A very different page, with many images:
Sheffield Dales. Sheffield as a very good place to live, and 'a remarkable area ... well worth visiting.' For a long time, the page included this:
'If I hadn't been born in Sheffield, I would have wanted to move to Sheffield.'
My view now is generally a disillusioned one, but still with recognition of very important, wide-ranging Sheffield strengths. From the Home Page:
This page, which will convey my reasons for disillusionment, is in preparation, at a very early stage. There are already links to this page from the Home Page of the Site but there will be a delay in providing much in the way of content. The focus of attention is on very specific issues and a very limited number of people, but the weaknesses, the issues raised, are broad rather than narrow.
Chief Inspector Jane Bullimore of Sheffield Allotment Office and Agent Rowan Longhurst
South Yorkshire Police Unprofessional Standards Department: 'Lauren'
Tapton School, Sheffield: David Bowes, 'Reservoir of Hope?' Nope
Sheffield University: Koen Lamberts, President, Vice-Chancellor and Part-Time Campsite Manager
Oliver Coppard, South Yorkshire Mayor: Far From Feebly-Functioning Figurehead? Unfortunately, no.
The inspection carried out by 'Chief Inspector Jane Bullimore' is inspection of allotments, of course, with no resemblance to the work of Inspector Nik Dodsworth of South Yorkshire Police. From the Home Page of the site:
I can easily show that Jane Bullimore's decisions (in 2024) were based on multiple errors, some of them serious ones. I'll be presenting the evidence here. The decisions were eventually reversed, but the events form part of a wider pattern, taking up a great deal of my time, requiring a great deal of work which has taken me away from other work. The apparent simplicity of the situation - allegedly overgrown and uncultivated land, the enforcement of reasonable sanctions, was nothing of the kind. The background is disturbing and I have the evidence, including a series of emails from me to Jane Bulimore about weed control, allotment law and many other issues. This a clear-cut case of badly mistaken judgment. Rowan Longhurst has recently sent me an email which did nothing to address the issues, deficient in elementary fairness. Again, I'll include the evidence, the email sent to me, my response and more detailed comment.
