I agree with the issue you all have with the local accents. But, unlike Cellar boy I have lived over here in North America for sixteen years and still I am constantly identified as being from South Yorksire. Well, apart from those who think I am an Aussie. My tones are considerably subtle though and I do not use any slang or make the usual mistakes with certain translated words. The problem with certain words over here having different meanings is worth a posting of it's own. Sheffield rocks though, it will always be considered home

In Edmonton it's now minus 25 degrees celsius. Minus 38 with the wind chill factor. It was never that cold in Firth park, Tinsley or Darnell. :shock:

Fairly wealthy and living outside the country.............

We just got 19 cm of snow dumped here in North America in one fell swoop.. There is an additional 11 to 12 cm predicted for tomorrow. How is the weather there?

What would you call the team, Sheffield Thursday?

Mikey I know, Richard told me. So, Attercliffe is actually no better than it was twenty years ago. One could only hope. :oops:

What exactly is a "knockin shop" :oops:

My Dad, watches the sport whenever he can, especially when the West Indies team play. I personally cannot figure the sport out, but suprise, suprise it's becoming a very popular pastime just like soccer in the US and Canada. Why, who knows. Maybe, it's the fact that it's a fast paced game and no gloves are used.

Is Cricket a sport?
