I was at St Matthias school in the 40's until moving on to the Sheffield Tech which was on West Street at that time. I remember a Mr Berrisford was the headmaster when I was at St Matthias. The houses were Chatsworth, Haddon, Wentworth and Loxley. Any one out there who can confirm?

I grew up in Pearl Street and went to St Matthias School. I can remember the Blitz when parts of the street were badly damaged. The Victory Party celebrations when the Street was Decorated with flags across the street. Had some happy times there. My mums family all lived there. We lived at 123 and opposite our house was a big tree that grew in the back garden of a house in Cemetery Rd which we loved to climb.Yes I have many happy memories of Pearl St. My mums family were called Robinson. There was Herbert, Douglas, Ken, and my mother Edna. They all lived in the part of the street that was below Washington Rd. There was a small grocers called Vernons where we got some of the weeks shopping.

I would agree that Renault's from the 80-95 seem to last. I own a Renault 19, 1.4 Energy TS Model. 1989. It's done 89,000 miles, uses very little oil, runs really well. My only complaint is the clutch cables break every 2 years. I changed mine 3 times in the 6 years I have had the car. It's a pig to replace. Even the RAC say this is the main reason for the call out with this car. Does anyone know of a cable that will last?
