Break them up / take them apart then take them to your nearest tip / Household waste recycling centre)? https://www.sheffield.gov.uk/home/bins-recycling-services/household-waste-recycling-centres -
Cafes Nr Water In Sheffield/S.Y/Derbyshire?
Vrev replied to gamezone07's topic in General Discussions
Please excuse my ignorance when it comes to what helps your asthma, but would a boating lake count? If so Millhouses Park cafe is an option. A little further afield I think Cannon Hall has a cafe very close to water. -
Completely your choice of course, but I'd suggest there isn't a Greek restaurant in Sheffield that is likely to offer something more proper or authentic than the natives can get at home.

Vrev replied to DannyGUK's topic in Sheffield News & Discussions
1st Choice 1st Class have always been perfect for me. 0114 233 1875. -
I couldn't disagree more.

Vrev replied to prolific's topic in Sheffield News & Discussions
Perhaps my 2 bed terrace will be worth £1.5m -
Recommendations for Mini bus or taxi hire for airport runs?
Vrev replied to DannyGUK's topic in Sheffield News & Discussions
This is more than a year out of date, but the company I have used previously (1st Choice 1st Class) charged £58 each way. -
Commuting to Leeds from Sheffield everyday by train
Vrev replied to Nibs2017's topic in Sheffield News & Discussions
A long time ago (15 years!) I used to drive to Meadowhall (where you could park for free, at least at the time) and get the National Express bus. I seem to remember it was about £5 return but will surely have gone up. Bus starts from Sheffield bus station and stops in a couple of places in Leeds. I got the return from Leeds bus station. -
Our experience over last ~3 months 1st time: Was really impressed, best we've had from a local takeaway in quite some time. 2nd time: Really poor, with quality of the meat and flavour well below what it was before. 3rd time: Gave it another go after 1st experience and it was good again! Previous visit must have been an off night... 4th time: Ugh, poor again. So a little torn right now! Seems next time wil be good based on the pattern, but not sure we want to try again...

Tramlines Festival - Hillsborough Park
Vrev replied to SheffieldForum's topic in Sheffield News & Discussions
Popped to Hillsborough earlier for a couple of things - around 11:30am they were beginning to cone off side roads and put stewards in place to check cars entering. -
Tend to agree. Only time I go in is when waiting for a takeaway from Rajput, and even then only if there is some football on the TV. Otherwise it's Hallamshire.

Uber Vs normal Taxi co,s experience which is better/cheaper?
Vrev replied to nowt2pctoday's topic in General Discussions
3 different black cabs (with lights on) refused to take my wife and I from Division Street to Stannington on Saturday night (around 1am). It's impossible to feel any sympathy for the likes of Uber eating into their business when they act like that. -
Went to Wong Ting recently for the first time and was disappointed. Thought food was generally tasteless, over salted and with poor quality meat used. We did have the banquet (all you can eat) menu, which we wouldn't usually, as typically it means lower quality. However most of the dishes we would have gone for from the a la carte were on the banquet menu too. I did wonder whether the same dish would have been better quality from the a la carte, but surely it would simply be the same?

Vero Gusto, which is lovely, appears to be for sale: http://www.rightmove.co.uk/commercial-property-for-sale/property-63048754.html

It's the nicest I've had so far in Sheffield, but I still don't think it's great.

I would also go for Hui Wei.

Fair enough re: timing, I didn't spot that. Which of the suggestions do you feel are not to the north or central Sheffield?

Sharing this - I was surprised with a couple on here: https://www.thestar.co.uk/news/revealed-all-11-sheffield-restaurants-with-zero-star-food-hygiene-ratings-1-8973524 By the way, I hate the click bait type way they make you click through every one individually.

The best hot roast pork sandwich in Sheffield?
Vrev replied to FIRETHORN1's topic in Going out in Sheffield
The pork sandwich from L's Kitchen at Wisewood crossroads is good, however a large part of that is likely down to the delicious roast potatoes you get with it. Re: Beres crackling - try asking for the actual crackling from the joint rather than the pre-prepared stuff. If it is soft they will tell you, but if proper crackling is available it makes a huge difference in my opinion. -
This is largely correct I believe, although when I have been there have always been plenty of visitor spaces down the left hand side when you drive in. I cannot recall if there is a time limit on use of the visitor spaces, or whether the requirement is simply that they can only be used when visiting one of the businesses based there. I have only ever been for 30 mins or so.

Fines for parking beyond clearway signs
Vrev replied to Ms Macbeth's topic in Sheffield News & Discussions
I would say that the rules around clearway are, more than most elements of the highway code, simply not known/understood by many people. I think people are accustomed to checking for yellow lines, and if none think it is fine.
