Sheffield goths & punks late 70's 80's
firesmudge replied to InSheffNoLon's topic in Sheffield History & Expats
I was one of the gang and remember a few folk hung around with big John and Ange and did Atkinsons for tea and a bun. Loved the Marples gigs and rebels -
Every time I visit Sheffield i always stand at the marples and reflect on the days of innovation, fun, and music. What a place it was so many great people I knew and we were all apart of something that was fantastic but something we did not understand at the time but on reflection what a time in history of music. Never forget some of the people Big John, Rat, Frosty, Dog and many more. I remember we did a photo shoot for a student or journalist at a derelict church for what I can't remember but would love to see the pics. I remember all the many bands and the wallpaper posters with sprayed information advertising the gigs dotted around town. Such happy days loving this thread

Theres nowt odd about a fire in a retail warehouse arson or otherwise. Fire is very damaging and easily can knock a business out of action for some time speculate all you want but it has happened and the reality is that the damage is done

"Police under pressure" bbc tv 9pm 23/6/14
firesmudge replied to watchcoll's topic in Sheffield News & Discussions
My opinion for what its worth about the issues in the program are as follows. There seems to be issues about social deprevation lack of parental control and ethinic tensions. We need to look at how we raise our kids and the values they hold we also need to look at our immigration policies and how the lack of intergration of new communites affect the native population. Before anyone screams racist or social biggot I am a realist our culture is rotten with the lack of control or respect young people have for others and the fact that our diverse communities are at times very insular and not inter grated due to religious or cultural beliefs raises tensions. The destruction of public services due to budget constraints affects us all central goverment have a total dislike for public services and are willing to destroy communities and then wonder why folk are not happy at the lack of police or fire cover and things are getting out of hand. -
It's all Braveheart politics too much thinking with the heart and not the head most folk I know here don't want it most of what your read is media hype talking about something they know nothing about

Smoke alarm testing selfies- win pizza
firesmudge replied to SY Fire's topic in Sheffield News & Discussions
The point is smoke alarms save lives test it or risk it you decide unfortunately if offering a pizza voucher is the only way of getting folk to wake up by bribing them then that is money well spent compared to the cost of the loss of life, house, belongings, emergency response etc. Push your button not your luck -
I remember Cuneo ice cream vans coming down Arbourthorne always got a strawberry cone the guy always wore a pork pie hat and was funny with jokes and banter

Received a parking ticket from a ppc
firesmudge replied to local_lad's topic in Sheffield News & Discussions
Visit this website and read the section on tickets you will find that you will get 3 letters threatening all sorts but nowt happens. Stop the profiteering of companies who use loopholes in the law to extort money via parking charges. Search for the company in question and you will find the answer http://forums.pepipoo.com/ spread the word to all your friends and family and stop the parking rip off that shames this country -
