  1. Sounds just like the airport farce. Remove facilities so it can't be used then claim lack of use as grounds for closure.
  2. Nichola2, I used Hidi Garage just off Newhall road in Attercliffe for a Skoda Octavia. They converted the dual mass into a single mass at half the price Skoda wanted to charge. 07990821024 ask for chris. Been running it over six months now without any issues. Dual mass was an expensive way of doing something simple, car feels no different with solid flywheel and any subsequent clutch changes will be cheaper too. Most manufactures recommend changing the DMF every time a clutch is done.
  3. I heard Barry from Hawleys had gone to RCK, might alter your research a bit.
  4. I used to deliver into thr M o G in the nineties. It was pretty much dying on its feet then. Interesting to note on the new website is the copyright date.....2015. The info may be out of date but someone is keeping the website alive
  5. Clarkes and Partners at Orgreave are listed as agents on the Lodgeson website CLARK AND PARTNERS 1 ORGREAVE WAY SHEFFIELD S13 9LS TEL: 01142 293 399 EMAIL: [email protected]
  6. Steve found an obscure fault on my bike after I gave up in frustration. Good, experienced mech who won't charge you silly money. Stuart at Bill Beevors is a top bloke too. Either one would be my recommendation.
  7. I think the idea is to improve the traffic flow into town on Penistone road. If you make all the traffic wait up Halifax road then there won't be any congestion on Penistone road cos no one can get to it. Objective achieved!!!!
  8. Corkyballs, don't know where abouts in Sheffield you are but Sheffield Engine Services next to the Asda on Middlewood road/Catchbar lane do all that type of work. Done some bits for me in the past and never had any complaints.
  9. Just a thought. Have you considered TIG welding rods. these come in different grades and sizes. There are a number of welding supplies companies in Sheffield that may be able to help.
  10. Or the black line if you wanted rivets,
  11. I don't deny that. However if you listen to the Liverpool version of events, there wasn't a single fan who had been drinking that day.
  12. In pre inquest hearings the police solicitors have suggested that alcohol played a part in the events of that day. Even though they state that the victims were not suspected to be under the influence, only that other drunken fans may have been involved, the reaction from Liverpool has been predictable howls of outrage. I hope the inquest takes evidence from the residents of Hillsborough and the surrounding areas who witnessed drunken Liverpool fans leaving pubs as late as ten to three. There are people walking round Liverpool with these deaths on their conscience and I just wish that, for once, the Hillsborough campaign would acknowledge that fact.
  13. Funny this, I was in Barnsley last night and it was somebody around Gawber. Perhaps it's a county wide syndicate.
  14. Try this, If you have a rear wheel go flat on a Picasso you have to jack the back of the car up to get the spare out, where's the jack stowed? in a little plastic box inside the spare wheel. It's like keeping the spare safe keys in the safe. Only the French!!!!
  15. Just out of interest, how much is it going to cost to refurbish Woodburn Road to an adequate Olympic standard training facility. I'll bet it comes to more than 700,000, and then of course there's the actual cost of closing and demolishing DVS. Where is the saving then? 700k wont go far
  16. Does any one know the decision over Stocksbridge Leisure Centre
  17. Slightly off topic but Planner1 seems to know a lot in this field so why are motorbikes allowed to use bus lanes but can't actually go through the gates. I've been told its because of the signs, which seems a bit strange
  18. IXL didn't open his shop until the eighties, after CB27/81 came in. Are you thinking of Dave Eller AKA Prussian who had his shop on Langsett Road, ERS Services.
  19. There is a thread about Walter http://www.sheffieldforum.co.uk/showthread.php?t=213134
  20. Try L&TA at the Attercliffe end of Stevenson Road. http://www.ltasheffield.com/home.php
  21. Just a thought if you're heading south and you are flexible, Bristol, take in docks and SS Great Britain, across Mendips and take in Cheddar Gorge (like Winnat's Pass on steroids), over to Glastonbury and the Tor, reputedly the ancient isle of Avalon, Wells and its cathedral then head east to the Thames valley to London via Oxford. Throw in a couple of country pub B&B overnights for a taste of England before hitting the tourist hell that is London
  22. open again, got some offers on boards by the way
