Spitfires & Lancasters over Sheffield
Angus Prune replied to WarPig's topic in Sheffield News & Discussions
Sounds like the BBMF Dakota, which did a flypast of Barnsley last Wednesday afternoon: https://www.raf.mod.uk/aircraft/dakota/ Not a bomber, but historically significant nonetheless. -
Saw a few in Filey last week.

Strange aircraft over gleadless
Angus Prune replied to steve1970's topic in Sheffield News & Discussions
The Airbus Beluga transports fly over Sheffield fairly often and FlightRadar24 shows that one did so this morning. They fit the description given. https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/f/f9/Airbus_A300-600ST_Airbus_Industries_(AIB)_%22Join_us%22_Beluga_3_F-GSTC_-_MSN_765_(9741143612).jpg -
I've seen a flyer for this, it's on Saturday 3rd December, 10am - 3pm

People leaving their handbrake off
Angus Prune replied to bertyboop's topic in Sheffield News & Discussions
It's a great idea, but only until (as happened on my old 900) the shift linkage failed at 5pm on Christmas Eve, giving me no option but to leave it parked outside for three days with the key still in the ignition:o The car was still perfectly driveable too, as it was only reverse that couldn't be selected, thankfully the impromptu security device I applied (a beanie hat over the ignition column to hide the key:D) sufficed and it wasn't nicked, as it could very easily have been. My current Saab, a 9-3, doesn't have this feature though and I do miss it a bit. -
A small note to the S10 car part thief
Angus Prune replied to avblade09's topic in Sheffield News & Discussions
Someone once gave me a set of these as a present. They were stolen within 48 hours of being fitted. Never, ever had a plastic one nicked though. -
Illegal parking Handsworth road in a morning !!
Angus Prune replied to trafficman's topic in Sheffield News & Discussions
The parking cones were presumably to do with the repainting of the yellow lines, which was taking place when I left for work just after eight o'clock this morning; they don't seem to have got very far though, by the looks of it... The single yellows have more or less disintegrated on both sides of the road now, leading to a noticeable increase in people failing to notice (or simply ignoring) the time restrictions of late. Although in fairness it's not just parked cars that cause the delays - the traffic on this stretch of road in the mornings has been getting increasingly worse for several years. -
Where to down load a p46 form
Angus Prune replied to kizzyadd3592's topic in Sheffield Business & Employment
Since the introduction of RTI the P46 has effectively become obsolete so isn't officially used any more, hence you won't find it on the HMRC website - it's been replaced by the "Starter Checklist", which can be downloaded from the gov.uk website: https://www.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/374305/starterchecklist.pdf -
Watching Vulcan take off / flight times 2015
Angus Prune replied to Skink's topic in Sheffield News & Discussions
Approximately 1:50pm, dependent on weather etc. Your best bet is to keep checking Twitter on the day: https://twitter.com/xh558 -
Watching Vulcan take off / flight times 2015
Angus Prune replied to Skink's topic in Sheffield News & Discussions
If you head north along the A614, just after Austerfield there's a roundabout, the second exit of which (signed as a dead end) takes you onto a road which runs along the perimeter fence, parallel to the runway: https://www.google.co.uk/maps/@53.459983,-1.006094,3a,75y,4.96h,72.74t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1su-TLLRI2WdpXkJjgWJyuSg!2e0!7i13312!8i6656 -
Road works at Handsworth, any ideas?
Angus Prune replied to Landlord123's topic in Sheffield News & Discussions
I'm usually too busy trying to dodge all the traffic cones and bits of plastic barrier that have been left sticking out (whilst also trying not to get my nearside wing mirror taken off by passing vehicles) to notice the road surface. -
Road works at Handsworth, any ideas?
Angus Prune replied to Landlord123's topic in Sheffield News & Discussions
It's all part of a scheme aimed at improving reliability of the 52 bus route by helping to ease traffic congestion along Handsworth Road. The new part-time traffic lights on the Parkway slip road are part of it too. The current works are to widen the carriageway in order to accommodate the right-turn lane which Bruce_Shark mentioned. Plans can be seen here: http://sheffielddemocracy.moderngov.co.uk/documents/s15744/Appendix%20B.pdf EDIT: Beat me to it!
