Does anyone know if there is any way we can collectively support the project... ie; petitions to go ahead, writing to anyone etc!

I think we need to act rather than sit back and wait to see if it happens!

It gets my vote!

You can leave comments via the planning portal, they don't have to be in opposition.

Good stuff. What did you get in exchange?

Which IPhone? and what network?

He's joking of course. Clunkiness of N900 does not appeal to me in the slightest.

You are gonna love this...

Have you considered using the blogs feature Malcolm for a political commentary? It may help keep things more organised and is still publicly viewable.

Tri Northumberland are hosting two exciting new events in Newbiggin in July.

Couple Swim Challenge

Starting at 6:30pm the swim will take place in the bay on Friday 23rd July and is expected to be completed by 7:30pm.

Couple Challenge Triathlon

The triathlon will take place on Saturday 24th July at 12.00 noon

with a 1900m Sea Swim over 2 laps, taking competitors in and out of the sea.

The bike will complete a 2 lap course to Amble and round Lynemouth, before

returning to Newbiggin. This will start around 12.30pm and extend until 4.40pm.

Your help in keeping the main street as clear as possible, particularly from

12.30pm tilll 1.00pm, as triathletes leave Newbiggin would be really appreciated.

The run will follow a 4 lap course along the full length of the promenade with the first runners leaving the transition at around 2.45pm. Most runners will finish by 6.00pm and the event should be fully complete by around 7.00pm.

We hope these two events will attract support from visitors as well as the local community.

Come down to the promenade and see what's happening and help to give everyone a great experience.

I refuse to rely on any consumer report from a magazine that you can't open from the bottom left corner.

They've got him and he's currently passing Bedders on his way to hospital.

The reward is being doubled to £20,000 on Monday if he hasn't been found by then. It's a Raoulover week you see.

Not a good sign that, Police offering a reward. Like a surgeon saying "You'll be fine. Do you have life insurance by the way?"

Don't tell me.... Weatherspoons are buying the Red Lion?

"Just don't hold it that way" Why do I have a feeling that one is going to come back and bite.

4G nice cut and paste!

If it lands in my inbox i'm not going to retype it that's the whole idea of the site.

Incidentally this is what happens when a news article is posted now. The forum discussion topic is auto generated and comments are synced between the two.

Happy birthday Debra!

As you are probably aware Bedlington, like the rest of the county, has been and will be hit with a package of cuts while Northumberland County Council re-adjusts its financial budgets. One of these measures has been to put our Community Centre on closure notice.

To try and mitigate the effects of these cuts, and to bring in additional value for our communities, a Development Trust for Bedlingtonshire has been formed. This Development Trust has formally registered an interest in taking over the Community Centre in an effort to keep it open and accessible for us all. A business plan is being worked on which will go before Northumberland County Council for their consideration.

A vital part of this business plan will be to ask the community for voluntary help in the initial stages of a possible takeover.

By reading this you have already registered an interest in community life within Bedlington and we would therefore respectfully ask if you could consider helping us in our endeavours. We need a handful more people who are willing to give up some of their time to keep the Community Centre open. This should be a short term initiative as development plans are being considered which will make the Community Centre sustainable and allow for its normal commercial viability.

We believe our Community Centre can/will and should be the heart of our community and if that is something you agree with please contact us for further information or leave your thoughts in the comments.

Brian Oliver,

Secretary.

Bedlingtonshire Development Trust.

the further east you go the worse I get apparently.

Ah well in that case you should...

Even making the link text something like this would have helped!

OK that is true. Must try harder

If there has been only 30,000 posts, how come your post is number 31,929?

We had to remove 1,929 of Mongos.

you should know as well as anyone that links break!

[/rant]

Well no they shouldn't actually, the whole idea of the web is persistent hyperlinking, it's not a temporary media like your olde world newspapers you know

and there isn't anything broken about that link.

What to expect?

Fantastic live demonstrations on the cooking bus!

Meet local businesses who will be giving away free samples and selling their produce.

Ted's Picnic performance by The Panto Company.

5 a side football tournament with NUFC coaches.

Live musical entertainment.

BBQ and Northumbrian hog roast.
