Waste Bins
Both facebook sites I've posted this on show comments that confirm it's happening all over the town. Someone from Blyth says It's also happening there, It's probably a good idea to set up a database where residents can add the post numbers that are causing an obstruction, it can then be handed to NCC to rectify the problem before the contractors disappear, if not compensation claims will be flooding in.

Our town developments.
The housing will come first, and as there already is an abundance of empty properties in Bedlington that the young people cannot afford, new Tennants who will qualify for benefits will soon be Shipped in. Watch this space. .

Lost thread
Whist trying to delete part of a post I was writing I've just deleted the whole Poor TV reception thread by mistake and since the website was upgraded I cannot find anywhere that I can restore it. Sorry folks but I'll have to get on to someone with better IT skills than myself. Hopefully normal service can be resumed as soon as my disciplinary hearing is conducted

Live! Problem?
They've replaced the street light outside my house thie week with an LED narrow beam low light replacement. Not sure how the Boffins describe these replacements but If I had a corner shop I would be stocking up with candles for the expected rush of sales. I also suspect an appointment with a no win no fee solicitor to become popular.

Winds of Change
Two more months and it's the anniversary of the Make a Noise demonstration, the only thing that has changed since, is the Market Place looks more derilict, however we are almost a year closer to that five year project being completed.

Amble On
Coincidence you should mention that now, I hadn't been for a while and went there on Saturday, lots of changes and all for the better. Plenty decent eateries, I had a bit of a nose around and noticed a visitors book that had positive comments in from local people as well as others from Scotland , London and the USA. Well done Amble... It'll be interesting to see how their councillors voted on the County Hall move!

Symp It's a section in front of the Courthouse that was overlooked when building was ongoing, since then houses have been built but access to them is restricted, I've tried to add a pic but for some reason it will not upload.

Just Wondering.
After a recent request by myself to the West Bedlington Town Council to have a footpath installed in a known dangerous location, I was told that NCC were to be contacted and requested to survey the situation. At the most recent WBTC meeting it was stated that NCC had been on site and quoted their price to undertake the work. In the meantime contractors working for NCC have installed a new lamp post to replace the existing corroded post. For "ease" the new post has been installed half a metre forward, thus blocking any footpath that may be built now or in the future. I'm Just Wondering if the footpath is going to be built, does anyone care about the money that is being wasted to relocate the post due to lack of communications at County Hall ? Past experience tells me, don't bother contacting them, your wasting your time. I've tried previously to place my comments in the News Post Leader only for the newspaper to edit my correspondence in favour of NCC. I know there are representatives of the County Council visiting this website regularly, would any one of you like to comment?

NCC Consultation.
Your probably right Maggie but at the moment there are lots of people who aren't using the car parks, I've never known a town with so many individuals who prefer to park on restricted areas of the front street and cause mayhem.
