  1. Just Bounces off him Neil, he's not interested in Bedlington but he'll be getting the Sat Nav out soon and popping over for our vote.
  2. Threegee, you may have missed this one but I've been told the guy immediate left of Bevan (right on the pic) is Willy Hall the Bedlington Scout Master. The photo came from his Daughter along with other postcards so...................?
  3. Well done Eggs!!! you'll have to get yourself up here and give me some tuition, you may recognise some of the characters in my old pic collection followed by a pint in Wethers
  4. Pictures kindly provided by Maggie911 You'll have to stand on your head to see them, I've tried to rotate them but they have a mind of their own, I'm sure Eggy will manage!!
  5. The owner was at the last Council Meeting giving an update on the lack of progress at the site. He assured the members of the public at the meeting (single figures, so not a lot of interest there then) that the Care Home would be open in July. Although he didn't say what year it would be it was assumed he meant 2015
  6. Westlea houses match the ones in the photo, another member on here sent some pics yesterday I'll see if said member will upload them.
  7. Have anyone noticed the Lady standing at the front door in the background?
  8. Where's Maggs when we need her
  9. Those silos in the pic were not Alcans pilgrim, they were the Grain Plants
  10. Can anyone name the occasion or the place of the attached pic, it was included with some old postcards of Bedlington that I bought from a dealer. It looks like the Waverley Avenue area to me but maybe Keith Lockey will be able to identify/confirm? Symp if you are one of the characters in the picture I'll send you a framed copy postpaid without Watermark Looks a bit like Councillors out on a Freebee to me any ideas?
  11. Have you given any advance notice that your vacating Table 25?
  12. Christopher, the friendly moderators on this site have an opinion as well as the friendly members on this site. You've had four people giving advice and each one gets a negative from you, What is it your looking for?
  13. Its hardly Rocket Science.........Its now becoming........... boring
  14. I would have tried Land Registry, when I bought the freehold for my property they sent me a plan of my Gardens and boundaries, it just about shows where every spuggie sh***s.
  15. Cannot be me Merc, I would be playing catch kissy with the girls when that pic was taken
  16. Choppington Stn
  17. Toffo, have you ever considered going to the Council Meeting and voicing your own opinions? There are only nine regular residents who attend these meetings, it would certainly help if we could have more support from the people in the Town.
  18. Foxy says.....have a great day!!
  19. Sunderland Airshow but cannot remember the year. Mid Eighties
  20. I'm sure given all the time the Ashington MP has for this town, He'll not let us get stuffed again
  21. Aye thats me on the far right of picture 2 wearing the Long overcoat and Headscarf
  22. These pictures were on here previously for our members to enjoy but were removed when someone was "stealing" them for financial gain. Lets try again!!
  23. Lavery's let nearly four years pass by doing absolutely nothing for Bedlington. Other than fighting for grants and investment into Ashington and of course lets not forget the new stand at his football club that is being supported by Arch the development company (Northumberland County Council). His only other activity that springs to mind is his personal battle for Justice for an Industrial Dispute that he was involved in thirty years ago. Many of his constituents in this town are too young to remember that dispute but lets hope they remember the last four years when election time comes around. The sad part is our County Councillors think the Sun shines out of his backside, Bedlington is a long way down on his list of priorities, He's only making noises now because elections are on the horizon however other than his clique over here, I cannot think of anyone in the Town that would have reason to vote for him.
  24. The Union always flooded the mess rooms in our workplace with Posters "advising" us which way to vote............wasn't always the "right decision"
