M&S bras and panties guy, now on-line grocer, Stuart Rose at the launch of the "IN campaign" in London yesterday: There's huge logic in that - not! If I was a villain somewhere else in Europe I simply wouldn't be getting here because the UK government would once again have the right to say I couldn't come Mr Rose! But, I suspect you knew that already. If Stuart Rose is the best duplicitous Dave can muster to head up the IN campaign then they are in for a hard time. He isn't at all convinced himself, as you can read in much of the material he's formerly approved as a chief of of anti-EU group Business for Britain. That he's agreed to help out his chum Dave and other embattled big-business types is really just the old boy's network in full flow. His reward for this will undoubtedly be elevation to the peerage. So cosy that our Country has such clear and predictable paths to glory, but... it's as nothing compared with the Brussels feeding trough, and its unparalleled failed-domestic-politico's retirement system!

Latest news from tonights meeting Brian, SENRUG the campaign group do want Bedlington Station reopened. I also got the impression Ashington would probably be a priority if County Hall were relocated there, as Cilla Black would say................ Surprise Surprise!!

They must have heard the Benefits are better here.

Why would trains not stop at the Station

Heh heh!! 1959,1963,1966,reminds me when all the buses were laid off at times,and me and my marra,s WALKED....NO!....TRUDGED......four miles across the thick snow covered fields,from Bedlington ti Choppington High Pit,worked shifts underground,soaked to the skin all shift,freezing caad stannin at thi shaft-bottom waitin for thi cage ti bank,at lowse,bathed,dressed,and trudged fower miles back yem,ready for wa dinner......syem agyen thi next day, for days on end!!! A knaa!! ....cue the violins and hankies!!,but true,noo can yi imagine ANY kids,[or even some adults!] willing ti dae that ti put bread on thi tyeble? My philosophy is....."God gie ye waataproof skin man,wat are ye complaining aboot?.....ye drrry oot thi syem way ye got wet.......tha's people owa thi otha side of thi world in war zones,tsunami's,hurricane's ,desert conditions........THEY have got the problems man,nae roofs owa tha heeds...nae food for tha kids......."....some people find my philosophy irritating,and have replied selfishly that that doesn't help them at aal....!! Whey it certainly keeps MY head on an even keel. I was dying 2 years ago,one phone call,ten minutes later I was hooked up to oxygen,cardiograph,blood monitoring,etc,by the ANGELS on the road wi green claas on,and blue leets! Let the -20 C come!! Aal still be oot wi me LBJ..[Little Black Jess!],dress for it,and it's nae different ti PLUS 20 C !! Heh heh....end of one of Wilma's rare rants!!
