Hi. After trying to get more info regarding a facility at Hillsborough children's centre, I've been informed its closed. What a shame. When did this happen? And why? Just due to cuts or following the bad Ofsted? I'm going to Shooters Groce instead, but just curious about Hillsborough.

Last I heard was that the owners of Harios had bought the building with the intention of transforming it into a Harios foodie place. But the parking was inadequate and so permission denied. I assumed they were digging out to increase the size of the car park

It's only liquids that need to be put in clear plastic bags. Those snacks you listed are fine in your hand luggage. We took loads recently for our 2 kids - sandwiches, sweets, fruit, raisins, biscuits

Read it again. He's talking about someone else posting a fb photo. He has no control over anyone else's settings

Pre-sale tickets were just through arctic monkeys website - I got an email as I guess I subscribed to something a while back. Standing were 38.50 each

Yep, got my tickets this morning on pre-sale. Very pleased

You've not answered the question - what do you hope to get out of a complaint??

The place is very badly run. The staff are slow and unhelpful (I worked in a soft play when I was younger so appreciate the mundanity of the job, but still), something as simple as getting a hugely overpriced drink takes an eternity, and the manageress is openly rude about her own staff and customers. My children go if they've been invited to a party but that's it. And I'd advise anyone to avoid especially after reading this info re first aid

I'm in S35(Oughtibridge) and can't recall seeing that

I got taxis for both of my labours. They were fine

They did park elsewhere. And didn't have enough space to get child in easily.

Parent and toddler spaces are not next to the entrances. Distance is not the issue so pleaw don't throw in that crap argument. It's about the size of the space

Around 12 months here too for both of mine

Your comment implied the op was foolish for leaving their shopping so late, when they were actually there for work, not shopping

Same message here

I'm in S35 and as of recently I also get no BBC. I've rescanned, wiped everything and scanned from new, unplugged anything which may interfere... Nothing works!

Both car parks were full for us second time round so hubby had to drop me off and drive around!

Prams are allowed but the main building has lots and lots of steps and other parts are fairly small/tightly packed so it might be tricky

I think you're unlikely to get into Oughtibridge as you're not in catchment. Doesn't stop you applying but just think carefully about it, it could cost you a place in a preferred school

I'm at Fairlawns and its fine. They now do same day appts (rather than the old triage system) if you call early enough - around 815. I've no complaints

Yes. This. :thumbsup:

I had my back screen replaced (as the camera was unusable) by fonefunshop.co.uk. They are Sheffield based and I'd highly recommend them

yes you need to contact PALS http://www.sheffield.nhs.uk/pals/

Hi. Does anyone know the length of the pool (Lane swimming) at Hillsborough leisure centre?

We got one from halfords. They have a small variety - take a look on their website
