  1. Thanks @Richard Allan - I'm no historian, but I do help with a Facebook group site of Bedlington and there are often questions asked about the Glebe Road properties - this info will come in handy I'm not saying there is any new info that you might find but have you used the 'Search' facility on this site to find any postings on the Glebe Row & Road? When you say "..... I was interested to see a picture of the Alma Inn on your site........" does that mean you found the picture?
  2. I did ask her to CL but she hasn't found the time to do it, yet perhaps after she has finished making a fresh batch of soup, for freezing, and the prepared and served lunch she might just have time before she washes up and settles down, before supper Looking forward to xmas, she might just get some time saving device that has a ginger snap alarm fitted!
  3. Still waiting for me ginger snaps
  4. I checked with the vets this morning and the dog has now been taken into care by the council Dog Warden so anyone looking for the dog, according to the vets receptionist, would have to contact Morpeth Town Hall. There is a number on-line but don't know if it is current :-Northumberland County Council - Dog Warden - 01670 627000.
  5. Wor lass thinks +18c is cold - she keeps turning the heating up and over the recommend level, 21c, for OAPs !! Iv'e told her if she feels cold to stop lounging and dust vigorously to warm herself and the room up. It's getting late and I'm still waiting for me 10 o'clock with ginger snaps
  6. HPW - the dog was found at Boumarsund by Lindsay Davison and she took the photo, posted it on Facebook and took the dog to Robson and Prescott Veterinary Surgeons - 38 Staithes Ln, Morpeth NE61 1TD - 01670 512275. just tried ringing them to see if it is still with them but could only get a message that they were extremely busy and I gave up. Checked on Facebook and the posting had been updated yesterday to say the dog was still with the vets
  7. Marilyn & Bob Muter, off the Barrington, Barnt' n memories and stuff!! Facebook group have posted a full photo, that has not been flipped, and the names from the flipped image have been added. Previously it was thought that the fancy dress event was for the Queen's coronation in 1953 but now as more of the kids, and their approximate ages, have been established this photo was c1949.
  8. @HIGH PIT WILMA - long shot, have you seen this one on your dog walks ?
  9. This year :- Parade starts 2:15pm for 2:30 service - info posted on the Bedlington Remembered Facebook group site by Heather Stoddard. I Googled - 'remembrance day parade Bedlington 2017' but no info relating to the service in Bedlington was returned. Images from previous years from Simon Williams & Maureen Graham :-
  10. This dog found at Boumarsund by Lindsay Davison. The dog is now with Robson and Prescott Veterinary Surgeons - 38 Staithes Ln, Morpeth NE61 1TD - 01670 512275
  11. @Peter Turner - do you know if the photo is Barrington, - Puddlers Row or somewhere else?
  12. @Peter Turner - the area that's green on the right hand side of the A1968 is what I would call Willow Bridge. Is that the name/area you have found? There is a Facebook group for Barrington and although the oldest members will be people born in the early 1940's there may be some info of use to you in your research but you would have to join the group to view the info and photos as it is a 'Closed group' :- https://www.facebook.com/groups/958444760904321/ = Barrington, Barnt' n memories and stuff!! The cover photo for the group shows a small allotment area between the Barrington rows of houses - I can't find a date or the origin of this photo (but I'm sure it is available, somewhere !) :-
  13. Nothing further posted by a neighbour on Facebook and if you use the link in Andy's original posting the planning application is still open but as you say nothing appears to have been decided since June

  17. I'm amazed Andy - no one on this site, has used a Bedlington bona fide plumber plumber that can be recommended!!!
  18. It's just me Malcolm, haven't seen any post on any of the Facebook or community site where someone said - I voted. I guessed they would have but just wanted to MAN4B
  19. It's just that I haven't seen one comment, on any of the sites I visited, from anyone that has voted John so I thought I would get pushy It's the land where the two pits connected to each other = Behind Rothesay Terrace up to Vulcan Place - don't think I have seen a photo showing the boundary of the park so this is where I think the boundary lines are :-
  20. That statement above - 'and Gallagher Park has only 14 nominations....... is not correct - should have said :- ...and Gallagher Park has 13 other parks nominated against it, CL & me have voted.
  21. @Malcolm Robinson - @Andy Millne - @threegee - @Bill Crosby are you 4 aware of this 'Vote' for the best park in the North East area?
