I presume the customer eventually ends up paying for it, and also tax-deductable? -
Smartphones For Kids, Do They All Have Them At Secondary School ?
carosio replied to Chekhov's topic in General Discussions
A friend of mine's 8 yr old grandson has one, never off it when away from home, seems to be watching some kind of games, all you can hear is some guy with an American accent talking load of rubbish. When at home, it's the X-Box. -
Pleasant day on Firth Park Rd in June, 1958

Page Hall has taken gold, however if you travel round many other places are heavily littered; along Wordsworth Avenue between Southey Green Rd up and the Asda the (school kids adds to it); various parts of Parson Cross you will see black bags of rubbish that's been dumped.

True, but to be fair, some of our home-grown ones aren't too particular in other areas of Sheffield!

Looks perfectly ok to me...

just to balance things up...

I thought that, but there were two gasholders there, another was on Effingham Rd S9. Also, if pic was taken from the west (Walkley area) the skyline would be top of Parkwood springs, which it isn't. If pic was taken from the east (Parkwood) then the building on the left skyline could be Arts Tower, the one to the right of pic could be hospital and one to left of it, some flats? Image could have been reversed? Update - I somehow missed Ted W's post, I thought the buildings and skyline didnt add-up for Sheffield.

ok, thats one on my list.

That's for Jaguar body shop specialist!

Not a for car but a motorcycle tank, preferably S6/5/ Ecclesfield area or near.

An interesting (for some!) article on the subject. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cultural_Christians

I agree. When a vacuum is formed, others will fill the void. The CofE is a rather benign branch of Christianity, us older ones have been versed in its culture which for the large part was ok, and even if we rejected the miraculous element of Biblical scripture and didn't attend church etc, we went along with life as "cultural" Christians.

Jesus of Nazareth was particularly despised by the priesthood because (amongst other things) he claimed to be the Jewish Messiah and was a deity therefore perceived to be a threat. In some parts of the world, people are still burnt/hacked to death because they identify as a Christian.

The Archbishop also said that the Resurrection was 'amongst the most certain facts in history'. I'm not sure which facts he's referring to.

Barney Goodman down the Moor, those were the days.

Does that include the Beatle jacket, crepe sole shoes and drainpipe trouses?

It's a stretch of the imagination to think that the Ukraine war was started purely in the interests of major corporations, or China threatening Taiwan, or Assad in Syria. In the aftermath, when re-building takes place, it is likely that many foreign firms will be awarded contracts, consequently many will benefit such as the workers for these companies, the tax taken, and perhaps even people on here might benefit.

How about a very manly army shoulder satchel?

The park opposite the 3 Tuns is the bigger underground park which I think is operated by Bank parking, there is a smaller pay and display further down Silver St, possibly Council. Bank Parking appear to be members of the IPC, (most are members of the BPA- British Parking Association. Some say the IPC was set up because the BPA was allowing too many appeals and some companies didn't like it, so beware of this organisation.

Some might, but the Ukranians (and most counties) would disagree and they knew an invasion might come ever since the Russians invaded Crimea. The Chinese are benefiting because they are buying cheaper oil and gas, plus they probably favour a weaker Russia. Also, they see that Europe is having to give all its attention to the war. If Moscow had been successful in capturing Kiev, they would have have had Nato on their borders anyhow. From what I have seen and heard, I wouldn't believe anything the Russians say.
-
yes, could be that one, although OP says it's a small park and this one is, AFAIK, is a large one undergound.
-
But you're pretty! And so are you!

Does anyone know where exactly this park is, the Grapes is on Trippet Lane and I can't (using google) see any park nearby. Some info on the company here: https://moneynerd.co.uk/bank-park/
