The wonderful glasshouse in Weston Park, commemerating the Festival of Britain but allowed to fall down thanks to the neglect of our wonderful City Council I think the Eucolyptus tree that grew through the roof was the main culprit but they should have saved it. On the subject of Weston Park, I miss the bees in the museum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's the same everywhere there's diving boards now for safety reasons. I loved it in the old days whe you could dive to you hearts content regardless of anyone that may be swimming below you.

nick2 Posted February 2, 2005 Share Posted February 2, 2005 The diving boards at Shef Valley were realy scarey though, the pool looked the same size as a paddling pool from the top one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not like the Giant Beanstalk growing 100 foot overnight and catching the dopey bu**ers by surprise! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

owdlad Posted February 2, 2005 Share Posted February 2, 2005 Originally posted by Tim42 All those wonderfull buildings that was demolished in the name of ''progress''. So, so many. WHY! Just because they were old? NO! They just looked so beautiful. By the way! Ikea are bringing out flat pack houses, no kidding. No doubt this council will be a major customer. They should have allowed Ikea to have set up in sheffield. They could have saved a fortune of councils, oh! sorry! our money in transportation fees from there warehouse The council bought plat pack houses years ago, and had them erected by Vic Hallam & Co. and they're still in use.
