ok here!

OK... I am a pretty patient person but what on earth is taking so long!? Its not like they are building a new shopping centre... In fact I think the improvements to Morpeth have happened in less time than its taken to lay some new pavements I hate to sound like a whinger... but if Elliots garage, the old school, the red lion, dun cow, Johnsons shoe shop, booze busters (and now I hear the blue bell is closing) again aren't sorted out, I fear that all the work will be in vein. The worst of the lot is Elliots... I know planning permission has been knocked back before, but something has got to be done before this down ends up looking like Wallsend in the 1980's! So... any ideas or views?

according to www.keystothepast.info puddlers lane changed name between 1926 and 1938

There is Pete, also in the Coquet and The Tweed, you'll not believe this but over the last few years one of the best rivers up here for salmon is....... wait for it ..........The Tyne! But that is no matter, it would be cheaper for me to fly to Alaska than pay for a permit to fish for salmon on these rivers! And then there are the waiting lists and of course whether your face fits!.For decent trout fishing it's £30 a day around here! Oh! and Pete you're not trying to tell me that fishing up here can compete with Alaska are you! :lol:

Okay enoughs enough, just been down the street and I noticed we have another shop opening soon,next to Don Lynne's! Low and behold it's another flaming HAIRDRESSERS. What are we the hairdressing capital of the flaming Northeast? 'A' listers flocking to Bedlington? I think not! Alright someone has set up a business and I wish them good luck, but come on, do we really need another one in Bedlington. Unusually for me I am at a loss for words(Well I got plenty but I'm trying to be good ) I really am struggling here to get my head round this Eh! What! This really baffles me, what's happening? Aaaaarrgh!
