    Malcolm - searching through History Hollow, for info on Netherton Colliery, I noticed this old posting of yours. Did you get the 4 photos identified ? Have you still got them and any chance of posting them separately so I can get a better view? Eggy

    I would say - Smack in the middle of the existing roundabout with all the info - Merc lecterns - at every entrance and exist off the roundabout and outside the Red Lion. This is a 'non-artists' impression of the possible sites:-

    Damian - between Robert Morland & Bryan Cole, on the sixtownships site, they named him as Alan Stappard (but always called Harry!) - and had a comment :- recognised him and the bike but that would be over 40 years ago and wasn't,t really sure . He was an electrician at netherton and sadly was killed there a nice lad and motorbike daft .

    Thanks Damian - let you know if there is any reaction to the posting.

    He will have to wait in line behind - Pugh, Pugh, Barney McGrew, Cuthbert, Dibble, Grub. Here is the clock, the Trumpton clock. Telling the time, steadily, sensibly; never too quickly, never too slowly. Telling the time for Trumpton.

    Brilliant - hard to work out what those two main characters grew up to be - dog handlers or car body repair technicians! Damian - I would assume you have no objection in the link to this video on your Youtube page being shared. There are a few ex Netherton residents on the Facebook groups - Bygone Bedlington & Bedlington Remembered that often ask if anyone has any old photos of colliery streets especially Plessey Street. What streets are they in the video? Eggy.

This image is of a 2 story row of houses, whereas the first image suggests a row of cottage style with the 2nd floor in the loft space.

    Q. What happens when Donald Trump takes Viagra? A. He grows taller. News Headline :- An earthquake with a strength of 8.1 on the Richter scale hit the Middle East. Two million Muslims died and 1 million were injured. President Trump, wanting to help as much as possible, is sending back 2 million replacement Muslims.
