Sheffield City Hall Ballroom Re-opens October 2005

From The Sheffield Weekly Gazette dated Thursday 20th October 2005 

Sadly neither myself or my wife were invited to the "Barkers Ball" but from the report is looks as though the "glamorous guests" had quite "a bit of a do."

Still the re-opening of the City Hall Ballroom brought back thoughts of an event that was pivotal in my life.

Thursday 9th November 1950 at a dance in the City Hall Ballroom is where my dad met my mother for the first time. Where's mi DeLorean!! 

For a History of Sheffield City Hall read Neil Anderson's excellent book
