Warren Clark
Have you ever thought about becoming a Stand up comedian Symptoms. You could give John Shuttleworth a run for his money.

Saint Cuthbert And Bedlington Church
For any History you have to ask who wrote it and look for any primary sources! Everyone in this case can be right! Basically think about a Bedlington Council Meeting and any minutes need to be understood in light of which side your on. Unless you have a recording that has not been tampered with.

The City Hall Newcastle
The whole CD/LP of Moondance is great but for us it has to be Astral Weeks. Wavelength is another favourite. The record he did with the Chieftains is another regularly played. He teamed up with Brian Kennedy in later years which was worth a listen. Really could not pick out an all time favourite. On one occasion we saw him and he got irritated that someone shouted for 'Brown Eyed Girl' Next time it was on his play list.

Latest survey
I think HMRC is underfunded like most government departments. Less and less employees do more and more work it seems! There is an argument under 'Quantative Easing' for putting the money in a helicopter and throwing it out to stimulate the economy. Instead of that employ people! Start with bus conductors and solve traffic congestion. Well not entirely! In the past there were so many more local jobs and people supported the local economy.

Pre-Christian Burial
There could well be a burial under the old school. Digging down to road level. Forget the land banking. Compulsory purchase order. Let's get to the bottom of it all!

Talk of the Town
Topics of General Interest:- I have taken the title literally. Basically anything that would interest someone in Bedlington. Something to chat/ talk about in the town. (Pub, Church or outside Tesco's ) Something you would not want showing up on a search engine maybe.

His style and presentation are great. The music is equally good and yes he can sing. Seem to remember he even used a Renault 4 on on LP
