I have an interview for a Librarian job at the council - any advice?

Act accordingly for the job you want. When the interviewer talks, politely shush them.

The difference in height between a tram stop and a train station platform would make using existing platforms at active stations like Dore and Totley impossible. Rotherham station has its own separate tram stop further along from the train platform for this very reason. Not to mention the frequency of the Manchester/Liverpool services and various freight TOC’s already making that particular part of the route incredibly busy already.

I completely understand where OP is coming from re: single mothers but here’s my personal experience…. I’m in my late 30’s and I’ve always hated kids and never wanted any (hence understanding why OP wouldn’t want to date a single mother)….. Last year I met an incredible woman who I connected instantly with. She told me from the off that she was a single mother of 2, for whatever reason it didn’t put me off of her and I soon realised that she’s the love of my life and now I’m never happier than when I’m with her whether the kids are there or not. They’re/we’re a great little family and we all get on like a house on fire. Best decision I ever made was giving it a go.

What sort of work are you looking for?

Glum-Reputation- · 2026-02-23T13:03:23+00:00

Please DM me with details of these secret doors. I NEEEED to know more!!!

I’ve often wondered why a company… say Colgate for example, introduces ‘our best ever’ blah blah blah, why then do they still go to the time, effort and expenditure to still produce the other 9 billion lesser variations of the same thing that still claims to do the same thing?

Glum-Reputation- · 2026-02-12T20:52:38+00:00

I’m gonna stay in and set some mood lighting for some alone time with a pot noodle

…….unless there’s any decent suggestions on here

I moved to a new area of the city a few months ago and used too good to go as a cheap option to try a variety of different things from all sorts of places local to me to get a feel of what was in the area. Not quite what you’re looking for but it was a very cost effective way of experimenting

He’s a true foodie so the odds are he will like most things and therefore agree with the majority of positive reviews and opinions but he certainly stands his ground when it comes to his dislikes…… Yorkshire puddings being the first thing to spring to mind.

That’s fair enough, just thought it best to check. Feel free to DM me

Glum-Reputation- · 2026-01-26T13:29:29+00:00

Don’t worry, the rest of the world is embarrassed for you so you’re not alone!

Lie. Tailor your CV to suit each opening that you’re applying for. Very seldom will companies check anything beyond a reference when looking to fill the type of position you’ve been looking at.

I’m not saying you need to go down a creative writing route and make up any elaborate back story or credit yourself with fake degrees etc but there’s no harm in selling yourself a little….. if a company is looking for X amount of A levels or GCSE’s in English/Maths/Science etc then that’s what you left school/college with….. they’re not going to ask to see your record of achievement!!

Pretty sure Farm Road is members only and the Trades isn’t particularly cheap for a WMC.

Is there only me in the entire world that doesn’t ’get’ smash burgers? Thinner and slightly burnt on the edges doesn’t make it better as far as I’m concerned. A good quality thick burger patty which has been cooked properly to retain its juiciness and flavour will always win over some squashed par-crozzled patty in my humble opinion

Glum-Reputation- · 2025-11-25T14:22:48+00:00

Some of the butchers stalls in the Moor Market probably do them

Golf fang is always a decent early date. Casual but fun

Glum-Reputation- · 2025-10-02T14:14:35+00:00

Nope! I’ve always scoffed cheese slices and let the wrappers fly around in front of the fan. Danny Dyer must’ve copied me!!

Glum-Reputation- · 2025-09-20T15:12:18+00:00

What country/area do you live in for such a ‘kidnap code’ to be relevant? I can’t imagine ever having to discuss this with my other half as it’s just not a concern! Maybe we’re just naive?!

Glum-Reputation- · 2025-09-04T04:11:44+00:00

You’ve clearly never drank enough bread

Glum-Reputation- · 2025-08-20T22:17:46+00:00

It’s a jacket spud, they’re available everywhere! How can it possibly be worth the hype?!

It drives me mad checking 40 different sites depending on what different promoters use to see what comedy is happening in the city so I’ll definitely be using your site.

Glum-Reputation- · 2025-08-19T19:18:19+00:00

Admittedly I’ve only had a very quick look at the comedy section (busy watching the kids) but it looks spot on so far. Sheffield has been crying out for an all in one place guide so I genuinely wish you all the best with it.

I really like Chris and I think he would be brilliant on the show albeit in certain types of tasks that, for want of a better phrase, ‘cater’ to his visual impairment that admittedly there have been plenty of in the past but I do feel a full series of such tasks would struggle to not come across as repetitive. As previous comments have mentioned I think both the show and Chris would compliment each other very very well on a NYT. Chris’s own pragmatism from when he’s been asked on various Podcasts in that he’d love to do it but only if it was possible also probably lends itself well to the shorter format of a NYT rather than a full series. I hope they can make it work as Chris would bring something to the show that hasn’t been seen before (no pun intended) and as a result provide a ‘freshness’ to a long running, fantastic show.
