  1. Can’t say I believe in God, but I do find the that gigantic sculpture of The Angel of the North in Gateshead feels almost spiritual when driving past it or if I’m sat on the bus going past it.. This photo might just bring a peaceful presence on the Sheffield Forum for a few minutes.
  2. Enjoyed reading your story Anna. Sharing your grief and how you coped with it and other posters on here who have gone through a similar experience and told their story, I’m sure it can help others who have recently lost a love one.
  3. Hopefully SheffieldForum will organise a social night in the future for those who live in Sheffield and surrounding area to meet up and new friendships are made. I’m sure Padders will have a room in his bar that can be hired out for such an event, at a discount price of course.
  4. I’m not sure how accurate the prediction polls are but they are saying that Labour could wipe out nearly all the political parties, winning the largest majority since the Second World War. It’s a lot of power for any political party and if that’s the case it seems to me they can do what they like once they become the government, unless their backbenchers decide not to vote for some of there policies and start to rebel against the Prime Minister. It’s going to be an interesting time in politics in the future.
  5. I’m sure alcohol can make some people become angry and looking to start an argument. I had a neighbour who was Jekyll and Hyde, a lovely person when he hadn’t been drinking, after he had a drink you had to be careful what you said to him.
  6. Trooping the Colour - I recorded this spectacular pageantry and watched it last night. What a shame about the rain, however it did stop for the fly past over Buckingham Palace.
  7. The Fall Guy I got a bit bored with this film and I think I only stuck with it because Ryan Gosling was in it. 6/10

  9. Definitely not about cricket. Google the title of the film. Olivia Colman is in it . She sends anonymous letters to people in the village.
  10. Wicket Little Letters I didn't think I was going to enjoy this film but I did. It is based on a true story. 7/10
  11. Can't say I have watched this man on TV but the name sounds familiar. If he was walking in a heatwave it could have caused a heart attack. Just have to wait until there has been a post mortem.
  12. I agree, I expected her to make a feeble excuse for Sunak but she didn’t.
  13. Before the lockdown and the constant increases in food I was going into a large Asda supermarket. A lady was in the car park pushing a trolly that appeared to be full of children’s clothes inside it. A security lady stopped her and took the trolly off her then asked her to come back into the store, she refused and said I don’t think so, slowly she walked away from security minus the trolly. The security lady said we are not allowed to force anyone back into the store and the police won’t come out if we phone them. Having said that the police do come out if known syndicate’s of thieves are operating in the store. Since then Asda has improved its security by adding more barriers. I agree the police don’t have the resources for shop lifting and I would prefer them to spend what resources they have on violent crime. It is up to the supermarkets to do more to try and prevent shoplifting.
  14. I’m off to do a free shop at Asda today. Mr Farage said you can’t get prosecuted for nicking less than £200 worth of goods. Is this a joke? No wonder food prices are going up. This is what he said last night on the BBC You can go out and nick up to 200 quid’s worth without being prosecuted,” he said. “We are seeing a decline, a societal decline of law and order in this country and, frankly, government and the police forces are being too scared of what needs to be done.”
  15. I watched the seven party political debate last night on BBC for me I thought Farage had the upper hand. I still have no idea who I am going to vote for tho. Possibly the Eeny Meeny Miney Moe party.
  16. We have got a thread in the History section, D Day 80th Anniversary I think SheffieldForum should movie it to the General Section or vice versa and combine it as one.
  17. Lesley Pearse, The Woman In The Wood. In this fiction story we have 13 year old twins, a boy and girl, there mother is taken to an asylum. A cold hearted grandmother, a lady who is a recluse who lives in a cabin in the woods and a serial killer. Not bad but the story is predictable.
  18. I use to find it strange that they do a pop up seaside on Newcastle Quayside when the coast is only about 9 miles from the quayside and well serviced by the metro and buses which takes just over 20 minutes by metro train to the coast. But it seems to be popular with families.
  19. When You Go Home, Tell Them Of Us And Say, For Their Tomorrow, We Gave Our Today” John Maxwell Edmonds (1875 -1958)
  20. I agree with Al she is after publicity. I’m pleased she had been charged, all politicians should be able to walk the streets without being subjected to having things thrown at them.
  21. There’s Only One Rob Burrow I found this documentary heartbreaking to watch, what a brave man he was.
  22. The person who threw the milkshake over Nigel Farage should be prosecuted and that goes for all politicians who are out on the campaign trail, which ever party they are from. For a few seconds they have no idea what has been thrown at them, it could be a harmful substance. If I was a politician campaigning in the streets I’d be very nervous.
  23. Yes I agree with you on that one.
  24. Thank heavens a magician or comedian didn’t win Britain’s got talent this year, I’m pleased Sydnie Christmas, or what ever her name is, won the competition, she has a lovely voice.
