had a text from my surgery on Wednesday, phoned them yesterday, appointment on Monday for my yearly check-up. A great service around here...

we meet a couple of friends here for lunch sometimes, no problems at lunchtimes...a busy place..

When I moved to Sheff, I used to frequent the Millhouses pub, where there was a pianist who used to walk around the pub offering everybody a pinch, including all the ladies. Norman the pianist......who has permanent snuff on his lapel s!!

Bullseye, Vera, Midsomer Murders.....

I would give my right arm to be ambidextrous

They could be doing occasional checks on their co-workers....not just the customers. I always use a proper check-out at supermarkets, the last time ...and only time...I checked myself out there was an error, and was grateful that my bag was searched, they found the 'missing' item, I paid, but did not feel any guilt, as I blamed the supermarket for not providing enough checkout staff

We are having SIDs in our village...they are quite effective...they are getting more popular...Dronfield has some...It has taken quite am long time to get permissions etc...but should be worth it...the road through our village is like a race track. Speed Indicator Devices

They might be better having a Boring Sports person of the year....

anything that involves 'celebrity' who on earth is this Rosie Jones? Never heard of her...

I often walk on the old Unstone Line, was used when the coal mines were working...and I often hear the sound of trains...but the scary thing is that the ghostly sounds are of diesel trains, and the Unstone Line was all steam locos. So scary.

The Jolly Sailor in Tamworth, 1968...sadly demolished yonks ago

wandered around yesterday, Fargate is awful, poor folk in wheelchairs or tots in prams....The Moor however seems good, lots of decent shops, good paving.... Lots of roads now closed to traffic, so no chance of holding a Lord Mayor's Parade!!!

I will be there....it is always a good show...

How about a nice smooth surface.?...I feel so sorry for those who are shaken to pieces by the cobbles

I am more aware of the ladies who put far too much 'fragrance' on, they must use half a bottle at a time, overpowering pongs...cannot stand it. A dab behind the ears should be enough.

Oh blimey, plans for a £20 million development of the Castle area....hope none of those involved with the Container Park get involved.....Will Sheffield Council never learn?

let him get on the bus first....let him through, pretend to tie your shoes, or look for something in your handbag...

I went on Tuesday evening....it was superb. It should be fine in London....productions from Liverpool were successful there...

Beats me why folks like this are paid such huge amounts...I do not watch anything he is involved with.

yep, at the moment, I have 'Wind the bobbin up' ringing in my head, having just gone through it with grand daughter...

Yep! Sheer magic!

My 1966 also has one of these, the left side door is fastened shut, so all the heat (!!) comes out of the right side opening... I too dress up to drive it...it's very draughty too!

I was there with my grandkids only a few days ago...the goats were so friendly...which probably didn't help them in this case...

There was one at the top end of Devonshire Green...do not know if it's still there...

I stopped watching it after they killed off Harold Bishop.
