It's called the Yorkshire Man but it's a poor substitute for the original unfortunately.

Never liked it and like all Irish pubs overpriced. -
What on earth as it to do with the mortgage lender? If it's your house it's entirely up to you!

Who and where sells the best pasties in Sheffield?

Just wondered if there was any possibility that Henry's which was situated at the bottom of Cambridge Street could eventually reopen?

It's the same area's every time and if you're from Sheffield you know where they are. So if you're thinking of moving here do your homework! -

Road resurfacing, Amey & Streets Ahead
vanzandt56 replied to ivan edake's topic in Sheffield News & Discussions
The road I live on in Oughtibridge was done in 2014 for the tour de France. It now needs doing again in parts. Amey are a joke of a company. -
What on earth is happening to the paper shop in Oughtibridge? It's been 6 months since it was damaged by fire. Absolutely nothing has been said about it, has anyone got any information on the situation?

The most expensive pub in Sheffield?
vanzandt56 replied to vanzandt56's topic in Going out in Sheffield
When i first started drinking in the mid 70's drinking in town was always more expensive than in the suburbs, now that has been reversed for the most part, unless you happen to live in a student area like Broomhill where The Place and Fox And Duck are great value. -
My thoughts are it will still attract the usual suspects, once you have that reputation it is very difficult to change things round and it will need a strong character in charge to revive it's fortunes but i wish them well.

The most expensive pub in Sheffield?
vanzandt56 replied to vanzandt56's topic in Going out in Sheffield
How about this! Blu 88 on west street (Hallamshire Hotel) £13.60 for a double vodka and red bull (second shot for £1) and a double jamesons and soda, I questioned the manager and he knew the price off the top of his head so it must have been correct. Never again! -
How ironic is it that the supposed greenest city in this country is felling trees at an alarming rate? 10 healthy mature trees were butchered to extend a perimeter fence across from where i work in Attercliffe and driving home today they have felled another dozen (at least) on the central reservation on Penistone road apparently to plant new ones!

Hillsborough is quite expensive for houses and renting so why is the shopping so downmarket? -

I have lived in various places in the uk, NONE compare to Sheffield! Why? because of the PEOPLE they're what make a place, not buidings nor fancy restaurants not even the weather! home is home and i for one wouldn't change it!

Sheffield City Council has never given a damn about Stocksbridge, so why should they start now? we pay exactly the same taxes has everyone else so why shouldn't we should expect and receive the same services? How are the good people of the Valley supposed to keep fit? I think independence is the only option! As for Angela Smith, as was pointed out she likes to see her face in look local on a regular basis, so i wonder if she'll be at the planned protest for another photo session?
