I think it's absolutely lovely! Also an ego free, unpretentious, unselfconscious video, very refreshing indeed! Well done.

The B.B.C just resort to sending them across South America, Africa, the Antarctic etc in a balloon or vintage camper van, get them to eat some insects and make them cry on camera.........oh, and pay them a fortune in license payers money.

" His name is Bobby, he looks like a potato"

As kids at Colley School (Parson Cross) in the 70's/ 80's, in the dinner break we would regularly walk on to Margetson Shops. Between two you would buy an uncut loaf from the bakers and ask em to saw it in half, then you would rip the bread out of the centre of your half, feed it to the pigeons and buy a bag of chips (again between two) divide the chips between you and stuff the into your ( now hollow) half a loaf, plenty of salt and vinegar then get stuck in! If we couldn't afford the chips, a bag of crisps would have to do. It was delicious...........no, hang on, it was revolting!

I don't know why but I think it's really funny when some camera angles manage to include a photo (on the wall, sideboard etc) of a previous, now deceased character, so in between the high tension, emotive exchanges you can see Albert Tatlock's grim scowl or Betty Turpin's big beaming dial.

Yes! it was North's fair,they were a rum lot, the bloke who worked on the speedway looked like Gary Glitter. They also used to pitch up in Ecclesfield, behind The Ball Inn.

Me and my mates went in for a few jars prior to seeing The Who at the City Hall (about 1980) Pete Townshend was sat in the t.v room at the back with a couple of roadies, quite <REMOVED>, watching Coronation St (which he found greatly amusing!) anyway we got talking and he bought us all a pint of Stones and signed my T Shirt with 'Pete Townshend says "join the <REMOVED> army"' My mum put it in the wash next day!

I wonder if you mean The Rock at Cranemoor (near Penistone)?

Why report it the council, it's a magnificent creature. Just keep your distance and admire it from afar, don't make it an elf 'n' safety issues!

I spoke to the blokes gutting the shop on Fri morn, apparently he is giving it up and now working from home.

I've also noticed that the B.B.C fm signal has been rubbish over the last few days, regularly travel to Chesterfield and the high peak, tons of interference, cutting out etc, assumed the R.D.S or aerial had developed a fault. B.B.C expenditure cuts?

If we're not careful she will become a 'Hannah Hauxwell', but for the 21st century, with invitations to appear on 'I'm a Celebrity' and a recording contract with Simon Cowell, poor woman!

This is true, people round here have always appeared to struggle with the correct spelling or pronunciation of this particular outfit i.e. Weatherspoons, Weather Spoons, Witherspoons etc.

If you use one of those little brush things (tepees?) to sort out in between your teeth, and it's amazing how much of your last meal still dwells there! Then, have a rigorous electric toothbrush sesh, you really do feel like you have the mouth of an angel.

New Shedbbq! Is it a bbq in a shed or a shed over a bbq? You decide!! Neighbours will gasp!

This thread didn't go 'off topic' as it was never 'on topic' from the beginning!

Sheffield ranked 43rd!! in a league of uk city/town centers. Why?

It's like an elephants graveyard for out of work ex 'soap stars', when the pantomime season has ended.

All soap operas appear to represent a strange world, where most people look like boy band members or porn stars, even in the Yorkshire Dales.

I'm intrigued by the menu, ox cheek, rabbit, duck currys indeed! Anyone been? Any robin?

As you misspelled 'weak', we must assume that you won't be around for long then!

Sheffield had the most dramatic topography of all England's cities, its vistas, views and contrasts are equally stunning, stark and beautiful. Take any journey from one side of the city to the other, look around and appreciate what we have. Shirecliffe, Stannington, Crookes, Walkley, Wincobank hill, Eccleshall, Beauchief, Norton, Gleadless etc etc, no amount of 'investment' can buy this. Manchester/ Leeds has none of it, just some expensive shops and nightclubs that soap opera actors frequent!

Richard Caborn seems to think that if he says "....well Sheffield is widely recognised as 'the city of sport'"enough it will eventually become a reality, ask the citizens of Manchester, Liverpool, London, Birmingham, oh I'm going to bed!

Has anyone ever heard the expression 'parallel process?'

Ha ha! That's really funny, hilarious in fact,I've barely recovered laughing, you really are missing your vocation!
