Molotov Posted May 5 Share Posted May 5 Usual nimbys….. Local residents have expressed fears over the possibility of increased traffic to an already busy area. Wendy Nutbrown, who lives opposite the site, told the BBC that the new proposals “put the fear of God into me". "Crossing Meadowhead, even in a car, is like taking your life into your hands. The volume of traffic is at a tipping point. Any more will be absolutely horrendous,” she said. Meanwhile, Jillian Wallace, co-owner of Meadowhead Meats, near Meadowhead roundabout, said she was also worried about an increase in traffic the new stadium could bring. "It’s madness with the roundabout and St James' Retail Park, it’s a nightmare," she said. "There's loads of accidents already. Lots of customers around here don’t want it. They think house prices are going to go down." Another local resident, Andrew Throssell, said while he had fond memories of the Transport ground as a child, the new proposals would deprive people of some important green space. “Sheffield has a reputation, rightly, for being a beautiful green city," he said. "Now, the first thing you're going to see coming in off the A61 is a dirty great big stadium in a residential space." 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Molotov Posted May 5 Share Posted May 5 A woman's face was left covered in bright red blotches after opening an air freshener which splashed on her lip. Josie Aldridge, 60, bought the flower-scented perfume to make her car smell nice. The animal charity worker removed the “stopper” with her teeth but got some of the liquid on her lip. The next morning she woke up with five bright, red blots on her face and realised that the air freshener liquid had damaged her skin. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Removed with teeth" Then you've caused this yourself then, by opening the air freshener in an unsafe way, no further questions Your Honour. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boghead ranter Posted May 6 Share Posted May 6 10 hours ago, Empty It said: It'll be MOT exempt due to the age. Fecking mental that you have to, by law, get your vehicle proven to be roadworthy once a year, unless it's eons old (thus vastly increasing the chances of it being unroadworthy/unsafe). Then you can just clatter about the road network in it as much as you fancy. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
