A group of Hell's Angels were out riding their Harley's one Sunday when they spotted a woman about to jump off a bridge so they stopped and parked their bikes. The leader, a big burly mountain of a man says; *"What are you doing?” *"I'm going to commit suicide” *says the young woman. While he didn't want to appear totally insensitive, he didn't want to miss an opportunity either so he asked her; *"Well, before you jump, why don't you give me a kiss?”* And it was a long, deep, spine-tingling kiss. After she's finished, the bike leader says; *"Wow, that was the best kiss I've ever had. You have a real talent for it. You could be famous.Why in the world would you want to commit suicide?”* *"My parents don't like me dressing up as a girl!”* The Authorities think she may have been pushed - - -!

The South Shire will rise again.............

What we need is the old BUDC back! With the Shire divided into 3 , West, East and North, we have 3 times the costs for a tenth of the service!

I now have the original coat of arms for Bedlingtonshire Urban District Council. With a bit of luck and a good wind we should see it flying high once again, quite soon!

Apologies to any Irish viewers........ Bloke at a horse race whispers to Paddy next to him, "do you want the winner of the next race?" Paddy replies "no tanks, I've only got a small garden." Paddy and Mick found 3 hand grenades and decided to take them to the police station. Mick "What if one explodes before we get there?" Paddy: "We'll lie and say we only found two!" A coach load of paddys on a mystery tour decided to run a sweepstake to guess where they were going..... The driver won £52! Paddy's racing snail is not winning races anymore. So he decided to take it's shell off to reduce it's weight and make him more aerodynamic. It didn't work, if anything it made him more sluggish. Paddy finds a sandwich with two wires stickin out of it. He phones the police and says "Bejesas I've just found a sandwich dat looks like a bomb." The operator asks, "is it tickin?, Paddy says "No I tink it's beef" Joe says to Paddy: "Close your curtains the next time you're making love to your wife. The whole street was watching and laughing at you yesterday." Paddy says: "Well the joke's on them stupid because I wasn't even at home yesterday." Mick walks into Paddy's barn and catches him dancing naked in front of a tractor. Mick says, "Oh, no, Paddy, what ya doing?" Paddy says, "Well me and Mary haven't been getting on in the bedroom lately & the therapist recommended I do something sexy to a tractor." The Irish have solved their own fuel problems. They imported 50 million tons of sand from the Arabs and they're going to drill for their own oil. Paddy says to Mick - I'm ready for a holiday, only this year I'm going to do it a bit different. 3 years ago I went to Spain and Mary got pregnant. 2 years ago I went to Italy and Mary got pregnant. Last year I went to Majorca and Mary got pregnant." Mick asks - So what are you going to do this year?." Paddy replies, - I'll take her with me!" Paddy says to Mick, "Christmas is on a Friday this year" Mick says "Let's hope it's not the 13th." Paddy's in the bathroom and Murphy shouts to him. "Did you find the shampoo?" Paddy says, "Yes but it's for dry hair and I've just wet mine."

Have a good day........

Like it...............but where's Megan?

I kind of agree GGG but I was at an event last week where people who had never been to the Town remarked on just how nice it is looking with the newly revamped shop fronts etc. Just take a look at other towns with the same level of empty premises! I think it's great we got that £2M (?) investment but without follow up and concentrated effort it will go the same way as every investment into the town has ever gone…… so we need to be using it to springboard further upgrades both in the fabric and the economy of the town.

I had just reviewed the You Tubes which went in with the various town Portas bids and personally I wouldn't have given any of them 100p never mind 100K! Before I gave any reasons here's the Newbiggin one and there are plenty more from our area!

The Euro In light of the latest problems facing the European currency, e.g. Ireland and Portugal having had a bailout Greece facing collapse and needing another bailout, a Belgian bank collapsing and now Italy teetering on the brink and possibly tipping Austria over the edge... Should the UK adopt the Euro? A cross-section survey of 10,000 people in Ashington , U.K. , made up of a representative sample of local citizens consisting of Afghans, Albanians, Pakistanis, Poles, Iraqis, Somalis, Bosnians, Turks, Moldovans, Latvians, Lithuanians, Bangladeshis, Ethiopians, Russians, Congolese and Zimbabweans were asked if they thought Britain should change its currency. 99.9% said no, they were happy with the Giro.

Foxy.............. How on earth would anyone younger than Methuselah or yourself ever know that???????? Never ever saw the place in my life.

Could it be the Light Studio?

Looks to me like the joke is on the viewers. The artists collude with the art world intelligencia, itself a definition in self-delusional disorders, and actually con the spectators into swallowing their !*!@# ! When everything is pared down to the lowest common denominator what is left is, in actual fact, is worthless! Here's another Lovverly trying to justify his salary by giving Tracy houseroom. http://www.guardian.co.uk/artanddesign/jonathanjonesblog/2011/dec/15/tracey-emin-draw-royal-academy

Is it just me or is Tracy Emin a triumph of bullXXXT over talent? She is now a professor of drawing and has a show at the Margate Gallery…….. Here's her Queen drawing…… I think she deserves ridicule not applause!

Just doesn't stop................ and this off Camerooon's pet project! http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-18223324

Thinking of going to Turkey for your holidays........... thinking of hiring a car to get aorund.......don't!

Is it still there foxy?

Anyone else wondering............................ http://www.london2012.com/torch-relay/torchbearers/community=bedlington/

Is that your round twice now then foxy?????

The building which now has to let offices above and the restaurant and Booze Busters (or whatever) underneath? To the right-hand of Tino's Deli.

I have looked into it Sym………… that why I asked about a Bedlington Crest or Logo or whatever. There are two banners in Woodhorn but they are in very fragile states. They are the NUM Bedlington pit banners. Only way we could get them was to pay a hefty insurance and even then one is dropping to bits! We could get paper copies but that's a non-starter with our weather! I now believe BUDC did have a crest and I have a team of amateur detectives trying to track down an image. If I can get an image we might be able to screen print onto a banner or flag or summ'ik.......... There were two or three wooden crests made too but they disappeared when BUDC did..........anyone know the whereabouts of them? Great to have something unique to the Town to use.........................
