i think a forum group on family history research would be a great idea

Omg! Never seen it this bad. I lve in s20 and the road and pavements are deathly. Think I might tram and train it today.

phoenix pub on white lane is nice, mosboro hall is nice too !

My Dad worked there in the 80's and 90's i think. Kenneth Roberts - anybody remember him ??

then aida at the city hall next weekend (not really a gig - but looking forward to it all the same)

I think community sums it up. You can live in an area or district but if there is no community then it is faceless and does not conjure up any memories.

 

I came from Owlerton a group of streets opposite Hillsborough park.

 

The people who lived in those streets all knew each oher, many families inter marrying which made even close ties.

 

Living in yards also created a close knit community and once living in these areas you never forget the people there.

 

I have travelled extensively and in my memory the people I lived amongst as a kid were the salt of the earth.

 

There wasn't the 'Dog eat Dog' attitude that the likes of Thatcher championed and is prevalent amongst a lot of people today

EDWARD WOODWARD played hardnut secret service "loose cannon" moping and snarling his way through Cold War Britain occasionally assisted by smelly sidekick called Lonely. Seminal in every sense, not least the swinging bare light bulb opening titles.

it's all gone a bit quiet... did she respond ? has he been fired ??

OMG - thunder have announced their last ever tour - on their 20th anniversary year.

 

they are coming to sheffield city hall on 4th july

 

just what am i going to do without my annual danny pilgrimage ????

i went for tea on friday, and would echo most of the comments on here.

its really cheap and you get lots for your money!

 

on the more critical side.... i felt the chicken was not the best quality meat and the hot and spicy dishes were not that hot and spicy !

 

but if you are looking for cheap quick and cheerful - then you can't go too wrong here.

here is the link to the webpage mentioned above - giving a bit more detail about the sculptor etc...

have you tried any of the old census records - to see if davys cottages are given as an address ??

I stand corrected - glad you enjoyed the food - by way of an apology i will go there for a meal and eat my words.

 

sorry !!!

there is another old thread about class - which is much more interesting and less about trolling..... off to see if i can find it...

No silly replies please

 

surely if she was that good ... she would find you .....

 

(sorry couldn't help it - but it nudged your post back up to the top !!)

only a few posts and plugging a new restaurant - do you work there perhaps ????

i used the website and they came within a week to fix it.

I thought it was good easy service actuallly. quite suprised me !

I think it depends on the individual child to be honest.

 

different kids mature at different ages. So one persons 10 year old daughter may be mature and responsible enough to make the decision and keep it clean afterwards. The only person who can reasonably know whether the person can cope or not are the parents who know them well.

 

So i think it is down to parental/personal choice.

found a bit too quick...... i think......
