What Defines Sheffield?


Recommended Posts

Walking on a sunny day through Norfolk Park ,Seeing a pal who you have not met for twenty years and saying where's tha been purrin thi sen, Standing on the Manor Top and seeing trams go past [again after 50 years], Sitting in Fitzallan Square and getting ****ed on by a pigeon related to the last pigeon who did the same thing in 1966 [may].

 

Standing on Lady's Bridge looking at the river Don and remembering the smell from the brewery ,the bang,bang, bang of the steam hammers, and the changing colours of the water and sky as the great Steel Works and factories turned out the wealth and fame that made this City.

But last of all but not least listining to proper Sheffielder's talking in proper Sheffield lingo as they moan about every thing that can be moaned about while at the same time knowing that deep down they cud'nt care less.

Magic our Maurice.

 

Nearly forgot eating mussels, whelks and cockles and then having a cuppa at Sharrons in't Castle Market.

Now then Sheffield residents or admirers from far and wide

 

Precisely, what would you say defines the city of Sheffield ???

 

Definitions are manmade. You think about something and start philosophising and take these thoughts and further analyse and think about the definitions.

Only something real has value. All these definitions are only energy products of thought processes that you are chewing on and swallowing and then chewing again just like a cow.

When you look awake, with consciousness then you see what is there and there is no need to package that truth in limiting brained definitions.

Always looking backwards, poor spelling and punctuation. That's Sheffield.

Mine would be lack of efficiency or council inefficiency

 

Unfinished projects, pipe dreams and wasted resources

 

Then hills upon hills upon hills upon hills upon hills upon hills

 

The only football team in the world that has a day named after it

 

Then there is fish cakes, bread cakes, baps and Henderson's Relish

 

Then there is Don Valley Stadium, an ill effect of the World Student Games

 

Then there is the Hillsborough disaster, which has scarred the city for decades

 

There was industry now no industry, markets now no markets and lots of chuggers :hihi:
