  1. Again............. http://www.fairfueluk.com/fairfueluk_advocacy.html
  2. I was being cynical Keef........
  3. Sorry Keith you will just have to cross your legs a bit longer!
  4. HPW, I suppose I was a Macam and then a Gadgey so Bedlington twang takes a bit more learning........still after 25 years!
  5. Is it just me or does anyone else look at that picture Keithy has just put up and wonder about how well the town has developed and prospered?
  6. Who mentioned Bepe...........
  7. Think he might have GGG...........http://www.theguardian.com/politics/2014/apr/18/nigel-farage-rejects-ukip-tie-french-front-national
  8. At this stage I can only say............WATCH THIS SPACE!!!!!!!!!!!
  9. Doglover, The toilets are locked because they are on Tesco property and NCC declared them as non-strategic. Tesco had promised to provide publicly assessable toilets within their new development but as we can see that ain't going to happen now so these toilets are just another casualty of this failed development. Something needs to be done because as far as I can see these ARE the most strategic public conveniences in the Town! (In this context 'strategic' means ones tourists or visitors might need.) They had just been revamped months before they were closed. Just another slap in the face for the Town but then there is quite a litany of similar smears!
  10. BTW HPW, I read the Bedlington section in that book you mentioned and I can't find a reference to 611AD? Might just be me mind and you can download a PDF from here......https://archive.org/details/ahistorynorthum01tynegoog
  11. HPW, Depending on the date of the internment the skull and cross bones could signify freemasonry or even a Templar connection. The image was appropriated by our nefarious seafaring ancestors off the Templars. There are one or two up in the Westlea cemetery.
  12. So Nigel spurned Marie's advances to go with De Gaul. Can't understand why he wouldn't want to be associated with National Front terminology! Meanwhile Geert has just targeted Dutch Moroccans for special treatment. Trouble with this far right stuff is that we end up in bunkers..........probably literally! (Just trying to break up the "Love Fest" GGG! )
  13. So is Nigel getting into bed with Wilders and Le Penn or what?
  14. I wasn't able to see it first hand but one of the staff told me there were 3 car booters there last Sunday? If its hoped to reinvigorate the store like that then might as well call it the CO OP!
  15. Interesting listening to all these whistleblowers coming out now to talk about how the CO OP has been run. No wonder its in trouble!
  16. "then vote UKIP, they are for manual workers..." No they aren't they think manual worker is a Spaniard!
  17. I know its not Bedders but when some places catch cold others get pneumonia! http://www.morpethherald.co.uk/news/business/local-business/traders-urged-to-dig-out-sponsors-for-town-events-1-6566838
  18. Its Tesco's land and the deal was the new store would have publicly accessible toilets. No new store no toilets! This toilet block had only just been refurbed shorty before it was closed. We will soon see the closed ones at Attlee Park demolished. Bit surprised at Tesco thinking a car boot on a Sunday would help them regain lost trade?
  19. A man and woman were married for many years. Whenever there was a confrontation, yelling could be heard deep into the night. The old man would shout, "When I die, I will dig my way up and out of the grave and come back and haunt you for the rest of your life!" Neighbors feared him. The old man liked the fact that he was feared. Then one evening, he died when he was 98. After the burial, her neighbors, concerned for her safety, asked, "Aren't you afraid that he may indeed be able to dig his way out of the grave and haunt you for the rest of your life?" (HERE IT COMES!!!) The wife said, " Let him dig. I had him buried upside down...and I know he won't ask for directions."
  20. No Brian, I presume not. The box of 4 is probably the size of one of your jumbo ones!
  21. But whats his connection with Bedlington Keith? And there is one!
  22. I think the interest rates charged should be in some way aligned to base rates. The ones I see are still 1000's of %s!
  23. 4 Whole quail for £5 I think at Aldi!
  24. Pity the days are gone when the instigators rode out front instead of hiding behind some desk! Amen to that Vic!
  25. Merc, I meant here, seems most of these companies are American owned.
