Stax at it`s very best:

What a disappointment. It missed out the 1973 FA Cup Final!

I had 2 tyres punctured on my previous vehicle by vandals. I discovered it one Sunday morning & phoned it in. There was an officer around within 10 minutes. An update was given to me about the previous night`s attacks on vehicles in the neighbourhood, where an arrest had been made. The following Wednesday evening another officer came & took a victim statement & gave me a crime number for insurance use. As good a service as you can get I think in the circumstances. No complaints from me on that occasion.

...And Yagi Bear! Sorry. It was the nearest I could get to an aerial joke.

Update A number of unlocked dwellings in St. Johns Place were entered on Sunday Oct.14 between 10.30am & 1pm. Description of person: white male 5ft 7in tall slim build cropped hair

Never in doubt!

I thought I would start this thread off following a "Door To Door" visit by Northumbria Police tonight. St. Johns Road has recently been the target of at least one opportunist burglary. I believe a door was left unlocked. A property was entered & item or items stolen. Let us keep each other informed with such matters that sadly blight our community. Forewarned is to be forearmed.

Canny Lass. The School Board man is now known as the Welfare Officer. Northumberland has a dept to deliver this role. This from last year might be of interest to you: http://www.chronicle...72703-28428655/ The school I work at has an Inclusion Policy which works hard at getting kids back into school. Some Associate Staff have this as their role. Indeed one is like an out reach worker. Malcolm is right not all kids are academic & there should be greater value attributed to vocational courses. My 37 years at KEVI has seen lots of excellent kids come through courses such as BTec & gone on to be very successful. I was never academic at school. I went on to a Technical College which was one of the first to run a TV Production course & my old lecturer gave me the bug for TV & Radio & my first job in media when I joined the unit on a temporary basis. I remain eternally grateful to my old lecturer Dave. Thank you Sir!
