crookedspire Posted March 19, 2016 Share Posted March 19, 2016 Sheffield has a place in family . I was not born at Sheffield myself but others were Stannington village especially holds a special place. My family in the past was quite large and were publicans they ran the old Hare and Hounds and the Blue Boer pubs in the 19th century . Moving forwards in time some of my family lived at Norfolk Park and worked at Firth Browns steel works ( Atlas Works ) as well as been in the Army. I lived at Sheffield for a brief time IV seem to have a soft spot for the steel city. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nagel Posted March 20, 2016 Share Posted March 20, 2016 Why is it interesting whether someone who lives here was born here? There will be a lot who have moved here from elsewhere, but probably less than more cosmopolitan cities. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GLASGOWOODS Posted March 20, 2016 Share Posted March 20, 2016 Born at home Lowedges and stayed in Sheff for 35 years.Moved to Ireland (County Mayo), then Glenavey, (near Belfast). Back to Sheff for a while, then Ayr/Glasgow for 8 years. Still got itchy feet, and would only move back to Sheff if Alcoblog lets me live in area 51 and a half, (request in). However, Alcoblog is trying to convince me (via glossy brochure/s) that Parsonia is the 'up and coming' place to be. Wouldn't mind one of these places to finally settle down though: York Harrogate Edinburgh Bath Lincolnshire Norfolk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have no problems with migrants from foreign borders. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have no problems with migrants from foreign borders. Are the fluffless waspie things still in residence too or have they been evicted? You seem to get through quite a lot of tenants up there in S51 and a half Alcoblog. ---------- Post added 20-03-2016 at 18:20 ---------- Born at home Lowedges and stayed in Sheff for 35 years.Moved to Ireland (County Mayo), then Glenavey, (near Belfast).

Alcoblog Posted March 20, 2016 Share Posted March 20, 2016 (edited) Are the fluffless waspie things still in residence too or have they been evicted? You seem to get through quite a lot of tenants up there in S51 and a half Alcoblog. Not at all, I haven't had one tenant leave whatsoever (not from the premises as such, anyway). Well, I suppose you could count 'One Tooth', the sedentary octogenarian domestic, who's demise came about by natural uranium 235 poisoning (possibly accounting for her one wobbly tooth in the first place). Having no stable isotopes relatives, she's now half-decaying in the chemical garden, under something that resembles a turnip/monkfish. Only ever had the one wasp at Area 51 and a Half™, and that wasn't a particularly good example, what with only half a wing and damaged shin.
