Here is a video I shot on Thursday/Friday night in Sheffield of the 2011 Christmas lights, I have also included
lots of night time footage of the Sheffield Peace Gardens and the Railway Station water feature.
We were in Sheffield to see two 80s bands, Adam Ant on 15th and Go West on the 16th, both at the Sheffield o2 Academy. Both gigs were great.
Here are some videos of the Adam Ant gig in Sheffield on Thursday 15th December 2011:
Ants Invasion.
Stand and Deliver.
Puss 'n Boots.
Kings of the wild frontier.
Vince Taylor.
Ant Music.
Red Scab.
Physical (You're So).
Here are some videos of the Go West gig in Sheffield on Friday 16th December 2011:
The Tracks Of My Tears.
Love the way you lie.
Faithful.
Black and Gold.
Bright lights bigger city (cover).
The cheapest train ticket from Derby to Sheffield is with a Derbyshire Wayfarer, this costs £8.90 and that's unlimited travel on train and bus all day! This ticket can not be put in the barrier machine at Derby so you have to goto the wide barrier entrance to get the guard to let you through, remember to keep the ticket.
Happy Christmas

Restored Andrew Handyside Fountain in Australia. Makes you proud to be from Derby.
You may not know this but Friar gate Bridge was made by the company Andrew Handyside who's iron work during the Victorian era was very much in demand due to its high quality and fine workmanship.
The company produced many ornate fountains around the globe and I would like to tell you about one such fountain that is celebrating its first years anniversary after restoration on 28th May 2011.
The restored fountain is located in the grounds of Prince Alfred College, Adelaide, Australia.
This fountain has a commemorative plaque on the front of it and shows just how proud they are of this fountain that was made in humble old Derby.
Would you like to know more about this?
Have a look at my Andrew Handyside blog about the Prince Alfred College fountain.

If you have never heard of Andrew Handyside then head over to my other blog - Andrew Handyside and Company of Derby and London.
I hope that reading about this fountain has made you feel proud to be from Derby.
Thanks
