Hi all Firstly why are Sheffield council so useless, they frustrate the life out of me so thought id ask for advice here. My son moved to a shared house with 3 other students, my son works at my work as an apprentice on £6 per hour, he has been in there for 3 months and got a bill from Sheffield council for council tax, i rang up to ask if he was exempt to be told they will send an exemption form to fill in, we got it but are unsure weather it's student exempt or apprentice discount. In true form ive tried Sheffield council every day at work on my dinner break for the last 2 weeks to either be hung up 30 minutes into it or no answer, i tried sending an online contract form from their website afew times but it said internal 500 error, as i wrote this ive been on hold for 37 minutes until it cut me off saying it's now closed. <removed>, just answer the bloody phone or invest in more people. Anyway can anyone help, rant over

Hi Guys, its probably a bit late now but i want to get my partner a canvas with our children on it, does anyone know anywhere that does a quick turnaround? Only place ive seen is max speilman but it looks like 21 days order. cheers Mark

True, don't go for a ready made set as like grand says they just chuck any thing in the package and it wont be trustworthy. Problem with underground car parks is getting noticed but its fantastic there if you dont ;-)

Oh crikey mate that's a big question, there are loads out there but I have a zmr250 frame with afro escs , dys motors, naze32 flight controller , flysky transmitter and quanum v2 goggles, all bought from hobbyking. Everyone's different and setups are different too but it's loads of fun though

Hi guys Don't know if this is in the right section but I'm wondering if anyone north Sheffield races quads? I myself race 250 size fpv quads and and the only place I know is with a few friends in dronfield but it's a long travel for a few short races so I find myself a field away from everywhere and have a blast. So either are there any clubs around here (Foxhill) or does anyone have race meetings somewhere around here. Sounds a strange request but maybe someone is in the same position as me. Cheers

Just looking towards Sheffield center from foxhill and theres loads of smoke , from what I can see its near the ski village but might be wrong, anyone know what it is Cheers

Ye, saw about 3 incident units (ambulances and fire truck) speeding past me on Halifax rd hope all involved are OK Mark

I went to the tip yesterday (Saturday) and noticed they are picketing out there, to be frank it was chaos, they had security there directing cars and the management(apparently) helping the people separate their recycling. Its the first time too ive seen a refuse truck there, we had to give our mixed bags to a poor guy who separated it into his truck. I'm just wondering what people think of this, they are picketing as the council want to cut hours of 5 dump-it sites in Sheffield and from what i got told only open weekends and only for a few hours. Do people think about this before they act? what's going to happen if certain people cant get to the tip to 'dump' their recycling??? like the guy in the tip said 'they will fly tip it' , then we will have crap all over our city and the council wont be able to keep up with cleaning it all up. Rant over Mark
