Bugger off are they! look what happened to sheffield last year!

That's becuase you go anywhere in Sheffield, you go up a hill. You come back and go up another hill.

I miss Sheffield.

Got to love a north - south divide debate (argument), my mates from Nottingham and say "op" instead of up and "bos" instead of bus... so to me, he is northern!
another lad from Southport (Liverpool) says "pants" instead of trousers. Crazy, crazy people..

As for the snow, they can't predict whats going to happen next week, let alone a month or two away, weather is ridiculously unpredictable and weather forecasts beyond like 2 days are just pure guess work!

I'm from Durham but been living in Sheffield for nearly 3 years.. I class this as southern!

The hills are mental here too. I live up in a place called Crookes, riiiight at the top of the hill. I think it's one of the highest points in Sheffield.

Aww my mate bought a Suzuki Vitara to have some Winter fun round Sheffield.. Gearbox has just packed in so he's now with a mk5 golf :(

The worst hill on Conduit Road is always a laugh. Saw a BMW actually speed up going down that hill, nearly smashed into some kids on the road and went straight over at the X junction! Very lucky not to have caused an accident..

I'm out  Worrall/ Loxley way. Not sure what to expect for snow though as it's going to be first winter in Sheffield.
