  1. Yeah! 5.30am & on Manor Oaks Rosd on the Wybourn I heard a huge explosion. Thought it was a gas leak explosion. Strewth.
  2. Yes it is a mosque. How totaly & utterly horrible & depressing. The shape of things to come?
  3. What a coinceidence dying on comic releif day. Very sad. Agreat & original commediene. RIP
  4. Those pictures of sheffield are really lovely except the one of Arundel gate. Its that type of architecture, which to me is really ugly & deppresing. I get the bus to Dronfield from that part of Arundel gate & I just think it looks so cheap & totaly ugly as sin.
  5. I know this is not a restaurant but it is near the University of Sheffield. How about Johns sandwich van on Houndsfield Road. Big portions big selection & quite cheap.
  6. Work directly opposite this slab of a building, approx. 80 yards. Can see it as I write this. Built 1966. & has remained an eyesore ever since. Foul structure.
  7. And no 22 bus will cease after 9.00pm. GREAT!
  8. So you saw it as well. Who & where was the artist from. It was in seriousness an interesting work. We kept a bleary eye on it going both ways across the Mersey. I would like to look this up on the web. Thanks Dameon
  9. Damon. That was an excellent response. Thanks. I was in Liverpool last year & this Danish or Swedish, cant remember, artist had an outside exhibition in front of The Liver buildings. It consisted of a construction of a house. The thing that everybody comented on was the proufound effect it had on them, me & my woman included. It was the colour. It was a Very intense luminous red. It had a considerable emmetic quality about it. Me & ma girl had been around Liverpool eating & drinking all day & viewed this work directly before boarding the ferry. Felt better out of the glare of the luminous red though even walking away from the house could feel the penetrating red glow on the back of my head. Ok on ferry though. Good job exhibition was not on the ferry.
  10. But how has this person been lionised by the state in the form of a knight hood? Hoe do people make a respectful reputation & a VERY lucrative career as an ''artist''? I cant even draw a straight line, without the aid of a rule. I am artisticaly talantless admitedly. How can I break into this profitable sphere? I suspect the people who are engaged in this knows its crap. Is it a way of creating a false economy where by these things are produced, for nothing, then one art critic in London or Paris or New York praising this ''work of art'' saying its worth X amount of £ then the ball starts rolling. Lets face it how many times a millenia does a Great artis like Constable, Monet, Da Vinci or,,,,,wait for it a Caro, is that is name come along?
  11. It realy does look ''dull, dull, dull.'' Ok. though. But what is it suposed to represent & what sort of feeling is it meant to evoke? Please some one tell us '' stupid unsofisticated peasants'' what we are missing? Even if say you dont like perhaps the statue of Vulcan on the town hall cupola at least, even from a distance you can appreciate who ever created it the skill required in making it. But. As they say, '' I'me no expert,Er,,,,,,, like.''
  12. Walking man took a hike, thankfully. Used to look amusing though when saw him with fag dangling from mouth. Must have got bored & p****d off standing there all day & night in the cold, generaly been taken the p**s out of & generaly being disliked. Poor sod.
  13. Did Theflyfish leave the buildingvia flying through the air or swimming through water.? I want to know.
  14. Horrific! Hideouse! Ugly! Vile! Another annonyous crap depressing uninspiring cheapo, piled up for profit, block / blot to make the City cenrte uven more dreary. Er. I dont like it.
  15. So these people are being mistreeted? Oh dear they will no doubt want to leave the country & seek ''asylum'' somewhere else will they? Like not.
  16. The engineer responsible for designing the Forth bridge was from Sheffield.
  17. Also The Sportsman on Denby Street on match days as he is ''a hundred per cent blade.''
  18. I want weekend work either cleaning or kitchen portering. I am experienced in these to fields. Can anyone help? Thanks
  19. What about liquorice, is that how you spell it? allsorts & jelly babies.
  20. Yeah! 5_Hats. I noticed that too. So! is he tops or mediocre. He is good on the radio but me thinks he restrains himself cos of the time of day his programme is on.
  21. So what sort of style does he come across as? Is it gags or stories or satire? Is he like say, Bob Monkhouse, Manning, Alexie Sayle or or Eddie Isard?
  22. Is there a comedy club at The Lescar pub? What is it like & what is Toby Foster like as a comedian?
  23. Does any one have any recollections about The Talbot Inn on Talbot road / Duke Street. My grand parents used to run this place then my mother & father took it over in the mid 60s. It had a compulery purchase issued on it as the council wanted to widen the road. The road widening never took place, so another lovely building is lost from Sheffield. It was a stone fronted bow shaped building with a court yard. I think nowdays could have been grade 2 listed. Does any one know where I can get a picture of The Talbot. My parents name is Jack & Audrey Black.
