Agreed mercuryg. These young people are the future. The old guard need to take notice and connect. Apart from certain individuals on this site there seems a lack of involvement by the political elite of Bedlington. Locally and nationally where are these people who should be fighting for our town. By their silence on issues they say so much.

Anyone not there on Saturday will be noticed by there absence . The demonstration is none political but it is very much a statement. The 'elephant in the room' is simply 'WHY!'

I wonder what happened to this club.

Ah but do the cures work. I am not prepared to try any!

Health and safety or History. Who would win?

How about the Last Ship by Sting for all of them.

Note to self Must watch Fred Dibnah.

There is a Geordie boy on at the Sage tonight Actuay more than one but you need to take out a mortgage to buy the tickets. Geordie girls too! Last chance maybe!

Lots of coverage on the news today.

I agree but why would the holes be left. It was suggested they would be grand places for birds to nest ! Maybe they would be sealed with wood or stone. This church is said to be about 9 degrees off the East /West line. It seems it maybe on a pagan site. Anyone got a compass to check out Saint Cuthbert's.

Possibly but the church has no roof or door.

Well it appeared and now is gone. I signed out and Ukip appeared. Not sure why!

Well done the advert made it onto the site. 'Make a Noise for Bedlington'

Social Media are making people more aware of the issues. No longer do people vote because of who they are and how their parents voted. Indoctrination takes many many forms. The BBC and Newspapers are just two examples. Even on this site there seems often to be only one overstated viewpoint. People have every right to be enthusiastic about the way forward but the electorate equally have the right to choose. We call it democracy and hopefully we all get the decisions right. My fear is we do not learn and end up with a divided society. Basically We are better together fighting for what we see is right and fair. Maybe not agreeing but still prepared to work together.

No Adam it is a church. No one truly knows what the holes are there for.

Maybe maybe not!

Anglo /Saxon building techniques. Why the holes?

Would this fit in the modern house.

The folk awards are tomorrow night on Radio 2.

The BBC do not have the monopoly on biased viewpoints. Surely we all have the ability to decide for ourselves what we believe and what we do not. The petition may represent the true position but is more likely just another viewpoint.. Who wrote it and why? Can they claim to be without bias?

This is an interesting time in politics. Things appear to be changing, who knows what will happen. My wish would be to see a great turnout, with people young and old getting politicians to sit up and take notice. Our young people will change things if they get involved. While our local councils have less power everyone talks about more power locally. Devolved or independent. Have the boundaries changed in Wansbeck since 1997. The figures are very interesting rosco.

Next Monday 7:30 Coffin Chapel. The Bedlington History Society. The Bondagers. Dinah Iredale. A unique look at our past.

Of course Malcolm.

It has to be :- Show of Hands and Ignorance Arrogance and Greed.

The BBC has my vote, for what it is worth.
