A la prochaine a sheffield - il fait beau encore ici a Nice. Le soleil brille la plupart du temps, les filles sont belle mais il fait trop cher!!! J'espere que la neige crée effectivement un paradis d'hiver celle-la.

 

Bonne journée a tous!!!

 

lol i put it in a translator and this came up

 

'To the next one has sheffield - it is nice out again here has Nice. The sun shines most of the time, the girls are beautiful but it does too dear!!! I J'espere that the snow creates effectively a winter paradise the one it.

 

Good day has all!!!'

Blake Street is definately the steepest but as I have to walk up Hawthorn Road in Hillsborough everyday to school I'll vouch for that being a killer too!!!

 

It kinda lulls you into a false sense of security then half way up it seems to bed at 90 degrees!!!

Fox Hill (off Rock Street, S3 NOT S6) has to be up there somewhere. Thankfully its not very long, which is just as well as mine's the top house! The pavements have hand-rails and ridged paving slabs, presumably to make it less slippery in cold weather. I got in my car after a snowfall and the thing slid down the hill into the fence at the bottom - I hadn't even put my key in the ignition, but it buggered my no claims!

My money`s on Blake St.

I think it featured in a telly ad when it was still cobbled (Guiness or Hovis or something).I am probably wrong again but Idon`t care.

Memo to the driving instructor- Sadist!!

PS Winnats Pass or whatever don`t count, not in Sheffield.

I would say Lickszz is correct with Hagg Hill, it may be just in the green belt but it is one hell of a Hill going up or Down.

 

Also Hollins Lane at Stannington is another close contender.
