So last Monday I went off to the Showroom in Sheffield (an lovely independent cinema (well worth a visit)) to see the film Sirat. Well what can I say, it was an award winning film. It’s sounded okay from the write up, but it’s another film that’s left me feeling traumatised, I think it should come with a free counselling session.

If you are a techno fan then maybe this is one for you?

Maybe I’m not like other cinema goes all I want is a good story and a happy ending!

Do you know the term ‘Croydonisation’? It’s in the Oxford Dictionary, defined as ‘the architectural ruin of a town centre’.
Which appears to be what’s going on in Sheffield!
Look at this picture taken while I was waiting for the train back to Kiveton. The universities appear to be taking over the City Centre. I visited the lovely art deco showroom cinema. Opposite the Sheffield Hallam University has built another awful concrete and glass box.
What on earth are the Council planners thinking of?

Went to the Showroom Cinema, yesterday it’s a great art deco building which was originally Kennings. I love to be able to support this independent cinema.

The film was called The Shepherd and the Bear, and was a French language film with English subtitles. Quite a thought provoking film. #sheffield

Had A great morning at the Telford Hamfest. If you missed it this year, put it on your calendar for next year. Not sure why it doesn’t get more coverage in RadCom’s? #hamr #hamradio #amateurradio

Had a great Morning on Wednesday, got a chance to fit a #POTA Activation in, at Sandhill Lakes in Worksop. Like most things, it did not go to plan. #hamr #hamradio #amateurradio last minute picture, it's much better than it looks. Also great to meet up with a couple of friends
