Adam Hogg Posted July 2, 2012 Posted July 2, 2012 All I have to say about the THI is excellent work, they all deserve a big thank you, pat on the back and a drink.
Canny lass Posted July 2, 2012 Posted July 2, 2012 I think Bedlington's looking great. Can't wait to get there and see it for myself!

Brett Posted July 3, 2012 Posted July 3, 2012 Where's the station?Glad to see that the pharmacy and munchie moo's are planned for renovation according to the stars on the map.
John Fox (foxy) Posted July 4, 2012 Posted July 4, 2012 Council Planning Department assured us that after many !*!@# ups building work was to begin mid April on the former Elliots Garage site. Its now July and Guess What.

It always seems to get lost somewhere between me typing and clicking post Brettly, you are doing just fine without it mate, ha ha. Just drive in the opposite direction to that of which the NCC gardeners vans and grass cutters are travelling, you may just find Bedlington Station among the weeds and undergrowth. The Station itself ? long gone, long forgotten and never to be ressurected it seems. (looks like my sarcasm button is working just fine, sunshine)
P.A.W.S. Posted July 6, 2012 Posted July 6, 2012 The Station - a great project for the bench-burners who have "nothing to do".

A half barrel has been placed in front of St. Johns and planted with marigolds. Just a pity they never cut the grass , weeded and re-planted the existing beds first.

Just because the Raisbeck has stopped running dosent mean you cant get to the station anymore, it is still there.

'cos the place is a bloody mess.Yep and its not as if we don't pay for the service or it used to be a service we paid for in the WDC then the NCC rates. Seems to me someone has decided to only cut about half a metre in from the roads irrespective of how much grass there is wherever.... 1 pass with the flail mower?

By the way Keith I'm off on a weeks holiday but by the time I get back do you think you could explain to me what a Monkeys Chuff Is? It sounds quite interesting. :whistle: Edited July 7, 2012 by foxy
