    Lead is just a standard CAT5 patch cable if you need a new one make sure you don't get conned into buying an "official XBox one" for a tenner or whatever they charge.

  11. 3 Words For Bedlington

    If you had 3 words to describe Bedlington what would they be?

    I realise this has the potential to end up as a typical town bashing but it's for a serious purpose so please try not to be too predictable and keep them positive.

    These could be adjectives, landmarks or any other word you would associate with the town.

    I`m using Windows XP Home Edition today and i`m having no problem viewing it?

    Yeah media player 11 will run on standard XP installs. "Genuine Advantage" validated of course ;)

    I agree though Channel 4 definately needs to rethink its player, unfortunately their business model and reliance on traditional advertising revenue prevents them from doing this.

  18. Fatal Crash At The Station

    It was an accident just up the road from Keenleysides. Apparantly one fatality. By the sounds of it a car was turning right at the junction or the little car park not sure which across the oncoming traffic and there was a collision with a motorbike. All heard second hand from people close to the scene, nothing confirmed.

    Santa's Bad Day

    One particular Christmas season a long time ago, Santa was getting ready for is annual trip, but there were problems everywhere. Four of his elves got sick, and the trainee elves did not produce the toys as fast as the regular ones so Santa was beginning to feel the pressure of being behind schedule. Then Mrs. Claus told Santa that her mom was coming to visit. This stressed Santa

    even more.

    When he went to harness the reindeer, he found that three of them were about to give birth and two had jumped the fence and were out, heaven knows where. More stress.

    Then when he began to load the sleigh one of the boards cracked, and the toy bag fell to the round and scattered the toys. So, frustrated, Santa went into the house for a cup of apple cider and a shot of rum.

    When he went to the cupboard, he discovered that the elves had hidden the liquor, and there was nothing to drink. In his frustration, he accidentally dropped the cider pot, and it broke into hundreds of little pieces all over the kitchen floor. He went to get the broom and found that mice had eaten the straw end of the broom.

    Just then the doorbell rang, and irritable Santa trudged to the door. He opened the door, and there was a little angel with a great Christmas tree.

    The angel said, very cheerfully, "Merry Christmas, Santa. Isn't it a lovely day? I have a beautiful tree for you. Where would you like me to stick it?"

    Thus began the tradition of the little angel on top of the Christmas tree.
