Two young men opposite me on the tram recently were having a conversation. “If tha wants to tell 'er, thee tell ,er, but doant get me involved”. “Doant thee werry, ah've plenty to say to 'er bi missen, ah doant need thee”. This is perfect Sheffield, grammatically correct and still following the speech patterns dating back many years. These men did not expect to be laughed at or mocked, they were in serious conversation. Many books have been written as sources of amusement and claiming to plot the Sheffield dialect. I hope that by referring to this book the reader will learn to appreciate and enjoy the richness of a fading heritage.

The Latest addition to our Then and Now collection. The book covers all areas of S8 and we anticipate it to be popular as there are not many books on the area. apart from a few on Norton. We have been asked for this on numerous occasions. so hopefully we are filling in a few blanks here.

by Dave Akehurst

In stark contrast to many of our historical local books, David Akehurst’s book is right up to date with paintings of his Sheffield done over the last few years.

His style is refreshingly modern and contrasts nicely with Terry Gorman’s Then & Now that we also publish.

This title is very much a work in progress as David paints further pictures.

A future collector’s item!
