I hear that, would never drink and drive so have had to endure sitting on the 52 as me bum goes numb whenever meeting up with friends.

Train is best but nothing stopping in Woodhouse at mo due to flood damage at Kiverton. Asked in Sheffield station a week ago and they're hoping to be running by mid Sept. Not much help I now I know sorry.

Tenby in Welsh is Dinbych Y Pysgod which when translated to English means Little Port of the Fishes. So where Tenby comes from I am clueless.

I have been asked by Bloomen wonderful to start a topic regarding this issue to bring it to more peoples attention. As Bloomen wonderful seems to now more about it I have copied a statement she posted regarding this issue on another thread. Bloomen wonderful is leading a campaign against it so if you wish to now more PM her as I have not posted her e mail here. Network rail are are planning to build their National Engineering Centre, also being described as The New Woodhouse Junction. 'Any one you ask will tell you woodhouse Junction is at woodhouse.Mention The New Woodhouse Junction to anyone,and they think it's going to be a new station,NOT this Factory Comlexe ,this planning application has been give this name in order to raise as few objections as possible. This planning application is being quiteley ushered through its' public consultation period in the hope that objections will be kept to a minimum. It will have a huge impact on the valley between Woodhouse, Woodhouse Mill, Swallownest and Beighton,yet many of these areas have not been informed about what is going to be built in the valley. The new estate in Swallownest, many of which are three storey homes, which over look Woodhouse washlands and the flood plane, are Rotherham residents, and it would appear know nothing about this huge factory complex 60 feet high and stretching from Beighton signal box {level crossing on Rotherham Road}to Soap House lane at Woodhouse, with at least seven chimneys and assorted air vents along a vast area of roof. The access to the area will be off Rotherham Road, at the level crossing, which is causing a great deal of concern as Woodhouse Lane in Beighton is already a rat run for vehicles,wanting to avoid the compulsory left turn onto the by pass from Rotherham Road. The amount of traffic which will be generated by this two, possibly three shift operation will only add to the on going problems with buses and lorries using it as a short cut. We had a public meeting last tuesday,Cllr Ian Saunders arranged it after much pressure from residents of woodhouse lane and the surrounding area,but it was a farce, Network rail and planning officers were present, but we had to endure a propagander exercise from Network Rail, and the plans showing how huge and how much this complexe will impact on our little valley were not.I passed a photo copy of a computer generated image around the assembled meeting and every one was shocked. I had requested that Clive Betts arrange for Highways, Water Board and the Environment agencies have representatives available for comments and questions, but none were there. The recent floods on Woodhouse Lane, one of which could most certainly have been avoided had Network Rail took heed of the weather forecast, has created a much different scenario to the one which is in the planning applications file, their flood risk assessment was undertaken in March, prior to the unprecedented rainfall which we are now experiencing. We need strong assurances that we will not become another Catcliffe. I would like you to let the people of Sheffield and is neighbours, and also anyone who is interested in the Washlands and Beighton Marsh as a nature reserve, know about the Planning application,they must object,this area is GREEN BELT. The Government allowed Network Rail to sell off sites in the area,Tinsey and Brinsworth, which this complex could have been built on without infringeing the planning laws or the Green Belt. So why should Sheffield Council allow it to be built in this valley,which is part of the Green Corrider linking Rothervalley Country Park to the Shire Brook Valley.Anyone who walks in the park ,will have a clear veiw of its roof and chimneys,and the noise will carry over long distances. This area prides its self on rising like a phonex from the ashes of the coalfields. So why should we once again be plunged back into an Industrial Site. Network Rail is dangling a carrot of 160 jobs, but not telling the public the truth,these posts will be taken by personal being redeployed from plants which are going to be closed elsewhere in the country. Nothing can be gained from this project, but a little piece of countryside on the edge of the River Rother could be lost forever. Thank you for taking the time to read this, and if you require further information on the plans; they are available on site at sheffield planning dept. Application reference number 07/02060/FUL, you can and must object to this happening ,ether by post or online at Sheffield.gov.uk/planning,even though it says the objection period is now closed I have been assured that all objections received up untill 12O clock on the day of the planning meeting will be taken note of.

Will Young, nassally, boring and worst of all overrated by himself

I'm outgoing confident and will talk to anyone and yet every new job I've started I have felt exactly as you do, even when I've been more experienced in the job than the new people I'm with. The problem is everyone seems to share a connection, a history so you think you'll never fit in. It's also really difficult to open up and be yourself in front of people you don't know and as such people hold a lot of themselves back at first. Usually it works and and before you know it you'll click with someone. Did you meet all your current friends in uni in the first week or did they just come naturally in time? Keep in mind why your there and don't let it taint your aspirations. As for the race issue, above post is spot on, things like that have a way of festering.

The Sound Of Music 'its a short cut, it's supposed to be a challenge. if it was easy it would just be the way'

That's harsh and funny. Not sure about the book but sounds right. Try this one, remember when i was really young first hearing the phrase 'put a man on the moon' and that it was America that did it. Took this literally and assumed they'd just put him up there as some sort of punishment and he was still there.

They've all got phones

Why are there so many Smiths' in the phone book?

Do you remember anything daft you believed when you were young? Was opening a tin of tuna today and remember when i was a kid i thought that dolphin friendly tuna meant the fish in the tin were friends with dolphins and as such why would anyone want to brag about killing dolphins friends. Anyone remember any gems?
