  1. If that so, at Firth Park they must have either missed doing mine or not reached my surname for scanning yet. I can see the last year's appts but nothing of what I saw the GP for and as I say, only allergies and repeat meds. Because of recent illness for most of this year I can see nothing recorded other than the above and I am computer literate and find the site easy to use. I have been a patient since 1952.
  2. You only see your recent appts, repeat medications, any allergies you have etc. If you mean a full med history - no. You can book and choose a doctor for appts but may have to wait nearly a month to get the one you want. Any ongoing chronic illness there is no continuity at all. Different GP each time quite often.
  3. S5 is a large area. We have 3 window cleaners working our area near Lane top and there is a local gardener but he is usually fully booked up.
  4. On ancestry you have the option to keep your tree private and you do not have to display your photo either, plus you can use a pseudonym. For full DNA matches they will need to have had their DNA tested too.
  5. Also Gambles on the Flower estate in the 1950s
  6. Check with Sheffield Archives first. https://www.sheffield.gov.uk/home/libraries-archives/access-archives-local-studies-library
  7. Sheffield Libraries do accept books - if they are not needed for their stock, they would put them on their FOR SALE shelves and us the money to buy new books. I am sure you will get other suggestions too such as local charity shops.
  8. some above the fishing pond usually at the bottom of Herries Rd. Not been down there recently.
  9. I second what grannypat has said. Always buy or copy source documents to verify your research so you don't climb someone else's tree. I researched mine the old way of going to archives in different counties before the advent of the internet. Best thing as I know my tree is correct. Digital copies of certificates can be bought more cheaply here - https://www.gro.gov.uk/ but do ask relatives first - you do not know what they may have squirreled away . Photos to.
  10. Write down everything you do know before paying to use a site such as Ancestry. Ask relatives to tell you what they know. If your family is Sheffield based mainly then use this site for additional help - free indexes to start you off with some things and very helpful people too on the forum. http://www.sheffieldindexers.com/ForumIndex.html
  11. Spots can itch depending why they have appeared in the first place. There is such a thing as heat rash too. I have idiopathic urticaria, meaning I have rashes or spots appear for no known reason and at times they drive me mad itching. Ask at the chemists for something to calm it down maybe you just need a cheap antihistamine tablet or cream. Midges love me and spot me from a mile away so home in on me. I always keep antihistamines handy as I do react badly to their bites.
  12. Litter free streets, parks as they used to be, shopping areas etc, grass verges cut regularly, no overflowing bins and messy frontages, shops made to clean their fronts regularly, tenants and house owners alike made to keep gardens back and front clean and tidy then maybe we would have less rats around. Oh dear I am daydreaming again.........
  13. Cotton sheet between the two?
  14. I know they have a hawk down there to scare off large birds for either safer landing or take off. A friend was there once when it happened and I cannot recall if it was landing or taking off.
