  1. http://www.thisismoney.co.uk/money/cars/article-3305587/Plans-permanently-switch-speed-cameras-raise-money-police-forces-dismissed.html This article indicatestate they never on at 70 mph
  2. I recently spent 6 hours waiting in A&E. 1 hour of that just us in the waiting area. We was just waiting for a bed on the ward. So no fault on a&e the waiting time but looked bad on them due to bed shortage in rest of hospital. Not everything is clear cut. Waiting times not always due to how many people in a&e.
  3. The bridge is not a public right of way. The council was looking in to it but it never happened. So the railway company can do what they like. The quicker they put in ticket barriers the better. My train passes Dore and daily more people enter front carriages rather than back, knowing guard can not get to the back of train, I also never see them go to ticket office on arrival at Sheffield to buy a ticket, they must loose thosands a year, brining the cost of my ticket up.
  4. Sadly Stocksbridge is an easy target. Miles away from many in Sheffield so the loss will only be noticed by local people. On a side note whenever I have been their is a queue waiting to pay so it is not failing in this way.
  5. http://www.adviceguide.org.uk/wales/consumer_w/consumer_common_problems_with_products_e/consumer_what_you_can_do_about_faulty_goods_e/faulty_goods_-_if_you_want_your_money_back.htm If the trader wants to send faulty goods to the manufacturer to check The trader might want to send faulty goods to the manufacturer for an examination before agreeing to give you your money back. Ask how long this will take. The goods must be returned within a reasonable time. If you are asking for a full refund, make it clear that repairs are not to be carried out without your agreement. This would be an unfair practice. Many unfair practices by traders are against the law. After the manufacturer has examined the goods, if the trader doesn’t think there’s a fault you may have to get a second opinion. This is because, if you do want a full refund, it’s up to you to prove the item is faulty. For more about what to do if you think a practice is unfair, see Unfair trading practices
  6. IMO Jesus would not have joined in any protest. Reasons for my view on this is as follows: Mark 11:15-19 "My house shall be called a house of prayer for all the nations" - So not for protests Matthew 22:21 "Render unto Caesar the things which are Caesar's, and unto God the things that are God's" - So indicating taxes and money to goverments you should give without complaint or uprisings Mark 12:41-43 "This poor woman put in more than the rich people did," he said. "Here's why: the rich people still have much money left. But this woman only had two coins. She did not have any more money. The rich people only gave part of what they had. She gave all of what she had." - No details of lets protest and demand the rich give all their money just pointing out women will be better off in spirit. Their are other notes on money including many saying do not make a point of what you give. And if want pure goodeness give it all away. Not one thing did Jesus say or suggest the people should not be paid the money they do, not once did he suggest money should be shared equally, just to make sure we look after the poor. So Jesus protesting, no IMO he would say this is holy land for prayer and god, give to the quuen what is hers. If you give all you got and the rich give a little you will be richer for it. Do not judge others but leave that to god in heaven.
  7. http://www.stocksbridgehigh.sheffield.sch.uk/user/74/73088.pdf says Monday the 5th.
  8. According to the school website http://http://www.stocksbridgehigh.sheffield.sch.uk they are over subscribed. But as someone has said best speaking to the school about this.
  9. To continue on argument on costings Cineworld made £1.13 profit out of every film atendee. Many Cineworlds have a lot lower ticket prices than Sheffield, with sheffield having Early Bird tickets only until 1pm. But have a look at Chesterfield early bird is up to 5pm and on Tuesday they have even cheaper tickets all day. And even in peak tickets are 40p cheaper. So Cineworld do play Sheffield as a mug. If they are going to charge us high prices on food, they should set ticket prices same as other local Cineworld / other cinemas, and if it is a fact they give a large percentage of ticket price to studios etc. it won't make much differance to them to reduce it then will it .
  10. Don't think the argument of they can't survive without selling popcorn argument is correct, just one that certain cinemas tell you. Take VUE early tickets today are £5.30 Cineworld are £7.60 all day. So assuming VUE are making £0 on the early tickets (probably not true) Cineworld are making £2.30 a ticket. On Saturday I was in a full screen say 150 people (and many other bigger screens were near capacity looking at amount of people). So my one film made Cineworld £345. £115 a hour for just my film. Even on half capacity based on just my screen (a small one) multiplied by 20 screens that is £1150 a hour, even before popcorn. Places like VUE may only survive on Popcorn at these low rates, but places like Cineworld at £7.60 a ticket do not. But price dictate demand, if there is demand they can raise prices.
  11. You have to make sure they are including your child in to account http://www.csa.gov.uk/en/PDF/leaflets/new/CSL303.pdf page 15 says they will have to ignore £162 of his wage. So should only take £183 a month + any back pay. The important thing is to let them know of the addional child he is having to look after. Details on how to appeal http://www.csa.gov.uk/en/PDF/leaflets/new/CSL307.pdf
  12. Snow chains are illegal if used on treated roads. And can only go 20mph. Thats the reason why.
  13. http://twitter.com/cineworld SHEFFIELD UPDATE! If you already have an advance ticket booked, you WILL get entry to cinema. No NEW tickets will be issued in meantime Sheffield customers we are so so sorry. Trying to fix the situation asap Refunds: 0844 8157 747 Were trying to fix the problems at Sheffield asap and reopen but we dont know the extent of the problems yet.
  14. You could always use the park and ride at nunnery square and get tram in.
  15. If someone is driving and manages to read one of these signs (usually very small writting). I'd say they are bad drivers as not concentrating on the road. If you look at traffic signs the are big and not many works. If a simple sign on entrance said PRIVATE CAR PARK. Then I can understand and people deserve to be fined. But if the private bit of a car park has a sign like this. You may park for a maximum of 15 minutes. If this is exceeded + 400 more words I say fine is not deserved.
  16. Just done quick search here are 3 web sites that details some of the trails. http://www.wharncliffe.info/ http://www.mtbbritain.co.uk/wharncliffe_woods.html http://www.moredirt.co.uk/trail/Yorkshire--Humberside/Wharncliffe-Woods---DH-Trails/222/
  17. Fishing Tennis 2 Gyms Swimming Lesuire Centre including indoor balls Pubs Walks Cycling Tracks in Wharncliffe (international standard) Outdoor bowling Many small clubs including: SWADS (drama), Scuba Diving, Art Clubs etc. And small distance to all facilities in Sheffield and Barnlsey.
  18. It's amazing how the council has said he kept doing work for them during this time & the article have no proof he did not except the main council meeting minutes. It also details he resigned from the excutive not the council so carried on as a counciller until later on. Councillors do a lot more than attend main council meetings. If there was only real substance to this the local papers would have had a field day, but as normal it is a non news story with half facts and bash the politician story.
  19. According to Travel South yorkshire: 0630-1930 Monday to Saturday. Exit after 1930 is permissible with a valid Park & Ride ticket until 2359. http://www.travelsouthyorkshire.com/NR/rdonlyres/7C43381E-BB04-4CCB-919B-DB89DB0E1AC7/0/PaRSheffieldGuide110509.pdf
  20. When I went past the police told a lorry driver it was a suspicious package at rear of fire station.
  21. Put a barrier on entrance. 1st hour free. 1 - 3 hrs Shops validate ticket so don't pay. Above 3 hrs pay £10 That way people know have to pay something / signs next to barrier. High rate after 3 hours to discourage people parking but if do at least make money. But they would not do this as making way too much money at moment.
  22. I think the imortant point was this was not a quick stop and search. The process I heard on BBC Sheffield took up to 1hr as the metal detectors were not in the same place as the people. The question is would you be happy to be stopped and told you have to go to police station and this will take up 1 hour, no excuses. I'm happy for them to set up random metal detectors but not taking up so much time. I was picking someone up from town on Friday night, I would have been very unhappy if poilice had demanded me to go to police station for random check.
  23. I got caught out on this. Went to pre-pay (which could always do for night rate) but would not allow me. Asked the person on duty, all they said was rate no longer available. So left immediatly but they still charged £2.20 for the 5 minutes I spent in the car park . It's bye bye NCP from me also. At least QPark are cheaper and do a night rate.
