Chesterfield Discussion / Nesting Peregrine Falcons

Do we have any in Ches? I often look at the ones in Sheffield, there is a webcam...and they have laid at least one egg so far this year...

Rants / Don't wee in a layby!
« on: December 07, 2023, 12:45:59 PM »
Blimey, what are you meant to do when you are on a long journey? I thought that was why laybys were out of town with grass verges, hedges and trees...

Chesterfield Discussion / Parking charges increasing...

A pity for the town centre...as more folks will shop out of town....maybe they could try free parking, that would help the town centre shops?

Chesterfield Discussion / J E James roundabout
« on: July 26, 2023, 04:42:57 PM »
Navigated it today...i think the lane markings were designed by an imbecile, on leaving the roundabout to go down WhitMoor, I was side by side with another car heading for the single exit off the roundabout, then the same, when I was leaving the roundabout to head up to Old Whittington. It is an accident waiting to happen...

Rants / Oh no, Only Connect 4 is back!
« on: August 30, 2022, 09:40:05 AM »
I think I might like the programme if only that awful gobby presenter wasn't doing it! Does she think she is clever and funny? I certainly don't think so. Trouble is, SatNag likes to watch it...and with the sound on!!!

General Discussion / where is everyone?
« on: August 19, 2022, 05:09:12 PM »
I love this forum....such good chat and discussions...but SO quiet...
So, when I click on here, and see no new posts, I click on to the Sheffield form....which is busy, BUT full of boring tedious posts about silly boring things....so I soon click out and revert to Face ache....

Just saying like....and it's Friday afternoon when we should be in the pub (to help start the weekend....)

Sport / Crown Green Bowling
« on: January 28, 2022, 03:20:25 PM »
Just wondered if anyone else on here plays this superb game? There are quite a few clubs and greens around this area....I play in Sheffield....and also play the occasional game of flat green bowls....

General Discussion / evicted dormice
« on: January 24, 2022, 01:03:24 PM »
I feel so guilty! Thought the time was right to clean out the birds nest boxes....and the first one, behind a bush, and on the garage wall just below the gutters.... inside were two sweet little dormice! The jumped out and scurried away. Hope they come back....

Chesterfield Discussion / Do our banks like customers?
« on: August 17, 2021, 09:21:00 AM »
I think they don't give a hoot....yesterday, I called in to HSBC in the Market Square, to find only 1 cashier  window open....and after 27th August, there will be NO customer service desks....banking will be all by machine.....
Some of us still need cashiers. Fair enough, there are those staff milling around helping you press the machine buttons, but it just ain't the same....

« on: January 18, 2019, 10:27:51 AM »
