arena opens its doors to vaccinations South Yorkshire took a major step on Monday in its efforts to vaccinate the region as the NHS vaccination centre, based at the FlyDSA Arena in Broughton Lane, opened on Monday, January 25. People aged 75 and over within a 45 minute drive of the Arena will receive a letter from the inviting them to book a vaccination, putting the centre in reach of a significant proportion of South Yorkshire’s population. The Arena will be open seven days a week and will be run by Sheffield
Teaching Hospitals on behalf of the NHS national vaccination programme. Speaking on Monday Dr Jennifer Hill, Medical Director (Operations) at Sheffield Teaching Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust said: “GPs, nurses, pharmacists and countless other NHS staff, partners and volunteers are pulling out all the stops to deliver the vaccination programme as quickly as we can across South Yorkshire and Bassetlaw. It is tribute to their hard work that we have already vaccinated thousands
of our most vulnerable residents. The Arena opening today is another step forward in rolling out the vaccination programme and it has been fantastic to see people like Rita and Colin getting their vaccinations and being protected against this awful virus.” Dr Hill added: “We are asking people to help us by not turning up at the Arena unless they have an appointment as we cannot vaccinate people ad hoc. As well as NHS colleagues, I would also like to thank the team at the Arena who have been
simply amazing, firstly by creating a drive-through testing service and have now been instrumental in helping our successful
planning for the huge scale vaccination programme roll out that will go a long way in safeguarding everyone”

leadmill releases 40th album The Leadmill celebrated its fortieth birthday in May of 2020 and to close out a very difficult but still celebratory year for the venue, they will release a very special limited edition compilation record titled ‘Forty’. Local and legendary artist Pete McKee has designed the cover art for the record, featuring his take on a typical Leadmill crowd enjoying a live band. “The Leadmill was pivotal to some of my most memorable nights out, looking at the small flyer

with the upcoming bands and cherry picking potential history making gigs. Every city needs a Leadmill.” said Pete, speaking of the importance of venues like The Leadmill. The track listing derives from artists who have created relationships with the venue over the years, including Enter Shikari, Patawawa, Joe Carnall Jnr’s latest project Good Cop Bad Cop and October Drift. The record also features an insert with a foreword written by Richard Hawley, talking about his experience of The Leadmill. The vinyl itself will be a bright red colour, to match the venue’s iconic neon sign. “We’ve really tried to bring together a bunch of faces from across the venues history, while incorporating all different genres, to achieve a true representation of what The Leadmill is about’ said Sam Feeley, live promoter at the venue, Shipping in early May, the record is available for preorder via The Leadmill’s online store. Established in 1980, The Leadmill has been a creative hub in Sheffield for 40 years. A home from home to gig goers and clubbers a-like, the venue is
renowned for promoting the best new and emerging acts. Once recounted by Franz Ferdinand to Arcade Fire, ‘playing The Leadmill is a rite of passage for any band worth their salt’ The venue has stayed independent throughout it’s 40 year run in Sheffield and has become a cultural cornerstone of the city. Over the years the likes of Pulp, Annie Mac, Culture Club, Jorja Smith, The Housemartins, Suede, Manic Street Preachers, George Ezra and Richard Hawley are just a few of the acts to have graced the Leadmill stage!

27th January - 2nd February
I was at a cash machine when an old lady came up to me and asked to check her balance. So I pushed her over. A 75-year old man went to his doctor’s office to get a sperm count. The doctor gave the man a jar and said, “Take this jar home and bring me back a sample tomorrow.” The next day, the 75-year old man reappears at the doctor’s office and gives him the jar, which is as clean and empty as on the previous day. The doctor asks what happened, and the man explains, “Well, first I tried with my right hand, but nothing happened. Then I tried with my left hand, but still nothing. Then I asked my wife for help. She tried with her right hand - nothing. Then with her left, still nothing. She even tried with her mouth, first with the teeth in, then with the teeth out, and still nothing. We even called up the lady next door, and she tried with both hands and her mouth too, but nothing.” The doctor was shocked. “You asked your NEIGHBOUR?” The old man replied, “Yep, but no matter what we tried, we couldn’t get the damned jar open!” As an elderly lady sat on her front porch reflecting on her long life, a Fairy Godmother suddenly appeared and offered to fulfill three wishes for her. “Well,” said the woman, “I guess I’d like to be rich.” POOF: The Fairy Godmother turned her rocking chair into solid gold. “And I wouldn’t mind being a young and beautiful princess.” POOF: The Fairy Godmother turned the old woman into an exquisite young princess, with a priceless crown of jewels. “your third wish?” asked the Fairy Godmother. “Could you possibly turn my wonderful cat into a handsome prince?” POOF: There, in front stood the most handsome young man anyone had ever seen. She stared at him in awe, completely smitten. As he came toward her, her knees weakened. He bent down, brushing his lips across her ear as he whispered, “I bet you’re sorry you had me neutered now.” I was saying to a stranger in the pub last night, “My granddad is 104 tomorrow.” “That’s amazing! What’s his secret?” “He was born a long time ago.”

Soapwatch Coronation Street: As the dust settles, and the development is cancelled, Debbie finds herself under police investigation. The residents find themselves in an unexpected position. The Barlows rally to save Peter from himself. Ken makes a breakthrough. Peter begs Carla for another chance. Todd continues his scheming to undermine Paul. Gail has traced the photo as her great great grandmother, and arranges to meet a mystery relative, who turns out to be George, but Eileen & Mary misunderstand the situation. Grace moves into Number 3. Nina offers to help Asha catch up on her work. Emmerdale: Charles tries to dissuade Harriet from resigning from the Church, but Moira intervenes to help her friend. Things go from bad to worse for Al as Debbie exacts her revenge. Meanwhile Manpreet has a secret - why does Charles think she has a different name? Debbie is worried that Sarah may be involved in drugs again. Jimmy is shocked by a surprise visit from Carl’s biological mother. Eastenders: Despite having huge reservations, Denise Fox is persuaded to meet with her killer ex, Lucas Johnson. Is he a changed man? Gary surprises Whitney with a shock suggestion. Lucas is offered a home but wonders what is bothering Chelsea.
