  1. Our Mums old houses are great for memories. Mine brought to life a bride doll that I was not at all grateful for in the past and stands as a testament to remind me of her love
  2. She was a favourite of John Peel. She looks like a school teacher.
  3. Has Malcolm been abducted on the item he unveiled. Not a magic carpet or a stairway to heaven.
  4. She is on tonight at The Little Theatre Saltwell Park Gateshead. Off to try and get tickets. Have not been to this venue before.
  5. They had him with Frank Sidebottom in the film Wonky. (Playing at the Leadmill .) The Tyneside had John Otway film and questions the other week. Seems he turned up 'Pi----d' John Cooper Clarke was a really funny and unassuming individual . He came across really well. We have followed him since the 70s.
  6. Crikey these medical people should carry a health warning. 'Taking the recommended dose could seriously damage your Health' Hope your well soon Wonky and do not need any medication.
  7. She looked a right 'Clip'. Where did that come from?
  8. Look up the Happy Cats Travelling Sessions at Charlton's Cambois. Research has them with such a loyal following that people get a bus from Bedlington to see them. They are so good people dance on tables. One of my favourite tracks of all time is Heart of Saturday Night Tom Waits. It seems that is one of the songs they sing! Must get to see them. They have played Sour Grapes in Morpeth. Amazing I have only just heard about them. Obviously mixing with the wrong sort!
  9. Excellent Malcolm. A simple idea that is both useful and a brilliant advert for Bedlington. The perfect weather for your unveiling. Hope to see them multiply!
  10. Brilliant film. Edinburgh looks great The proclaimers music is a bonus. It seems locally there is a group called The Happy Cats who do there music and more.
  11. The Tyneside cinema hosted a film and then questions with the man himself. The great thing is it was here in Newcastle and networked live to other venues. If you have never heard of him. I recommend 'I Wanna be Yours' for starters. Then Chicken Town and Beasley Street. They even talk of him being a National Treasure. The Article Monkeys are fans!
  12. At least you have not lost your sense of humour!
  13. The Bedlington History Society on Monday featured the Battle of Flodden and the background to the event by a guy called Chris Burgess. He was an excellent speaker and it was a talk everyone with any interest in history should have attended. Sorry, due to a technical hitch I could not mention it sooner.
  14. As I remember telegraph poles and old pianos all helped the bonfire pile. Picture frames to keep the fire going in emergencies when your potatoes were not quite ready. I still have fire starter tendencies, now it is all about renewable energy. Annoying the neighbours can be a problem.
  15. They wittered about IOS 7 02 but solved the problem by claiming it was something to do with an insecure site and a cookie issue. They tried the two app versions in the phone and something clicked. Either way back to normal on 3G. Fascinating but irritating. Keep thinking about Fawlty Towers and hitting a car with a twig because it does not work!
  16. My education is lacking here Brian. Tell us more about the leagues and the play offs. Who should we support, from a distance.
  17. I have not posted for a while due to technical hitches. Maybe we should have a section for illness, death or other. Pete maybe just sick of us all. Homesick or sick of home.
  18. Maybe we could write our very own equivalent booklet. 'The Sayings of The Bedlington Forum'

    Ios 7

    Anyone experiencing problems. 3G does not see to work. Apologies to the real 3G! This picture is just for light relief, and just because I can.
  20. Your a poet Malcolm and I guess you do know it! At Westridge I learnt the poem William the Conqueror 1066 Said to his captains, I mean to a fix, England to Normandy go out and borrow Some bows and some arrows we're starting tomorrow.. This is where he landed
  21. Waitrose, let's go up market.
