  1. Foxy has a photo, dated the 60's, of the old houses just before the Coffin Chapel, in the Gallery Album - Historic Bedlington / Days Gone Around the Town. It's on page 2, 3rd from the end. My dad, Adam Edgar, worked at Hugh Bolckows in the late 60's. You've got me scratching me head now, Albert Hooper - possibly an occasional pint in the Percy Arms?
  2. mais oui - nuits sans sommeil et des rêves humides.
  3. Another success, photo posted in Barrington County Primary School. I can only assume a fix has been applied and the world will be a better place - I'msinging and dancing in the rain - doo be do do, doobe doobe do do, doo be do do, doobe doobe do do, doo be do do, doobe doobe do do
  4. Google Chrome - no longer supported with Vista, but I'm sticking with it for the life of my PC, now 8 years old.
  5. Works Ok for me but I am still in the dark ages - Desktop PC - Windows Vista - and use mouse, dragging the cursor from start point to end point, to highlight areas of text where the existing font is to be changed or highlighted.
  6. Was that before or after the 'Coffin chapel' - this old postcard, Coffin chapel bottom right, was posted on one of the Bedlington Facebook sites and a comment was added saying the terraced row, that is now Brook Court, was Hirst Terrace
  7. Welcome Pauline - was it confusing at that end of Victoria Terrace - did you class your self as a Station lass; a TopEnd lass or even an Allgood Terrace lass?
  8. Uploaded and posted two photos in Bedlington Station 1st school album without any fails- the same two photos I have been attempting for the previous few days. need to find some more photos whilst the going is good! I would suspect that the system was reloaded/refreshed/restarted last night and the 'input areas' for uploading photos cleared out (or increased in size) allowing today's uploads to stored Ok. Off to find some more photos.
  9. mercuryg - Hollymount Hall, owned by the co-op in the 1950s - Ovalteeny used to live in it in the 50s
  10. Snap :- Great Britain's Adam Peaty qualified easily for Sunday's 100m breaststroke final having earlier broken his own world record. The 21-year-old qualified fastest in 57.62 seconds as he aims to become the first British male to win an individual Olympic swimming gold since 1988.
  11. This is true. I used to work in a team of blokes and we often encountered problems (opportunities really ), especially when installing upgraded software/firmware to ICL large systems. One lad in the team once said - 'you lot are always creating problems, but I never appear to'. That's right, we said - 'you never do any of the upgrades!' and that kept him quiet and he remained (mmm perhaps we should have voted for him to exit) in that state for ever. I've created a database for community software error codes with the intention of applying the solutions to the codes. I need to find a few more to make it worthwhile.
  12. This morning at 07:54 successfully loaded a photo - Westrridge c1950 Class ?? -, that has, on approx 10 attempts, failed to load over the past 4 days, into the album 'Westridge School - End of term class photos' In my euphoria, (and confirming computer was plugged in) I switched to the album - Bedlington Station 1st School - and attempted to upload 'Class 4 1959-50 Mrs Patterson' - with the result Error 1S111/1. Why does the sun go on shining? Why does the sea rush to shore? Don'y they know it's the end of the world cos the Gallery doesn't love me anymore! Why does my heart go on beating Why do these eyes of mine cry Don't they know it's the end of the world It ended when you said Error 1S111/1.
  13. Tried creating a new Album for 'Bedlington Station 1st School.' [full stop at end of name to make it unique], using a photo that had already been loaded into the existing 'Bedlington Station 1st School' :- Failed as above. Checked the photo properties of the photos I have been attempting to load and they have the same attributes as other photos on my system that have loaded into an album Ok. Attempted to upload a new photo, from the same folder on my system where I keep copies of photos already uploaded, into the existing Bedlington Station 1st school album and it failed as above. Copied the photo, that had just failed to upload, on to my Desktop and tried to upload into existing album - failed as above. Checked, checked, thumped my heed, checked again and couldn't find anything within my system that would possibly hint at why these attempte uploads were failing. Went back to the Bedlington site to sign out, approx 1 hour after having failed to load '1940s' photo into Bedlington Station 1st School album and the photo was there!! Attempted to upload a another photo, into the existing Bedlington Station 1st school album and back to Error Code IS111/1. I am not singing and dancing in the rain doo be do do, doobe doobe do do, doo be do do, doobe doobe do do, doo be do do, doobe doobe do do.
  14. I will never scream - doo be do do, doobe doobe do do, doo be do do, doobe doobe do do, doo be do do, doobe doobe do do. I remain a follower.
  15. could be you are accidentally, simultaneously, pressing the Ctrl + B keys - that is the equivalent to selecting the B in the top left corner of the input box. If that is the case then I would say you are aaal fingas and thums man, ya want ti sort yasel oot.
  16. Please I missed the Olympic opening ceremony and watched the opening of the 2016-17 English Football league show! NUFC team will never be charged for taking performance enhancing drugs but they might be held up on being dope-s. At least for 7 days now I can watch some athletes giving their best.
  17. July 2016 - In preparation for the dark nights to come Canny Lass bought a joke book. A little boy dresses up as a pirate for halloween. He has a bit of a speech impediment. The first house he goes to he says, "I'm a birate. This is my barrot. Can I have some bandy?" The woman looks at him and says, "My my aren't you cute. But where are your buccaneers?" The boy looks are her angrily and says "On the side of my buckin head you buckin dumass."
  18. A further test - I tried uploading into an album created another member - Carole - Netherton/Nedderton Old Photos - and saved that photo into the album, no problem. Back to Bedlington Station 1st School album and another attempt to post a photo - FAILED again with the Error code as before. Doh
