Aye Maggie,there was aalwis thi "Bogie Man",and "Gillie the Ghost",[who,I was told years and years ago,that there was

someone [human!],used ti gaan oot ti frighten folks,wi a white bed sheet owa he's heed!

When I was five years old,and just started thi Infants School at Bedlington Market-place,we were terrified of a character called "Saaasa-eyes"..[saucer-eyes..],and this character was supposed to have eyes as big as saucers,and chased little children on thier way home from the school!!

Looking back,I wouldn't mind betting it was a crazy way of ensuring all the kids ran home as fast as possible!!

[Mother's didn't wait outside of the school gates in thier big monster jeeps,in those days!!!...circa 1949-50-ish!..]
