If you were there or know anything about this or the whereabouts of any items please pm me we would like to get the ring back but obviously don’t expect to . I have a picture of the ring and know the size etc and will pass these details on to the police 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

He wasn't Fear mongering. He stated his 'View'...  Totally different.  Personally speaking, i'm not afraid to go there but there is little reason to these days.!  Most of the the pubs have been closed down and the folk that drank in them have long gone too.  It's an okay place to get a kebab or some fried chicken i guess?  Or for the peasant's to pawn their late mothers silver..!!       Edited September 22, 2019 by FinBak 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

To slate an entire area then just say "in my view" does not lessen the potential damage to its reputation. In my Experience London road is not the best of areas in places but to say its a no go area? Well thats just stupid. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

Never Mind an entire area.!  Get over yourself.   He said " London Rd is a no go area in my view. " Seems pretty clear cut to me. Anyway, as luck would have it im heading into Sheffield today so Ill pop down to London road and see if I survive to trip. If I make it out alive Ill post back my results later. If you dont hear from me again then you can take it that Lazarus could be right and it is indeed a no go area. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
