Alan Edgar (Eggy1948)

@James & @HIGH PIT WILMA asked about the DVD on the Bygone Bedlington FB group and 'It's Shep' (Dave Shepard -lived in Burnside in the 1950's & 60's when I knew him)- send me a message :- ' Just seen your post about the DVD of bedlington Remembered. I bought it and it is only photos and voice over of what you can see in most facebook media. whether it is worth the cost ( i don't remember what i paid) but only worth if someone wants a memory "keepsake" Alan.' I haven't heard anything back from John Dawson

and that @Canny lass is just about word for word what would have been my next comment. Great minds think alike - and where not the same gender

@James & @HIGH PIT WILMA message back from John Dawson = '....im not aware of any but i will phone and find out for you. let you know when they respond..............' 🤞but not looking too good

Now isn't it strange that even the BBC news mentioned that there were no white males. Many in this world has spent years protesting that women and blacks should be on an equal footing as the white male. I would even say , in my opinion, the BBC that broadcasts all over the world have been attempting to have black, white and women on the same level as the white male. I was amazed that when they were broadcasting from outside 10 Downing Street when watching to see who Liz brought into the cabinet Nick Eardley ( the Stanley Baxter look alike ) stated that there were no white males. Does this mean that the tables are now reversed and the white males can now start claiming they are being discriminated against. and can start protest meetings and marches asking for equality? Will we ever get the point where no matter what sex or colour, no matter what the balance is, everyone will treat everyone else as equal and just get on with it

I'll check with @johndawsonjune1955 via the Past Times History group and see if there are still copies available.

Bill @Alan dickson - often posts photos, from when he is out with his dog, of the wood on the Bygone Bedlington group :-

Hope you and the family fully enjoy your visit. You might meet up with @John Fox (foxy) - @Andy Millne or @Malcolm Robinson if you visit the Red Lion.

@James - forgot to ask - do you use the 'Messages' service on this site? Although John Dawson doesn't post any comments on this group these days I know he does occasionally use the Messages service - he has contacted me via it a few weeks ago.

@James - John had two groups. One on Facebook that changed the name from Six Townships group to the Past Times History group and John is Admin of that group. The other group where john produced videos and booklets etc of the local Six Townships was kept going but checking now I am like you, can't find it. Are you on Facebook? If not I can contact @johndawsonjune1955 for you, via Facebook messenger, and see if there are still copies of the DVD available.

In agree with you - at least with Boris you got a laugh. Can you imagine having to listen to Liz Truss, probably nightly, on the evening news. Back in the 1960's & 70's I voted for Labour as that is who everyone I knew voted for and the party I had been indoctrinated with and I preferred the Harold Wilson character to the Ted Heath character. Following those years there was no way I could even speak the name of that chemist born to a green grocer yet alone vote for her. naturally from 1990 i would vote for anyone to replace the chemist but didn't really care who it was. Over the last twenty years my votes, normally for three candidates, in the local council elections would be one labour, one Conservative and one from the Green party. I could never bring myself to vote for the Lib Dem candidate - just couldn't see the point of them. These days I wish Al Murray would come and be in the NE elections - I would vote for him = The Pub Landlord standing against all the established political parties as the sole candidate for his Free United Kingdom Party (FUKP).

Cheers @James - so my attempts - A,B,C,D & E - to identify where the pit heap was were all wrong.
