Betty1 Posted February 7, 2007 Share Posted February 7, 2007 I lived in this building in the late 1970's and early 1980's and wondered if anyone else had memories of this place ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

twinbush Posted May 21, 2007 Share Posted May 21, 2007 I was a Sheffield Cabbie in the early to mid seventies, I remember very well taking nightclubbing nurses back to Northern General nurses home. A couple of times I got lucky. Happy Days Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave59 Posted June 15, 2007 Share Posted June 15, 2007 Hi Betty My wife and I trained at the NGH starting in 1980. We met in the home, whilst visiting friends and eventually married. We kept up those friendships with the home residents for many years; they are still a good source of happy memories! I would be happy to chat if you would like.

Dave59 Posted June 15, 2007 Share Posted June 15, 2007 Hi Betty No chuck, I dont work there any more. I stayed at the NGH from 1980 -88 then moved to the RHH site where I stayed until 2002. I now work in Rotherham. Do you work there or have you ever worked there? Do any of these names mean anything to you Mick Fines, Pip Cummings, Joyce Baynes, Marion Millwaters? Love to chat more chuck. DD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave59 Posted June 15, 2007 Share Posted June 15, 2007 Betty and Jan Thanks very much for your info, it was good to hear from you. I did an agency shift at the NGH about a year ago and the day I worked there was the day of Pips retirement do. She still looked the same as she ever did. Joyce retired in the early 90's and did a few shifts in out patients, she could be really keen but we eventually got on really well. I havent seen Mick Fines for almost 18 years, the same with Sister Millwaters. Nursing just doesn't seem to be as much fun now, I dont know if you hold the same opinion. I have enjoyed our few brief exchanges and will keep watching this topic if you would like to chat further. With my warmest regards DD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With my warmest regards Hi Dave I agree with you nursing wasn't fun anymore when I left, it really had changed from the early days, I was a nursing auxilliary working on nights, it was really hard work in the old days. did you ever come to the auxilliary 11-30 pm break, it was light relief for the work ahead for the rest of the night, I really enjoyed those early years, but really had had enough when I retired. cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
