  9. Have these been on before.......... just been sent them by a Cornishman! A Primary Teacher explains to her class that she is a Liverpool fan. She asks her students to raise their hands if they too are Liverpool fans. Everyone in the class raises their hand except one little girl. The teacher looks at the girl with surprise and says, 'Mary, why didn't you raise your hand?' 'Because I'm not a Liverpool fan,' she replied. The teacher, still shocked, asked, 'Well, if you are not a Liverpool fan, then who are you a fan of?' 'I am a Newcastle United fan, and proud of it,' Mary replied. The teacher could not believe her ears. 'Mary, why, pray tell, why are you a Newcastle United fan?' 'Because my mum is a Newcastle United fan, and my dad is a Newcastle United fan, so I'm a Newcastle United fan too!' 'Well,' said the teacher in an obviously annoyed tone, 'that is no reason for you to be a Newcastle United fan. You don't have to be just like your parents all of the time... What if your mum was a prostitute and your dad was a drug addict, what would you be then?' 'Then,' Mary smiled, 'I'd be a Liverpool fan. An Australian, an Irishman and a Geordie are in a bar. They're staring at another man sitting on his own at a table in the corner. He's so familiar, and not recognising him is driving them mad. They stare and stare, until suddenly the Irishman twigs: 'My God, it's Jesus!' Sure enough, it is Jesus, nursing a pint. Thrilled, they send him over a pint of Guinness, a pint of Fosters and a bottle of Brown. Jesus accepts the drinks, smiles over at the three men, and drinks the pints slowly, one after another. After he's finished the drinks, Jesus approaches the trio. He reaches for the hand of the Irishman and shakes it, thanking him for the Guinness. When he lets go, the Irishman gives a cry of amazement: 'My God! The arthritis I've had for 30 years is gone.It's a miracle!' Jesus then shakes the Aussie's hand, thanking him for the lager. As he lets go, the man's eyes widen in shock. 'Strewth mate, the bad back I've had all my life is completely gone! It's A Miracle.' Jesus then approaches the Geordie who says, 'Back off, mate, I'm on disability benefit. A Geordie walked into the local job centre, marched straight up to the counter and said 'Hi, I'm looking for a job'. The man behind the counter replied 'Your timing is amazing. We've just got one in from a very wealthy man who wants a chauffeur/bodyguard for his nymphomaniac twin daughters. You'll have to drive around in a big black Mercedes and wear the uniform provided. The hours are a bit long but the meals are provided. You also have to escort the young ladies on their Overseas holidays. The Salary package is £200,000 a year'. The Geordie said 'You're bullsh*tting me!' The man behind the counter said 'Well you started it!' Police cordoned off Newcastle City Centre this morning when a suspicious object was discovered in a car. It later turned out to be a Tax Disc.

  14. We took my gravely ill father in law to the commemorative service at Morpeth a few years ago. My wife attends all of them now. Some inspirational women of today talking at these services!
  15. In the News Post Leader 'All out yesterdays' section recently they reported plans by BUDC to build a shopping centre, hotel and leisure centre. That was 1962. In the early 70's I know there was project put forward to build a shopping centre on what has come to be known as the Gap Site. I have seen the plans! In the 90's I know there was a project put forward to build a walkthrough shopping centre on the Gap Site again. First two were stuffed by WDC, the last by NCC and the Health Authority. Seems Bedlington has always been well served by local authorities!
  16. Never mind that what about a new Caledonia?
  17. With thanks to Janet and her team at Ashington............. "Ashington Community Development Trust has opened a new retail unit on the ground floor of the Central Arcade, next to the Nisa supermarket. We chose the name "The Deputy's Kist” for this retail outlet because it acknowledges the history and tradition of the Town and reflects the treasure trove of products and services available. For those of our readers who may not be familiar with the word "kist”, the origin can been traced back to 1300 and the Middle English "kiste”, which is derived from the Old Norse, 'kista' (chest). More recently, "kist” has been used to describe a store of money or treasure, e.g. a kist of silver (1816). The word "kist” is still in use today, as a descriptive term for the mine deputy's work station or desk, where he would keep tools and papers."
  18. Not picking up grass cuttings can't help neither!
