  1. 100% agree with that Adam
  2. This bartender is in a bar, when this really hot chick walks up and says in a sexy seductive voice, "May I please speak to your manager?" He says, "Not right now, is there anything I can help you with?" She replies, "I don't know if you're the man to talk to...it's kind of personal..." Thinking he might get lucky, he says, "I'm pretty sure I can handle your problem, miss." She then looks at him with a smile, and puts two of her fingers in his mouth...and he begins sucking them, thinking "I'm in!!!" She says, "Can you give the manager something for me?" The bartender nods...yes. "Tell him there's no toilet paper in the ladies toilets
  3. A man limps into a bar with a cane and alligator. The bartender stops him and says "Hold on a second here - you can't bring that animal in here, they aren't allowed!" So the man says, "But my gator here does a really cool trick..." The bartender says "Well then, let's see!" So the man whips out his willy and shoves it in the gators mouth. He then takes his cane and starts bashing the gator in the head with it. A crowd gathers around and everyone is astonished when he pulls out his willy without a single scratch. He looks around at the crowd and says, "Does anyone else want to try?" An old lady raises her hand and says..."Sure, but don't hit me with that stick."
  4. Sherlock Holmes and Dr Watson go on a camping trip. After a good dinner and a bottle of wine, they retire for the night, and go to sleep. Some hours later, Holmes wakes up and nudges his faithful friend. "Watson, look up at the sky and tell me what you see.†"I see millions and millions of stars, Holmes†replies Watson. "And what do you deduce from that?†Watson ponders for a minute. "Well, · Astronomically, it tells me that there are millions of galaxies and potentially billions of planets. · Astrologically, I observe that Saturn is in Leo · Horologically, I deduce that the time is approximately a quarter past three. · Meteorologically, I suspect that we will have a beautiful day tomorrow But what does it tell you, Holmes?†Holmes is silent for a moment. "Watson, you idiot!†he says. "Someone has stolen our tent!â€
  5. Off topic but will Diesel/Petrol and a greggs pasty still be affordable in 2015?
  6. Hurry back soon John as I shall miss the Saturday local football updates. Any idea when your back on air?
  7. Febuary 9th, 2015 work to commence at 10 17 am. If I win I am prepared to swap first prize for the Greggs pasty
  8. Joe Moscadini own the cafe at the station he also owned the billiard hall near the pictures His wife and son (Bernard) ran the cafe
  9. Its a strange situation Malcolm but surly NCC must have a stake in this somewhere. It looks like the ending on the youtube vid could come to pass, the historic gates sitting in a shed gatering dust in North Yorks for years to come.
  10. Happy Birthday Brian, hope you have a great day
  11. First one that pays the bill by the looks of it
  12. You have probably see this on BBC North East but I found it very interesting
  13. Happy Birthday Vic, hope you have a great day
  14. If only Malcolm. I will look at the lottery results tonight and realise its plan B ( short rations) until next lottery results on Saturday
  15. Adam, There is a post on the forum that goes along simmular lines to what you are saying, and you are right Bedlington has more history than Ashington. The post that I am referring to was in relation to the Iron works and did state that if Bedlington had created a museum down the woods where the Iron works was, then there would not have been a Beamish. Not sure who the original poster was but it should still be on the forum somewhere.
  16. No Foxy I was not aware that Asington where getting a new leisure centre but that reminds me of when I lived in Bedlington, Ashington had the indoor swimming pool whilst Bedlington had Humford baths, Humford baths where better by far in the summer anyway.
  17. I did understand what you meant but with councils today they probaly would put historic gates on a leisure centre.
  18. Foxy, I understand the point that you are making and fully agree but the reason that I mentioned the minning museum was because miners from Ashington and Bedlington would have used Hartford hall. As for putting them in front of a Leisure Centre,well I think that would be an insult to the past. If Bedlington can not have then then the minning museum seems the next best option or to use Malcom's words they will end up on a none existant road. Still, the problem of getting them from Chris topps Iron Works, heafty bill I would think,
  19. Reading your reply Malcom it would appear that the gates have to go back to Hartford Hall, but was this place not the NCB rehabilitation centre when the pits were working? It would be in the interest of Bedlington and the surrounding area for these gates to be located in Bedlington as part of its history or even in the minning museum as a tribute to the many miners that went through a reabiltation program owing to injury in the mines.
  20. Synergy John W I have been listening to Synergy on the Internet and its great to hear local Bedlington news, to hear an update of the local football teams on Saturday is great. Its a bit like being back in Bedlington when I listen to Synergy. Wishing you best of luck with the future of the radio station hope everything works out, Great job, well done.
  21. Malcom Is this the same place as the missing gates? Is there any news on the gates? Could plans to build new homes help in the restoration of the gates? http://www.journallive.co.uk/north-east-news/todays-news/2012/03/13/hartford-hall-homes-dispute-is-set-to-go-public-61634-30517964/
  22. A cure for a bad cough that was used in our house was to get two slices of turnip, place the first slice on a plate and cover it with sugar, place the second slice on top of the first slice and leave it in the pantry for twenty four hours then drink the juice. Not sure if it worked but it tasted nice.

    Just checked that link John W its fantastic, the opening night schedule brings back memories. Threegee mentioned Robin Hood and it was indeed the first program. Highway Patrol was the program that I was thinking of but one that did bring back memories was Double your Money hosted by Hughie Green, you could buy the board game in the fifties and I remember playing it with some friends. One program that I do remember from the fifties and I am not sure if it was on the commercial channels or BBC, was a program called The Grove family, one of the main characters was Granny Grove,do you or anyone remember this program?
  24. Yes Canny Lass you are correct but I am not sure if his name was Alan or Jimmy. I remember the memorial service at the YM.
