    Ok - I just assumed it was under your control and you would want to know. I'm not after any gadgets - just clarting

    @Andy Millne - @threegee - I was looking at the 'Discussion' page and this link was displayed. I gave it a 'click' but it didn't get me onto any site. The address it passed to Google was :- https://googleads.g.doubleclick.net/pagead/amzn.to/2hQQNeA

    @Marie Sillars - can't even find the photo on the sixtowships site

    @Marie Sillars - can't tell you who they are Marie. If you select the johndawsonjune1955 tag, next to his posting/comment, you will see his profile and see it was April 2015when John last logged into the site. John runs a Facebook site - the sixtownships history group as well as a sister group, Coal Mining Memories UK where I think he will also have posted this photo. I will see if I can find it on the sixtownships site and see if anyone in the photo has been named.

    @Symptoms - a Janice Robinson on the Bygone Bedlington Facebook group has just posted the comment - No 21 is Stephen Donald. What do you think?

    How man parents will have seen that look on a child's face and worked out immediately that they were full of something, therefore a PM candidate.

    Would this, Real Ales and dog friendly, be real competition for JD Wetherspoon - The Red Lion? Is the Red Lion dog friendly?

    @Canny lass - from the names you have given I do remember bringing up the fact that my sister-in-law, Betty Hall, was identified by you in one of the class photos. I can't find any photo with Betty named on it so it must have been this one. I could either say a) it was my memory that had failed and I hadn't totally forgot to do anything with the photo or b ) we were in that transitional period on this site when I was having numerous fails attempting to load photos and when Andy sorted out the problems my memory had still failed to remember what I had been doing! So while everything, including my short term memory, is working your list of names added to the photo

    Numbers added and I haven't attempted to guess a name - all yours. I have a copy prepared to enter the names on.

    Aren't 'opportunities' wonderful - cheers Andy.

    Couldn't believe it when that document turned up!! There's a similar roundabout on the outskirts of Seaton Delaval
  18. Alan Edgar (Eggy1948)
    If only I had just said - yes, the bricked area is there to be used. Instead I wondered, is there info in the highway code or anywhere else that a simple Google search will reveal? Oh to be a Technical author! I believe the simple explanation is something like :- a single lane road that requires a roundabout to allow access to and from the road may require an additional lane, only on the roundabout, that allows large vehicles additional space (another lane) to turn on and off the single lane road. But if you really want to impress your fellow Friday night ale tasters with a full explanation of the Geometric Design of Roundabouts then read the 51 pages in this documnet :- http://www.standardsforhighways.co.uk/ha/standards/dmrb/vol6/section2/td1607.pdf

    Contemplated doing that then thought why try and work it out, and possibly advise non members incorrectly, when admin could tell me what was built into the system and non members could see how efficient, and exact, the admin of this community site are. That's why
