  • razzmatazz on St Johns Green gr8 for cards an allsorts of things the scots woman who runs it is mad but ok.
  • A lot of the people in Maltby at least seem to think that the rest of the world is exactly like Maltby and think you're weird if you dont want to live there forever or if you try to do anything other than what is expected, however, places like these have a worse reputation than they deserve because most of the people are nice but nobody ever hears about this silent majority because they are so silent and dont intrude on the lives of others.
  • rotherham is the home of the heavy metal band CARNIVAL OF THIEVES very popular with bikers.(my nephew plays base)
  • I'd like to say that all the people knocking the looks of Rotherham born ladies are clearly blind. There are plenty of wonderful women, with big hearts and even bigger chests. And although there probably isn't a Miss World candidate currently waiting in the wings, that doesn't mean they're all fat, greasy boilers who eat nothing but chips.
  • WE HATE ROTHERHAM BUT THE PEOPLE WILL NOT LET US GO HELLLLPPPPPPPP!! Rotherham is a secret base for all the freaks that do not belong and keep us normal people to make it look like its normal i am planning a break out anyone with me? I cannot tell nowadays who is crazy in rotherham because they all talk to themselves with them new hands free kits out!!
  • Don't ever come to Rotherham, go to Sheffield instaed, or somewhere else entirely! Nah, but tis cool sometimes, we have a laugh!
  • rotherham and sheffield may be neighbours but we are a totally seperate places!!!
  • Don't diss Rotherham if you're not from there yourself. If you are, feel free.
  • Rotherham's equivalent in Germany seems to be the following City: Its name is Gelsenkirchen, the biggest German City that does not have a university. It is also in several other lists the greatest city that does not appear It has more Turkish inhabitants than New York, London or Tunesia do. It has the following in common with Rotherham: For several elections in a row almost every electoral ward had a Labour councillor. There also is a mining tradition and a problem with rubbish.
  • Rotherham is a shit hole and i can`t wait toget back Newark is full of wankers.
  • There are the fattist pigions in the world in the town center
  • The town center is always being improved and the population of Rotherham is over 250,000 so it should really be a city soon.
  • Rotherham is probably the best little town in the world
  • Now Has CCTV. Dalton is no more.
  • the people of south yorkshire are really very friendly and forthright, usually willing to talk to strangers and have a good laugh. i love the yorkshirese dialect and have enjoyed many hours just listening. the best travel agent in town by far is john coldwell, a real expert. he can get you the best fares anywhere. 01709-830911 or CTAS@msn.com
  • There's a cathedral like church in the town centre which is well worth a visit. The civil and business brass have an interesting relationship with Sheffield. It has thriving Junior Chamber of Commerce! 'Ought as folk. (Tha riyte?)
  • Rotherham is just a place where lots of dual carriageways converge. There is nothing else there. Well, there is the Zone of course but the music is utter crap. It's okay for pulling though (so I've been told!).
  • Rotherham also has one of the few "Chapels on the Bridge" in the whole country. It became a tobacconists for several years, but is now back to being a regular Chapel. On a bridge.
  • in rotherham town center there is absolutely no public toilets because the counsel closed them all down
