Expats - What do you miss about Sheffield?


Recommended Posts

I miss the hills and views around the city, The dee dah dialect,

 

the Sheffield Star ( better than any New Zealand national or local

 

paper (nicknamed here-The Two Minutes Silence), definitely the

 

beer and the local radio.

Spot on. Well at least with relish and a proper fishcake. For me, a pie wasn't complete without a generous splash of Hendersons. I also miss my favourite supper, a fish 'n' a cake. What about the mushy peas? The chip shops where I now live don't sell 'em. The tinned stuff is not quite the same. But most of all, I miss a decent pint.

Fishcakes, friendly people (took me years and almost turning into an alky to get to know people down here) and football. Hopping onto a bus, knowing if you miss one there'll be another one fairly soon (hopefully anyway). Opening the pub door and pushing everyone back in as they fall out, before squeezing into a gap yourself
