That makes 2 de-da's on UU then ;)

Nope,
With me it's 3 from Sheffield!
Hasn't the council sold those off to be turned into luxury flats?

I was Norfolk Park, up the hill, but they seem to have been demolished now!

I once lived on the street running along the back of Hyde Park flats. A friend of mine had a flat in the refurbished Norfolk Park flats, after the world student games had finished with them. The only thing I miss about those days is The Wapentake I think.
 
Wapentake.
Wasn't that behind Debenhams on the Moor?
Used to go there on a Saturday lunchtime for a pint and Ploughmans when I had a Saturday job at Debenhams.
About 16 at the time!

It was in the basement to the Grosvenor hotel. Rock pub. I used to go in there every night from about 1980 - 1990. I even DJ'd down there.
 
Yes that's the place. (Wapentake)
Following on from my post yesterday, having left Sheffield 40 years ago, everything seems to have gone, my junior school is still there and the house I lived in at the time, everything else has gone! (Do you think they may be trying to eradicate every trace of me?)
Anyway, I ended up on a forum spending hours reading about my old school, Central Technical School, the teachers, the jolly japes and the thrashings!
Happy days!

Just seen the earlier post re Sheffield forum, yes that's where last night went!
