Alan Edgar (Eggy1948)

Rigger - I don't know if I can find anything else out ab out the McGlen family but I knew the name and especially Beatty Road. My granny lived there and had a very close friend, Mrs McGlen. This is my Granny, Mary Henderson, with her sister in lae, Elsie Humble (Elenbel Ave), mys sister Anne and Mrs McGlen. The photo will be from c1957 :-

From a posting you know well Rigger - now with all the names :-

Ovalteeny - the lad you have named as R. Anderton is that not Austin Anderton? Lived Waverley Avenue, a couple of doors from the cut through to Victoria Terrace.

So where was @Ovalteeny when this one was taken?

I knew John, a year older than me, lived in Hirst Villas, Bedlington but attended Monkseaton Grammar. that as far as I can remember were just as keen to encourage spots as academic studies. I've just seen the photo of the Cambois team on the sixtownshisp site - Ok if I share it with the Cambois & Bedlington remembered groups? John isn't a member on Facebook but his partner, Marg Colclough, posted this 'hazy' photo of the 1957 Bedlington Station Primary School team on the Sixtownships site :-

Now I understand

Don't think the NCC site is crap. Surely it's mobiles that aren't any good for viewing planning diagrams, on any site. Even on my 19" Desktop PC screen when you select the option on the NCC site to fit the architects drawing to your screen you can't read the details unless you select the option to 'zoom in'. My mobile screen is 2" x 1.5". - and doesn't connect to the www. This is the proposed site layout document 14.73" x 10.43", without zooming in, on the PC. And then even this site shrinks the image when it loads it up!

It's the closest, on this site, I have found for 'Peace man' but I it's just intended to be 'Punk'. Hover your mouse (or whatever ) over the emoji and the meaning is displayed.

I agree but with a young adult that wouldn't always accept experience; pointers, help; rational arguments etc I could go into the garden and just nip out the head of a plant and encourage it to grow the way you wanted to, without a debate. Now that was therapy and it saved me on many an occasion from removing the head from the young adult

Iv'e got them in my garden but can never remember the name - I rely on Simon. The roots of the Red Valerian look more like tubers, or as I call them small white carrots.

He spends a lot of his time in the countryside Steve and attempts to identify everything he finds. Normally that's because he wants to know if he can eat it or brew anything from it!

@Canny lass - similar to Sedum @Steve Turnbull but according to our Simon, and the RHGS, it's Red Valerian
