The City of Sheffield is nestled in the beautiful Peak District, with plenty of opportunity to go for pleasant walks among the reservoirs in the Derwent Valley and visit cosy countryside pubs. However, when it’s raining, things are different. Just what can you do when it’s raining in Sheffield?
1) Get wet.
2) Nap.
3) Wake up your friend who is an F1 (first year) Doctor before she’s about to do a night shift on New Year’s Eve.
4) Get wet while shopping.
5) If you don’t want to get wet while shopping, you can go and have your soul crushed while shopping in the dry at Meadowhall.
6) Take a trip to Eyam, according to the Peak District Online web site. (Plague not included, and I strongly suspect you will still get wet.)
7) Go and eat Bakewell Tart in Bakewell itself. Along with everyone else sheltering from the rain.
Any other suggestions?

Do they not have live cutlery-making demonstrations, like they have live glass-blowing demonstrations in Venice?
Err, replying to myself… this exhibition at the Graves Gallery might be interesting, too: http://www.guardian.co.uk/artanddesign/2012/dec/31/leonard-beaumont-exhibition-sheffield-prints
