Horrible Histories on the Scottish question worth a look. I think it featured on the One Show. Will politics ever be the same again.

No way Keith! Seems to me that someone will die with the ice bucket challenge. My comment in no way was meant to encourage the basic principle. I am sure you were just joking!

Maybe lowering the tone but I believe Mark Knopfler played Local Hero. Surely one of the all time great films.

Ghost Stories or Scary Individuals. It was always the Boggy Man in the past HPW.

Great film. Very nostalgic, Bedlington's Golden Years.

Sorry I missed the day Malcolm. All our best wishes for a good year, for you and yours. Gan Canny.

Surely the local answer should be 'haddaway and sh--e ' Why oh why are people doing this challenge ! Maybe in a hot country!

I believe they moved the nail at some stage. New mortar and no buildings maybe a clue.

1987/88 History Society Bedlington Library.

Westridge and the old police station seen from the opencast track at the back of Westlea

Cambois and the river Wansbeck as it reaches the sea.

The weir on the Wansbeck looking towards Cambois.

Gallagher Park, spot which town is missing from the map in the middle. Ok the clue is you are already there! Maybe the plan is to stop you leaving!

Just one view of the 'Green Spaces around Bedlington' 2014 before the planners arrive in force!

Bedlington in Bloom. The Cemetery Entrance and the Westend First School.

Westridge now August 2014

Under the Stakeford Bridge

Bullshit even if the computer wants another word!!

Power corrupts maybe? Stalin, Hitler, Thatcher, Union leaders etc We are all on the side of humanity. We have to respect the views of others even if we know they are wrong and we are right. Subjective viewpoint not objective! Once in a position of power people can start to believe their own bushit

Monday night cannot remember many fights .

Even place to live

We walked from Plessey woods to Stannington the other day Fantastic , well signposted,lots of people enjoying the space. We did have a problem crossing the dual carriageway but the walk and riverside views were / are second to none . Then there is the viaduct. Railway history brilliant . Bedlington is a good lace to live

It seems they are filming at Alnwick till the 8th August for the fifth series

From the grapevine it seems we are to get many wrap around building projects in Bedlington. Near the golf course to Hartford Hall. To the west we are to become one with the village. The development plan is not working it seems. Housing at a rate of 60 per year with building to the North of Bedlington is now forgotten ! The money motive is King. NCC were to be at the meeting but it seems did not turn up. Maybe fear . Feelings it seems are running high . Rural life here is about to change forever. Our town is not the only place to be targeted.

Walking through our award winning Plessey Woods wrapped in history is a wonderful walk. Railway history bridge then bus to Morpeth. Where, I wonder do the buses stop now?
