RE: https://mastodon.social/@devolute/116240677422104893 Never forgot what #SYPN took away from us. They were this close to implementing iconic branding but decided to drop the ball by resorting to huge - barely readable - letters. Bit of a mess. I wonder which sadist pushed for the change? #Sheffield
Quoting

Digging the look of the new buses for / - yes “People’s Network” is a bit 'Continuity Corbyn' & yes it's 🇳🇱 Dutch AF (we've done this before, *cough* Tramlines branding) - nothing wrong with that.
Who knows, it might hint at better cyclist vibes? 🚌

@fesshole@mastodon.social I used to know a guy called ACAB, his real name was Gary Lawson, but he had ACAB tattooed on his forehead and that is what I and everyone else called him. https://burngreavemessenger.org.uk.archived.website/archives/june-2016-issue-120/acab-legend-in-his-own-lifetime/ #sheffield #acab

Anyone in #rotherham #sheffield #doncaster or nearby with an interest in #DIYscience or #experimental #filmmaking should check out my microscope, which I'm selling to pay for a mobility aid. It comes with a bespoke smartphone holder, so you can easily record and even livestream the teeny tiny wildlife you find in your local environment. It also comes with a guide on how to find microscopic critters and how to treat them well while they are under your attentive care! Local pick-up will save you a bunch of money and save me a lot of hassle - I really don't want this thing to get damaged in transit. This is a #mutualaid request: I need the money to pay for a mobility scooter, as I've become almost housebound due to MS and Long COVID. Boosts greatly appreciated. https://ebay.io/m/GDPpgA #microscopy #film #video

📌George Barnsley & Sons' Cornish Works, Sheffiled. This abandoned toolmakers' factory made tools for shoemakers and the leather industry. Cheaper imports and mass production forced its closure in 2003. Upper floors feature wooden storage racks that still display original chalk markings and stock notes. https://www.obsidianurbexphotography.com/industrial/george-barnsley-sons-cornish-works-sheffield-england/ #Sheffield #Industrial #Abandoned #Heritage #History #Victorian

Common sandpiper at Rivelin Dams, and another look at the A57 closure. Some progress since Wednesday evening. #Sheffield #Birds

I've been to look at the road works on the A57 Manchester Road just west of Sheffield. There is a trench in the road and lots of fencing, but the route is open for pedestrians and cyclists. #Sheffield #Cycling #BikeTooter

The sun is shining, the children have gone back to school, the term time queue has formed, and there is a bus parked in the bike lane. (The bus part can be blamed on Sheffield City Council highways department for provisioning a coach waiting space in a cycle lane without offering an alternative to cyclists other than squeezing past cars.) #Sheffield #Cycling #BikeTooter

Roasting House Coffee @roastinghouse@mastodonapp.uk · Mar 27, 2026
I miss this #bike. It got recalled with the frame issues from babboe which Raleigh rebadged. It was an absolute tank and turned heads. Once or twice we had it full of #coffee for delivery if you include the run to the post office. This is in #Nottingham in front of the Robin Hood statute and we took it to #Sheffield when we moved. The recall was in place by then though but took them over a year to collect it.
