  6. Morning Vic. Yes I blame Trump for all the hot air that flows up North every time he opens his mouth😁. My wife would quite happily move fro the NE to the South coast of the UK - I want to say in the NE where it is 10+ degrees cooler. The kids were here yesterday wearing shorts and T-shirts but when the wife popped out to see one daughter just a 150 yards away from us she had her jacket on and said she wwas cold 😱. We have one grandson who joined the Fire Service two years ago and he says the North are sendiing a couple of teams down South to help out with the wild fires and there are plenty of warnings around the NE but nothing serious happening.🤞 The BBC news have reported on Trump and his 'smoke tarrif' threat on Canada, followed by Mark Carney speach telling him Canada is doing it's best. Although the UK is cooler the the mediteranian countries the BBC have still reported that down South in the UK they will be having their fith heat waive of the year. Hopefully next year thousands of Brits may saty at home for their summer holidays - but then the travel industry will complain they don't have enought business ansd start laying staff off and upping their prices. I enjoyed gowing up in the 50s & 60's and playing outside, every day, in what ever weather. All the best Vic.
  7. @Vic Patterson are the forest fires getting close to Grande Cache?
  8. There appears to be vhave been various identity bracelets with different abbreviations. These are two that were posted on the Ashington FB group :-
  9. There is one that Evan Martin identified in one of his books :-
  10. @HIGH PIT WILMA - I was looking to see if you were one of the characters in the catoon drawings @Damian Robson posted😁
  11. @Pegwoman - forgot to say - I have no idea what the letters 7 numbers at the bottom would stand for. Not sure what the first leteer is - ?. F.S.B. 376.
  12. @Pegwoman I don't know anyone who has one but I have seen similar discussed on the Ashington Memories Facebook group. There were a few suggestions but most of the comments, by grandchildren, of those who had them seem to think that theywere worn by many in the areas where the coal mines were during WWII as the workers and family in the mining areas as those areas were likely to be targeted by the enemy. The most detailed attempt to guess was One comment suggested that the Woodhorn Museum might have the answer -
  13. Checked on the Facebook Group Bygone Bedlington and the only info I can get is that the photo is pre 1970 :-
  14. No date with the photo. Normally I have the info ie year and who posted it as part of the name the photo is saved under. So in this case I would assume the member of the group I got if from did not comment with any info other than the name.😒
