executive apartments. Great pity.

It's also illegal, assuming United get crowds of more than 1,000 spectators! The aircraft must not be flown: over or within 150 metres of any congested area over or within 150 metres of an organised open-air assembly of more than 1,000 persons;

Allan, A bit late to be wishing her luck, she took over in 2004 according to he date of her post!

Botanical gardens? If weather is good outside, if not in side the glass houses. They have some interesting "Flags of the Nations" bedding displays outside the glass houses at the moment. I'd post a picture of them but I can't figure out how to! Good luck with the shoot Don

Just driven up Woodseats for the first time in ages and see Venture Studio has closed. Not seen anything on here about it, when did it go? Not too surprised, they were well overpriced.

I saw them at the Mojo Club 30th May 1965, still remember that night, awesome performance, wish I'd picked up some of the bits of the smashed guitar though! Thanks to the poster of the link to the gig list, I often wondered when it was.

I bought my Fuji gear from the Fuji Refurbished Shop, could be the answer if you can't get anyone else to go in with you and they are indistinguishable from new: http://shop.fujifilm.co.uk/lenses/refurbished-lenses Cheers Don

I think you all need to pay more attention, Nick has been here many times during the past couple of years, has held two public question and answer sessions, one in Ecclesall and on in Totley and made several visits in support of the campaign to save Totley library. He is no stranger to his constituency here in Sheffield but his visits are often at short notice for security reasons.
