John Fox (foxy)

Foxy says.....have a great day!!      

 

What a sight! What a SOUND!

I followed "Vera's” flight back to the U.K. it created quite a lot of interest, wouldn't it be fitting to see a Spitfire and Hurricane do a a flypast with them.

Thanks for the post Mercury!

 

Sunderland Airshow but cannot remember the year. Mid Eighties 

I'm sure given all the time the  Ashington MP  has for this town, He'll not let us get stuffed again 

You haven't changed a bit, Foxy

Aye thats me on the far right of picture 2 wearing the Long overcoat and Headscarf 

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!!  

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. 

 let's hope you all make the right decision.....

The Union always flooded  the mess rooms in our workplace with Posters "advising" us which way to vote............wasn't always the "right decision"

No pictures of the Go Go but the Juncos are still going, he was probably wearing that coat when you last saw them,.. this is them at the Journal Tyne Theatre December last year. 

It's Happy Birthday wishes today for two more members Threegee and Alison,  and like the title says................We have an owld  un and a Beauty     

Look at Tonyp's picture in the Gallery" Me mam advertising" and then the Link that has been added by Fourgee in the comment section below said pic.

The Mayfair?

Happy Birthday wishes for two of our active members Keith and Eileen today, too near Xmas for any prezzies so youll both have to settle for a Kiss...............hang on, not sure where we'll find any volunteers for Keith     

So how about all Bedlington residents get together and stop paying their Council Tax ?

Merry Xmas you arguesome B*****s

Special request from Adam!!

B1b Bomber    

Nearly missed this one, it was the heat of the candles radiating up from the terrier that brought it to my attention!

        Have a Guddin old B*****    

I'm not sure that's a Harrow, the front end is more akin to the Bristol  Bombay, as Adam says. Lovely picture - got any more Foxy?

Aye merc,............ but how times have changed!!

I saw four groups there, mainly in the 70' - 80s.

Blue Jays (Justin Hayward & John Lodge after the Moody Blues split up);

City Hall June 1981

 

Just spent quite a bit time looking at footage of Thumper and Vera, along with so many other old aircraft. I have quite a few videos of aircraft and airshows 

Can you ID this one Vic? (the plane I mean) and maybe guess at the year. An old mate now deceased gave me the negative and asked if I could print a copy. It was thought a member of his family was in the picture but he never saw the print to confirm.

It only shows on my screen if I sign out of my account.

This is it now Symp  http://www.newspostleader.co.uk/

Not the best place, but then again...........   

Once ye get on thi bike,ya senses get tuned ti thi limit,and ya like an 18 yr aad inside ya heed,a mean,for reaction,awareness,etc.

 

150 MPH through this Road Junction,

                                                                 difficult to get the focus just right at these speeds and so close.

And here's a name HPW will know well!  

It is Keith,

                 I bought most of my records there in the 60s/70s  mind you I can only remember a Fella working there, Have you tried  Specsavers?   

HPW the record shop you mention was called "Olivers" It was next door to Mains Motorcycles which is now Als Video.
