    As I`ve pointed out licencing is a major cost factor for any test broadcast. We want the station to become a permanent feature for our area. So basing it at the college is not an option. In fact tha

Brettly, good to see you at the gathering of minds last Sunday, I'm sure 4G pointed out who I was, sorry I never got a chance to introduce myself personally! It was great that so many of us turned up full of ideas and enthusiasm. As I have told John it was great to be involved again and contribute to, what can only be a good thing for Bedlington! We need, and I need, more of this, the people of the community pulling together to help each other for the good of Bedlington. I know that John sends his thanks and I would like to send my thanks as well, to all who are supporting this project. Cheers

I think this is exactly what we have to do Merlin, if we want to see any sort of improvements/development we have to do it for ourselves. Most of the other people there had spent the day doing hard work at another ‘community’ project and thanks to everyone who gave up their Sunday to help out there. I don’t expect any sort of help from ‘officialdom’ but then again woe betide anyone getting in the way!

First steps but they are good steps, we can all see what needs to be done let’s just get on a do it!

When we started out on this project it was stated that when we needed help the people of Bedlington would give us help!

That`s exactly what happened on Sunday.

Many thanks again from myself Colin, Neal & JT.

Keep your eyes peeled for the CW Davis vehicles when work commences.

Our very own Malcolm, Merlin, Brettly & others will also kindly be lending their expertise to our Bedlington based project.

Many thanks to them.

Foxy.

What you see in the pix is what is left after many TVs were disposed of.

Many thanks for the thought though.

Dear All

Those rather nice people at CW Davis (Builders & Developers extradinaire) have informed us that they are looking to start our studio development work next Wednesday, with materials being delivered on Monday!

On behalf of SNRG I would like to apologise to 4G & any dog inconvenienced.

You know what? I think I`m rather over the moon! :jump:

    Good for you John!

    Got your message and you were spot on, yes, I'm at work! :thumbsdown: Keep me informed m8.

    Was just glancing over wikipedia Bedlington page today and looks like someone has been doing some amending :)

    See what you mean Brettly. Thanks for pointing that out.

    Nice write up who ever did it.

    Dear All

    We are on the look out for a nice looking office desk to go in our station reception area.

    Could you please keep your eyes & ears open for this & other office stuff such as filing cabinets etc. as we are going to need them fairly soon.

    I know it`s a long shot to think that people are likely to be giving such stuff away for nothing, but just maybe, they will help us out.

    Our chairman Colin would eagerly come to collect.

    Many thanks,

    John. :D

    I am sure that any of the above desks could be put together for nothing but the price of materials quite easily and with the SNRG logo on the front it would look really smart.

    Let me road test the wine for you , John , before you offer it as a prize (I offer my wine testing services F.O.C.)

    How many times can you enter? :glare: I have about 400 blank envelopes lying round somewhere

    Dear All

    A reminder that in our forthcoming programming we will broadcast a weekly Live Lounge type programme.

    The studio recording time for this is being kindly donated by Pegswood based Loud & Flashy.

    If you would like to apply for a chance to take part please contact Si at:

    https://www.facebook.com/loudandflashy

    While you are there like for good measure.

    Also Loud & Flashy are running a Battle of the Bands type of competition for us. The winning entrant will have a superb album produced for them as their prize.

    Again contact Si with your details. Some examples of your music would be of great help to both potential recording opportunities.

    Good luck! :thumbsup:

    If you only found 400 you haven't looked hard enough ;)

    Just thought I`d give this post a bump as there are still a couple of days left to get that letter posted.

    Congratulations on the Co-operative community funding John. People finally seeing the project for what it is :)
