  1. Take your wife to Loxley and visit Admiral Rodney pub ideally on a nice sunny day and enjoy the view.
  2. Not a good sign what is Dempsey's like at night ?
  3. Iv been in Dempsey's during the day odd times after meals have fnished it goes quite. I think most pubs both gay or straight don't do that much trade in the day mid week seems to be very quite hence why some don't bother to open in the day only at night.
  4. Thanks for the info Iv been Vegan for about a week and a half feel better like yourself. Was hard to start with but getting their. ---------- Post added 10-05-2016 at 17:02 ---------- Thank you , will attend your event could be very helpful.
  5. No chain pubs I mean a real local boozer ideally with bags of character and local characters to match . The Big Gun , Hen and Chickens perhaps ?
  6. Which bus would you get from the bus station to Catcliffe Retail Park?
  7. Does anywhere in Sheffield sell extra wide formal trousers for men . My problem is I have a large left leg but my right leg is writhed due to a accident I had so my left leg does most of the work hence the problem with getting trousers to go over my leg joggers is the only thing that seems to get round the problem but if I needed to attended a formal event joggers would not be acceptable any ideas?
  8. Been reading a book about Park Hill and Hyde Park doesn't paint either estate as good . But given today's demand for housing they would have gone a long way in finding people homes for all their faults. Though getting used to living with ants and flying rubbish could be a challenge.
  9. Didn't realise that Hyde Park was built on a rubbish dump did this effect the complex in later years ?
  10. Does anyone on here follow a Vegan lifestyle what are the pros and cons of it. Also what do you eat for a breakfast that's long lasting also what about getting Zinc and Iron in your diet?
  11. Very impressive photo so much housing begs the question why did they demolish it ?
  12. IV watched the YouTube film was very enjoyable it was like looking at a lost world we have lost much .
  13. I bet when Hyde Park was lit up at night it was an impressive sight. The sheer scale of the flats is amazing
  14. A few years ago I needed quite a few jobs doing not small ones but things like rewiring and pumbling and so forth. It was a nightmare felt as though I was ringing everyone up in the country and many promises of will come and see and call you back . Got the jobs done in the end never again!
  15. IV seen photos of Hyde Park flats I don't recall them personally as I was very young when they were demolished in the early 1990s . The complex looks massive and must have had great views from the upper levels . Was the flats inside similar to the ones at Park Hill flats and was their bedsits in the complex did the lager flats have three or more bedrooms.The outside looks similar to Park Hill but IV noticed on the very top the design looks different . Was it ture their were design flaws in the complex ?
  16. Been to the Dentist today for the usual dreaded check up. My dentist has said I'm grinding my teeth at night so has decided that I need a night guard on the bottom row of teeth. I'm not jumping for joy with the idea to be honest, who wears one and what are the pros and cons of wearing this night guard?
  17. To Tzijistra, another issue with Turkey has with Cyprus is the ghost town of Varosha that Turkey has illegally occupied since 1974. If Turkey joins the EU theirs going to be conflict as many Greek Cypriots want Varosha back plus the the issue of the self proclaimed Turkish republic in the North of Cyprus .
  18. Not anytime soon for example the former ' Cutlers' pub is now used as a digital art space called ' Dina' they have a lease for roughly two years. The Governor House Hotel has been stripped out to a shell and that has been done . The rest of the buildings are either derelict or on short term leases. Do any of the new plans show what the former Salvation Army Citadel will be used for ?
  19. I never understood the point of Twitter and never been overly keen on Facebook. The thing I like about this forum is the history section which often has been very helpful for hobby.
  20. Are Internet Forums waining as 'Facebook' and other social websites are now more popular . Sheffield Forum seems to be not doing to bad but others like Manchester Forum are very quite and Chesterfield Forum is dead ?
  21. Phase two has been started work already begun on ripping out windows and doors. The Duke Street block has been sold to Art Space work on that going to start in September 2016. Most of phase one flats have been sold .
  22. The 'Mirror ' ran a story about a women who spent £25 a week on food for family. Perhaps possible to do at a food store like Fulton's or Herons or a market . ---------- Post added 19-04-2016 at 19:08 ---------- Very true it's down to prices .
