Shocking taxi service by Shefftax
HomeJames replied to mowith's topic in Sheffield News & Discussions
Its simple really. If you book with a bigger firm like RCA or Mercury then law of averages say there will be a car in the area. It doesn't matter if you book a year in advance IF a car isn't in the vicinity then they won't come. So best sticking to RCA/Mercury. Sometimes they might let you down but at least you have a decent chance of getting one on time with so many cars on their books. -
Sc*mbags on Mansfield Road - why me?
HomeJames replied to Alemonster's topic in Sheffield News & Discussions
And chances are we the british taxpayer as usual will have to pay for these scrotes for their lifetime of crime and unemployment -
Well i'll put in my tuppence for what its worth. I drive the snake prob about 12 times a week and know the road blindfolded(joke to the pc brigade). There are quite a few overtaking spots which can be done safely if deemed necessary. And at night its even safer as you can see far far ahead. Occasionally i've had the mad commuter tailgating me even when i've been doing the speed limit and then doing some mad overtaking on a blindish bend which is unnecessary and stupid. BUt i have to say some people drive about 20-30 mph over that road which is too slow IMHO. They might do it for just leisurely reasons but when you see them slow down to 20 mph on a sweeping bend you have to wonder lol. These 'snails' gradually get 20- 30 vehicles behind them which will evitably lead to overtaking etc. Maybe really slow drivers should be taught to pull over now and then to let more confident drivers get pass? Like i said just my tuppence worth

Perosonally going to the mosque will get you nowwhere unless you ask them all to line up for an ID parade. I would have probably called the police straight away if they looked up to no good and then the old bill could have dealt with th matter there and then.

Ignorant Drivers on snake pass
HomeJames replied to HomeJames's topic in Sheffield News & Discussions
Can i please point out that this incident happened at 11.05 a.m in the morning. Yes people in broad daylight!!!!!! I could clearly see she was in a state and chances r there wasn't a madman hiding in her car. Even if it was nighttime it wouldn't have changed matters. Leaving someone hysterical at the roadside is a cowardly act in my book. Imagine how she felt thinking all these motorists don't give a dam. If it was your daughter how would you feel? Chances of getting jumped are one in a million compared to it being a REAL incident. TBH i thought this thread would have been a shame on the guys who didn't stop to help but strange how things turn out -
Ignorant Drivers on snake pass
HomeJames replied to HomeJames's topic in Sheffield News & Discussions
so a woman crying in broad daylight with her car on hazard lights waving like mad for someone to stop is a 'can of worms'? God help us all if people think like that. Just shows how paranoid society has become. -
Ignorant Drivers on snake pass
HomeJames replied to HomeJames's topic in Sheffield News & Discussions
about an hour ago. Her car could be clearly seen with hazard lights on so trap doesn't come into it. Its just another 'i can't be bothered to help' syndrome. -
Just always makes me wonder what sort of people drive past a hysterical sobbing woman at the summit of snake Pass whose been trying to flag down traffic for half an hour. Prior to this she had narrowly missed a head on accident and punctured her tyre hitting the kerb. She had no phone signal and wasn't able to change the tyre. After 30 mins in the freezing weather she was pretty much hysterical. I saw 2 drivers actually move to other side of the road to avoid her. I don't expect a medal for stopping but just can't help wonder why it takes 30 mins for a motorist to aid someone especially a damsel???

How long did it take you to get home last night?
HomeJames replied to simondjuk's topic in Sheffield News & Discussions
Well i set off from sheffield city centre at half five going to Liverpool. Got to Trafford centre on the M60 at 7 oclock then hit wall to wall gridlock. HGV's had overturned on the M62. Did one mile in two and a half hours. Nothing was moving. :loopy: . There was no way of getting to liverpool and both carriageways were blocked so turned around and dropped my passengers off at Manchester Airport. Got back in Sheffield at half eleven. Personally i think HGV's should be banned from driving in high winds as they cause chaos on our roads. harsh but true -
Fog Lights in the hissing rain; a complete joy!
HomeJames replied to ArtfulDodger's topic in General Discussions
Have to say just been over snake this morning and there was a trail of traffic following a slow van. I was maybe tenth car in the row. Two people infront had their foggies on and it made the journey worse. My eyes were squinting through their glare lol. Weather was abysmal so no chance of overtaking even on the straight bits to get past these blackpool illuminations. Thank God Terry Wogan came to my rescue -

Paranormal Activity in Sheffield House
HomeJames replied to HomeJames's topic in Sheffield News & Discussions
She told me she was watching telly, her friend called and she noticed this plastic freezer bag on the floor. Although she hadn't seen it in the house before. She then decided to ask the spirit in her house to try to move it across the room(video it)and thats what happened. A couple previously lived in the house and the husband died. She took the house off the widow. Maybe its him who knows -

HomeJames replied to HomeJames's topic in Sheffield News & Discussions
Yes there's an F word on. Maybe i'd of said the same who knows. Sorry Jen if it offends. anyway for a lady who 'sold' herself whilst in wedlock on this forum i think thats abit rich I agree the quality ain't all that. Also it should be turned clockwise 90 degrees so it looks better. And i did view it after a skinful. It is genuine though as I know the house and it does have alot of activity. Anyway what were you expecting? LOL Cheers anyway Carpet Viper for hosting anyway even if it ain't all that -

Pizza Hut - High Street - Rant
HomeJames replied to KJ_VENOM's topic in Sheffield News & Discussions
pizzahut at crookes is pretty bad. they are always out of pizza bases around 9 p.m and have a habit of giving you little topping on your pizza. I have to ask for extra cheese for fear of getting none on a normal one. Don't fancy complaining as we all know what they'll do to it -

Right this minute I've got my mobile connected to the PC. Its a W810i. However the dam thing doesn't want to connect for some reason. Some sort of driver problem i fink. let me get it sorted then its on and i'll get my flame suit ready Update- still got to get it connected.should be relatively simple process of usb connection to pc but still says searching for connection. my mobile shows the connection is active. Christ how hard can it get lol. -
Its goes to fare and half on New Years Eve/Day xmas Day and Boxing Day. Queens road to Middlewood on a normal taxi fare would be around 8-10 quid so it would be around £15. Its a blatant rip off. We had a few drivers like this on a big taxi company where i used to work. One fare i collected a person from Penistone. I charged her around £20-25 and she told me that was cheap. The driver who took her out charged her £48!!!!!!! This sort of stuff gives us drivers a bad name. Companies really should be accountable for this sort of stuff or sack the driver. I've even had arguments with a black cab driver when he wanted to turn his meter off and charge me ten quid to get back to walkley from west st.

Paranormal Activity in Sheffield House
HomeJames replied to HomeJames's topic in Sheffield News & Discussions
the bag actually moves over the room to some shoes lying infront of the telly(where this large bright orb mist stuff is). Funny thing is you can hear my sis in law asking the presence or whatever to do something like move the bag and it does. I've asked her if she has bought a windmachine previous to this If anyone wants to host the dam thing i can send and am clueless how to get it on pc or will take forever -

ok back again lol. FInally got the movie sent to my phone. Had to change my old one for a better one. Now to get the dam thing put onto video so people can view it. (might take another day)Its viewed better in a dark room- its essentially a bag moving across the living room then going into an orb type of thing. You can hear my sister in law swear as she takes it on her phone. The house in question isn't council but around 20 years old and on a new housing estate. Infact it anyone wants to host it i can send em it on my phone. Would also be good if they could turn the movie around 90 degrees as its alot clearer as she took it at an angle.
