  1. I might be wrong, but I think they now only do takeaways.
  2. When you're self employed £22.20 per hour isn't enough, even if you got a guaranteed 8 hours at that rate. You've got to cover sickness, van, fuel, holidays, pension, tools, clothes, accountants etc. I know cleaners who charge more than that... and rightly so. As a tradesman, I'd look at minimum of £250/day and ideally £300-£400 / day. The minimum wage shouldn't be used as a barometer for good pay... it isn't. It's an absolute minimum and most people will need support from the state if they are living on that sort of money.
  3. I've got some Greggs Crocs. My mates son bought 'em for me as a joke. But they're brilliant. Super comfy, ideal for the beach and weigh nothing in your suitcase. My missus can't stand the sight of them but I wear them frequently.
  4. Maybe Green King or Spoons need to sort a strategic partnership involving a micropub in every branch of Greggs so they've got the entire golden Mile including the Moor sorted. Some reyt pint of Ruddles/sausage roll combo deals on offer.
  5. I think it looks tremendous. I'm gonna book a night in a room overlooking Peace Gardens and have a weekend pretending to be a tourist in Sheffield.
  6. Perfect for a Greggs' crawl... Nice easy route.
  7. IMO The Museum is bloody awful... dreadful drink options. Miserable staff. I'll never go again. Greene King is a terrible brewery run by accountants who no idea about decent beers.
  8. Maybe you don't. But I like an appropriate, strategic balance of residential, commercial and industrial properties within the city centre... People living in the centre contribute towards a dynamic and lively city, otherwise we just have a souless downtown USA type places that's are quiet after 9pm.
  9. Almost nailed it for me. Just delete the last 2 words and it's perfect. I like a changing selection of cask and keg of different styles and strengths.
  10. I had a pint of Sam Smith's bitter in Arundel about a year ago. Cheap as hell, but absolutely chuffin' awful. Club seemed friendly enough, all blokes though, no ladies.
  11. Not Sheffield but I'm glad to see that the wonky pub that was demolished by new owners in the Midlands is to be rebuilt. I'm definitely off for a pint there when it's been sorted. https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2024/feb/27/owners-who-demolished-crooked-house-pub-after-fire-ordered-to-rebuild-it?CMP=Share_AndroidApp_Other
  12. My favourite pubs are The Union Hotel, Gareth and Sarah and all the staff doing a cracking job. No kids either. The Itchy Pigs, both have a tremendous, ever changing selection of different beers, both cask and keg. The Rising Sun at Fulwood, great choice of beers from Abbeydale Brewery and others. Sheaf View also good, Fat Cat, Kelham Island Tav. Norfolk Arms at Ringinglow. I like pubs where the staff remember your name and what your preferences are for a booze. Not keen on boozing in town although the Head of Steam is OK for pre theatre drinks. Fagans, The Grapes and Dog and Partridge good for Guinness. I've always been told the Hen and Chickens was a bit rough but I've never been in so can't really comment. Not even sure it's still open.
  13. Maybe the Broomhill Itchy Pig? The one at Eccy Road shows the 6 Nations games...
  14. Maybe Irene could offer some free sandwiches and coffees on board with a trolley whilst dressed as Mrs Overall. I'd definitely utilise it then.
