I remember going to the Alley in Birley ( at the bottom of the hill just after the lights .) in 1963 I'd just passed my test ..and petrol was 2/6 a gallon..trying to get a lane at midnight..it was the thing to do then...

So obviously you are the sort of person who would have claimed the wallet even if it hadn't been yours just in the hope there might have been some cash in..and think everyone is of the same mind as you..petty and dishonest:loopy:

a very cynical comment....sounds like an accusation......mind you ..you were the one that asked if there was any cash.....there wasn't..just travel docs

my father was born in Havelock Square in 1910 ...my grandfather had moved there in 1901 and I believe they had a live in maid ..he moved out in about 1925 I believe ..Its still a beautiful area and there are some fantastic houses there mainly in private hands..the main problem now seems to be the parking ...the poor students..

Are we being softened up for a congestion charge?
DaveD replied to WeX's topic in Sheffield News & Discussions
went out for a meal last night on Sharrowvale road...lots of empty spaces at 8pm but I had to park on the single yellow line or pay 50p ..for half an hour .as an earlier poster said ..has the council got shares in Meadowhall or do they want us to have takeaways and do all our shopping on the internet..the labour group have NEVER been in favour of the car...maybe they will re introduce the man with the red flag -
Did Anyone Travel From Sheffield Victoria Station ?
DaveD replied to Victoria Stn's topic in Sheffield History & Expats
I think I must have been one of the last passengers to alight at Victoria Station...,,In 1973 there was flooding on the Hope valley line and Midland station was closed so they ran a train.(or trains ) through the Woodhead tunnel and we got off at a very sad looking Victoria Station -
It wasnt in t'ole int road...it was on King ST opposite Sexy Rexy's
