  1. A colloquialism for died Vic.
  2. Yes for the stocks Tony but I can think of many many more popular choices for being thrown in them than the two you mention!
  3. I said it gonna be Blyth next after Ashington.................. Oh well its only phase 1 ........... http://www.newspostleader.co.uk/news/local/opening-of-new-scheme-1-6945983?utm_medium=twitter&utm_source=twitterfeed
  4. Seconded! But 1 should be "we are free 'men' not obligated to pay for facitlites and services in Ashington!"
  5. Which history books do you read Tony? The ones I read say King John was a snivelling little toe rag who tried to put one over on his family and the country? Most of the barons rebelled because they didn't want this dictatorial piece of 'one T' to have Devine right over them.
  6. Maybe GGG but the Omertà forbids me from saying so……….
  7. See Warren has stopped taking sugar. Been in some pretty good stuff Warren. Really liked his recent TV stuff too.
  8. Tony that would be preferable to saying our leader walks on water just before they hold him under it!
  9. Hallelujah let there be light! Spot on Merc it's the private sector who could and should be making the jobs it's the public sector who should be providing the necessary infrastructure to enable the private sector to make that happen. The need for partnership is unequivocal, however the disconnect more than apparent.
  10. Basically Bedlingtonshire goes from the Blyth to the Wansbeck...backing up to the A192 and the sea on the other side. Runs off down a small stream on the A192 before Hepscott. AFAIK!
  11. Might RETIRE there myself at the end of the evening.............
  12. HPW, Rule of thumb you don't have constitutions in monarchy's, you have them in republics. If there are kings and queens going back 100's of years, and all that divine right rubbish, then any rights the serfs got was either ransomed for or not worth fighting about and so given freely. In a republic normally, at the start, there is a Constitution written which has some semblance of democracy built into it. (Given the time period!) As far as I know a monarchy with a constitution is a constitutional monarch and only has powers decreed by something like a parliament. They are just figureheads and have no bearing on how the country is run.
  13. No........thanks ex-B. Luckilly his partner and the kids were not there. Son went back into the source of the fire to get his dog out! Round of applause please!
  14. Yes Maggs you will miss quite a bit staying in the Lion this year!
  15. Sorry people not my last post............the Last Post. http://www.newspostleader.co.uk/news/local/town-will-host-tribute-to-last-post-for-ww1-1-6945480?utm_medium=twitter&utm_source=twitterfeed
  16. I wouldn't wish that on anyone GGG! I know several who look to need help getting dressed every morning...........back me or sack me Adam!
  17. GGG, you know as well as I do the only people who pay their due taxes are us mugs at the bottom of the pile! The Revenue shouldn't be cutting deals they should be collecting whats due off ANYONE!
  18. Untill pretty recently CAB's, well the two I know of, had rent/rate free premesis. Changes in associated public budgets did away with those pretty dammed important subsidies. Not sure if the manager/staff gets paid but just about everyone associated with CAB does it voluntarilly. These (CABs) should be funded because they are normally the first line of defence against a totalitarian system of local/national government.
  19. Great stuff Toffo, bring your neighbours too.........starts 4.00pm I think? Activities on in most of the 'closed' shops all week. Even the mighty Tesco have given us the use of the old Indian Restaurant, downstairs and upstairs! Plenty stuff going on there and also at the old Gas Shop, many thanks to the owners there too! Nearly had the old shoe shop but its got tenants going in. Just trying to make Bedlington Front Street at least seem busy in the run up to Xmas!
  20. No, son Sym.............. Yes I saw GGGG up the ladders setting that camera up. If we could get one on top of the half built care home it would provide a panorama of Christmas light switch on fun and delights for ex pats...and Sym!
  21. No it isn't Sym..........? Crammers is across the river.
  22. Turned out in force to my son's house fire this morning GGG. And my D-In-L works for them so great guys! (and women!)
  23. Not in the least GGG I am saying lets tackle the two faced Bxxxxxxxs who make the laws and associated loopholes!
  24. I'M SAYING STOP PICKING ON THE EASY TARGETS TONY! Its nickle and dime stuff lets prosecute for example for a change. Starting with the PM or probably the leader of any Footsie 100 company!
