  1. But in reality we ended up with the Dogs**t and there now enjoying rubbing our noses in it.
  2. That Bag sounds a bit Racist
  3. Another derilect site on its way to the heart of the conservation area, even if the legal issues get sorted will the place be a success? The council run golf club flopped (their admission it was running at a loss) and then became a success when it was sold off to the members,and is now making money. Does this not tell us something, This same council that has c**cked up with the planning permission for Elliots Garage and the Church School (they admit the fact but blame the old Wansbeck District Council) who, to use their well worn phrase "They don't exist any longer" so I wouldn't hold my breath waiting for them to sort this one out. Just to rub salt in the wound,the money for the sale of the golf club ended up with, "They don't exist any longer" so Bedlington got nowt. Not a very good track record, but keep trying.
  4. So do you have a sense of humour?
  5. I think you must have all gone mad, surely Judy Garland gets it in one with SOMEWHERE OVER THE RAINBOW and the Wizard of Oz could sort out Merlins problems on the Yellow Brick Road in Ridge Terrace .
  6. Merlin,your wasting your time complaining,at a meeting this week it was suggested that there should be MORE yellow lines painted on the road along there.I can't see the point of yellow lines when the one's that are already in place are ignored throughout the town. As I've said in previous posts, the hotspot of illegal and dangerous parking is within 50 yards of the police station and nowts done so what chance have you got.
  7. Bet that hurt.
  8. Doe's any of the Station Folk remember Benny's travelling shop doing the rounds on a Sunday morning?
  9. Actually Wales is the only country where you can get a delicious Hotpot, a smashing jumper and a decent s**g all from the same animal.
  10. Happy to oblige Brian,cannot see owt of Pottsy or Keith though must of been playing truant that day.
  11. Kill the cat, Get rid of your lass!
  12. I'll go along with that,I've always liked the Birds!
  13. Spot on, they did'nt loose much sleep about Murderer Mugabee.
  14. So where is the money coming from to pay for the weapons? Thought we had nowt, Suppose they could always cut down on the guest list at the forthcoming wedding,but they will probably go for the easy option and make more cuts that kicks joe public in the b***s.
  15. Could be the new Lollypop man at the Ridge Terrace obstacle course.
  16. Four German dwarfs went to Amsterdams red lignt district and hired the services of a 6ft tall prostitute. They went back to their hotel room stripped off, tied springs to their feet and gave her the time off her life. Its whats known in the business as THE FOUR SPRUNG DWARF TECHNIQUE.
  17. Seems to be an awful lot of secrecy about the place, no advertising. Looking at all these posts. Assuming the pub is open Makes one wonder if they want anyone in there.
  18. Mistaken identity here Malcolm,Dr Pit introduced himself to me on the street last week and thats definitly him.
  19. If you have no success finding any photographs,just have a look at Elliots Garage in the conservation area of our town, that should give a good idea of what it was like. You will need to be quick though Council Planning reckon the foundations for the new building will be in by the end of the week.!!!!!!
  20. Well then we may have met at some time because I lived in the houses on the right with my granny until we moved to the new council estate opposite the cemetry/ridge farm. I think one of the houses on the left was used by the Bedlington Harriers before they were knocked down,I was probably one of the kids that you remember going to the Whitley School,(more clues for Dr Pit aka Inspector Morse)
  21. Is this the one?
  22. And when God was giving out heads,they thought he said sheds,so they asked for a big wooden one!!!!!!
  23. How about the one's that knock on your door and say "Sorry to bother you but" If there sorry why did they knock in the first place? You can guarantee Its between 5-7 oclock when folks are usually eating.Just the right time to sign up for a buy the glass and get the frames for nowt deal that you cannot refuse.
  24. To be fair Brian when I "joined up" I did'nt realise you were expected to introduce yourself, probably due to my inexperiance with websites etc.I only became aware when reading another post a couple of weeks ago (keith I think) that it was an issue. Too late for me, but perhaps LinziBinzi still has time to put it right.
  25. I will do that along with another shot of him, and a shot of another well known character in the town just as soon as I work out how to do it! I'm not too good with all this modern high tech stuff. OOOOOOOps, hope Dr Pit does'nt read this he's sure to blame the old age.
