  1. Taken from the South Yorkshire Fire & Rescue Facebook page -

     

    Can you help us to track down the families of two firefighters who were killed during the Sheffield blitz?

     

    Norman Elliot, aged 35, and Fredrick Parkes-Spencer, aged 36 were both firefighters with Sheffield Police Fire Brigade on the night of 12 December 1940.

     

    We plan to name two new meeting rooms at our Eyre Street headquarters in memory of the firefighters and would like to let their families know.

    Please respond to the fire service if you have info about the families!


  2. Where can I buy a complete shalwar kameez? Even second hand?

     

    I'm due to go to India at the end of March so I'd like to wear respectable clothing for my trip.

     

    I'll be making a trip to some shops in Sheffield but I'm particularly interested in getting them second hand to cut my costs!

     

    thanks


  3. A blonde/brownish coloured Terrier type dog found at 9pm last night running skittishly across Washington Road (just off Eccy road). Wearing a thin blue collar but no name or microchip. He has very thin hair on his back (almost bald) and has been taken in by a local resident. If he's yours call PDSA on 0114 2433232. If no one comes forward by today he'll be taken to Sheffield City Council kennels.


  4. So I currently use Burton Hall (at the Burton Street foundation, Hillsborough) http://www.burtonstreet.co.uk/eating-and-drinking/functions

     

    It has everything we need:

     

    - transport links including tram

    - free parking

    - wooden floor

    - room big enough to hold 20-30 people (think yoga)

    - available on weekends (either saturday or sunday 12-5)

     

     

    I need a new venue. Somewhere that will honour my booking for the longterm. We're a monthly meeting group, private, not for profit. We don't require any tables/chairs/catering. Our budget is small but can guarantee monthly use with the possibility for more workshops.

     

    A dancehall, room above a pub, community centre, sports hall etc. I've had a look at other threads and got some ideas already but if you or anyone you know owns a space like this, please get in touch!

     

    All ideas welcome!


  5. I have friends over tomorrow evening and looking for a late bar in the city centre. Not a club, but somewhere with a good atmosphere and we're able to chat that's open beyond 11pm.

     

    Any suggestions?

     

    As a side - does anyone know how loud the music is in Bungalows and Bears on a Sat night?

     

    Cheers


  6. I have a compact digital camera - a Casio EX-S12 (it's not a professional one).

     

    Last night I dropped it and now the lens won't open. I can hear the mechanics working its just a bit stuck. I'm pretty sure it can be popped out but I daren't.

     

    So, anyone know of a place in Sheffield?

     

    Thanks


  7. @Ecconoob - simply; jog on mate. I'm not defending myself about what I did or didn't do/see. And I'm not allowing a forum member to otherwise slate it. My complaint is with their behaviour - not assault.

     

    Anyway - I did get a response from M'hall, basically a 'thanks for telling us, we're investigating'... they'll be in touch.

     

    Best outcome - Soap & Co get the boot. Worst outcome, I go to prison for smacking the next gimp that throws a hunk of soap under my nose.


  8. Am I the only person who is absolutely infuriated with these people???

     

    If I want to buy soap, I will enter your shop/area. If I'm walking by, please don't chase me with your poor english, rude gestures and poor quality goods you innate grub!

     

    Seriously, if I want to experience a Turkish market .. I'LL GO TO A TURKISH MARKET!!!

     

    Everyday I see people being dragged in and their body language clearly shows them to be uncomfortable. I saw an elderly lady quite literally being forced these products. The 'assistant' yanked her hand from her pocket to pour some lotion on and you could see she just wanted to leave.

     

    I'm emailing meadowhall now - has anyone else complained and what was the response? Thanks
