  10. Had a nasty fall causing fracture of skull, ambulance arrived under 4 minutes, into Hallamshire critical unit cannot recall first 4 days, spent 2weeks on K floor then N floor and further 2 weeks in Sheffield relations house. The treatment was beyond belief and the nurses/doctors were incredible. My first time ever in hospital with a serious life threatening injury and my heartfelt thanks go to the staff including everyone. Off South next week to our home with great memories of a proper NHS hospital.Thankyou.

  15. Its going well JAYVEE,had some great times didn't we? we are all well and hope you are too. Saw your old mucker Mick Riley earlier this year...never alters
  16. Yes Susie1 I went to the Park cinema,Lomas Hall and never missed Tuesdays at the Memo, me and about 7 mates always went to the memo in suit and tie to "bop" with the girls. I remember the cups an saucers (pyrex) in the smugglers.
  17. Susie1 I went around the same time as you to the smugglers plus the speedway plus club 60 most saturdays. I was born in 45 so a bit older than you. Bunny was a pal of the "infamous" Keith Littlewood" who would fight anyone. I don't think he had a bike accident i think he was born with the limp etc.
  18. Remember the trips to cleethorpes and the fish & chip tea, Was the fun fair called Wonderland or something similar. It was the nearest a lot of us got to see the sea in the years following the war 1950s.
  19. Did you know the Loy family who lived next door to the Butchers shop?
  20. Been left Sheffield 46 years and the last time I was there I noticed a very old sign on the side of a house between bottom of Parkside Rd and Winster Rd. Its fading now but you can still make out PALINS, it was the newsagents where I used to get the morning Telegraph from in the 50s and 60s Anyone remember it?
  21. I live in Cornwall and as an ex Sheffielder I read the Forum to keep up to date with things. First buses got the contract last year and the service is useless and non existant. We live in a village where a bus is supposed to arrive every 2 hours, well it fails on a daily basis. All the Cornish folk cannot believe the appalling "service" so it must be a Nationwide crap operation..
