We will be leaving for our annual trip to Sheffield very soon. Sheffield has changed so much over the years I don't think I could go and live there now. It's such a shame.

Darn, we'd like to stay connected to Sheffield but no sense intruding where we're not welcome.

Heck No... just dont tell them where you live, I suppose some threads may be worse than others, I took a look but didnt post, it wouldn't bother me anyway, I might agree with some of their observations, it all depends what is being said.

I am not on the Sheffield forum. Please could you post a link?
Hubby grew up in Shiregreen, he says "Firth Park Grammar was a red cap school, she'll know what I mean. I went to Firth Park Comprehensive, the Brushes Building."
