The Arcade
Fraid not! The adress is clearly stated as Bedlington. 1938 isn't so long ago. There may be somebody who remembers it.

The Arcade
Does anybody know where 'The Arcade, Glebe Road, Bedlington' was located? It appears on a document from 1938.

Grade 11 listed in West Bedlington
That would be great! I'm particularly interested in the Hedley gravestone - my mother's side of the family.

Of course you can never predict how many are going to turn up. They are not going to book a table when they've got 'the staff' so well trained.

Brexit : Why TTIP matters
Surely it must depend on which coin it is - one euro or one pound! There is also a chance that their pockets are empty if they're sitting in the club all day. (Saving the red ink for Christmas).

I'm impressed too! The best mine can do is knock on the window when she want's to be let in. I would think that was a sign of intelligence if she didn't have a cat flap.

Let's keep this out of the sandpit guys. It's not becoming of either of you.

Coal Mining
Here's another question for our coal-mining experts. On his death certificate in 1963, the occupation of a deceased mining relative is stated as "Datal Worker (below) Coal Mining".Does anybody know what is meant by 'Datal Worker?

Brexit : Why TTIP matters
Sorry Webtrekker! it wasn't a comment on the content, more on the presentation of it. I did in fact watch the video (how else would I know that he was telling us about secrecy)? Until I watched that video I thought TTIP was something PG put into small packets for me to pour boiling water on.

How can he/she talk about things being done in secrecy while wearing a mask himself?

I don't know about anybody else but I personally think that Eggy is well worth a round of applause for all the fantastic work he's doing with these photos! Get your hands together!

Wow! I'm impressed that we have so many. A few photos of the gravestones would be appreciated if anybody has the time.

The Queens Speech
I think you guys are missing the most important point. Does it matter if GPS is being used or not? Does it matter if idiots are sitting on motorway bridges with spoofers? Does it matter if these cars are using the same spatial clues as humans? NO!! What matters is where they place the make-up mirror and the mug holder!

The Queens Speech
Well, to be fair, he didn't say that the spoofer (lovely word that) was being used only that he was sitting on a motorway bridge with it. When webtrekker challenged me to imagine the carnage that might be caused I imagined it flying through the air like a brick. That's my story and I'm sticking to it.
