Brian Cross

I second that one Brian, but can't get Smith's crisps with the little blue bag of salt!

we get smiths crisps here but sadly no blue salt bag and they are called chips ...

I'm working my way there at least i'd avoid the rain.

You are a truly dedicated administrator .........

My favorite ham sandwich.....two slices of fresh white buttered bread place a couple of slices leg ham on bottom slice then get a bag of salted crisps put a good handful on t5op of ham then put top slice on crisps and squash down .......heaven

Just got in from putting out some bedlington.co.uk flyers and I'm now totally soaked through and fed up. This Chinchilla's peperroni special is doing a good job of cheering me up though

You missed my front door .........

About the quality of the cricket or about Flintoff's contribution?

Swann had better bowling and batting figures than Flintoff. Strauss was the top run scorer and an inspirational leader. Flintoff's contribution, other than his excellent five-for in the second innings at Lord's, was largely ephemeral.

About Flintoff's contribution,considering his apparent injuries and his presence on the field seemed to install fire in the England side, the Australian commentator's and me seem to agree on this point dunno could be wrong........

Sounds a bit like Fort Bronx

oh yea i will be over there in 13 days can you guys clear these problems before i get there

wey am only pointing out the title of the topic!

I know mate Ta

With Cheese Farm cheese. And currents. But not at the same time. And you Monsta?

BTW... GGG... Any chance of a cookery section on here? I have some lovely chutney recipes that I don't mid sharing...

The scones sound delicious can you post the chutney recipes

It's nearly September, but it's still sunny! We have a load of cattepillars in our garden... some of them look a bit poisonous, but that's ok. Jupiter is visable in the crisp evenings now. It's a bank holiday weekend: I'm going to bake some scones later, while listening to my new pop-romantique record... life is pretty good!

Yes, things aren't perfect, the country is still in a recession, it's going to get cold, the cattepillars have eaten our cabbages and the Pre-Raphelite boys aren't on BBC2 anymore... but things could be worse...

Yet, anger, it still exists... part of the complexity of human nature, manifesting itself in so many guises... police cars have been flying around all day, scuffles were noted on the Front Street yester evening, even on this site the inner turmoil of some appears in the guise of ill-informed aggresion...

So I ask of you, whether you are angry, or simply empathise with the anger of others... what do you consider to be cause of such emotion?

Getting back to the important thing how do you make your scones..........

Thanks for clearing that up that point for me Monsta I mean the Stakeford thing and i do find it hard to read without my vision enhancers on my head........

my cousin gets curry from a shop in ashington it is as good as you will get any where

I would just like to say this man was found guilty in a legal court of law and sentenced to how ever many years of jail and then he was released on compassionate grounds but if one of us were convicted of the same crime in his home country we would have been beheaded or worse very soon after the conviction, no chance of compassionate release.

If you're talking about the 2005 series then I agree with you.

However, the 2009 series was a far weaker affair. Both teams were pretty poor. While Flintoff battled bravely against his debilitating knee injury, he was a shadow of the player that dominated in 2005.

Strauss was the player of the series.

I disagree with you H P

What about the great win by England over their traditional rivals Australia. it was a great test series and the man of the series has to be Freddie Flintoff does any one agree ?

Whats the story behind the release of the lockerbie bomber what sort of idiot would let a madman loose from incarceration on compassionate grounds i bet the person had no relatives on the Pan Am jet...

My vote would have gone for Willie Nelson

Any idea when when all this work will finish ?

Hope you have a great day Esme

How many inches/mls have you had

Happy Birthday Slodge hope you had a good one

Yea no boozers might be a problem Malcolm but i will be back around the middle of Sept

The economic down turn just became personnel after 18 years with the club my job was made redundant 3 weeks ago (sacked) on the upside i have plenty of time to visit Bedlington and my relatives so i will be back in September do any of the forum guys get to-gether and have a drink somewhere

so nen body gans fishing then!

looks like it monsta,, you could always come over here for a holiday and i could show you some excellent reef fishing

I think most of us have happy memories regarding the black bridge mine were of climbing up under the north side of the bridge with a young lady a couple of times

I have recently bought a 2003 Nissan patrol 4wd 3ltr turbo charged diesel, its a great car and i hope it gives me the same reliability as the car it replaces. a 1998 Ford Falcon 6 cyl 4ltr petrol i have kept the ford as i would not get much for it.
