Just wondering what everyone thinks should happen with the church hall, I think it should be a Heritage Centre for Bedlington, i would like to hear everyone elses opinions on what they think it should be. (Bare in mind it is repairable from it current state.)

Yes, but they must be in the same tray as Tesco's not sure if its the "in" tray or the "out" we'll just have to sit back and wait. Alternatively you could pop into the next Council Meeting, I'm not sure when it is though, as you know it is Xmas Panto Time

Oh no it isn't.

Is that referring to the council meetings or the fact they can't get the rooms because of the panto?

If there are any slate flagstones around the back, they should be given to me for the patio out of the back. As for the rest of it, unless we have a sudden surge of people wanting to attend community events and changing the whole attitude of the commuters of Bedlington then a heritage centre wouldn't survive long with the lack of funding etc available at the moment.

As long as it's not another old peoples home!

In a nutshell Brett, well said, unfortunately.

Absolutely right Brettly

I whent to that school... happy memories. Pity it couldn't be put to use as a place that would benefit the youth of the town, or even some form of learning centre for adults

Bear in mind that a bare behind is what you'll find when you're in a bind 'cause you've been blind and the bear behind isn't terribly kind.

All together! It's b-e-h-i-n-d you!!!
