Jr6468 Tommy Cullen was working as a store man at G T Culpitts the cake decoration factory in Ashington in the 80s but he left there & went south he had 2 sisters one married Eddie Mount the builder the younger one always drank in the Bedlington terrier 7 days a week I believe he was married & had a few kids

I actually lived in number 18 millbank place & everybody in the street classed the first 6 houses as millbank road lol funny worldl

Hi canny lass you are right & wrong let me try & explain as Millbank Rd ends Millbank place starts the first 6 houses are on the same street as Millbank Road even though it's actually millbank place hope I'm making sense

Sorry canny lass didn't mean to offend but actually the entrance to Knox Road is Beatty road & millbank place as I said accept my apologies

A friend of mine was Called Alan Knox he worked at dhs Bedlington went to grammar school he's sister was called Jacquline Knox also went to the grammar school there father built the houses that's why it was called Knox rd & he picked he's house definitely 1960s not 80s

Not 1980s definitely not true

Knox road was there in the 1960s 100% sure

I don't know what Knox road has to do with millbank terrace tomorrow I will give you a list off names who lived in the 1960s who lived in millbank place the guy who built Knox road lived there more to follow millbank terrace long way from Knox road

lilibil15 I was joking Fred West was a a bad man from West Country & they pulled he's house down that's why he's house doesn't exist

I lived in millbank place but at 25 millbank crescent did Fred West live there just a joke 😂

Just reminds me what Bedlington was like on a Saturday night 😜👍🏻

Why is everyone in the eu slating him, he's just telling the truth people haven't been reading he's bill properly which was passed in the Hungarian parliament by a majority I think what he says is the truth & lots of people just get on the bandwagon

Hi Alan definitely early 70s to mid 70s I was paper lad there from 73 to 75 & they were always heavy on Saturday morning & Thursday evening when you got the blyth news which wasn't free then I believe it's free now

Hi CL yeah he was a nice guy joe, when I left school I went to merchant navy aswell on the start of my adventures in life when I was on leave always had a chat with him in there cafe if he was on leave really nice guy I think tommy bought the place off Clarence Cooper if I remember right.But not sure

I'm curious to know what happened to these people, Gordon Adamson had the papershop near the Northumberland arms pub. It was the only place that sold Bedlington terrier souvenir plates cups etc, I used to work for him as a paper boy in the mid seventies my round was the hollymount round £1.80 for the morning round 60p for the evening round new what every house got delivered without looking at my list lol. Tommy miller ran bingo hall opposite the black bull pub he's wife was called violent I think, he had a son called Joesph he went into the merchant navy as a radio officer.As I say just wandering what happened to them & there businesses

Hi Vic sorry to hear of your loss for you & your family

Another one remember going for walks with my mum or dad,it seemed like miles looking back now it wasn't. But I remember saying how long to go now? "Just around the corner they replied." Long bloody corners lol

I remember been told by other kids not to go in the farmers field or he'll shoot you, I actually believed this for years happy days

Hi Alan don't think anybody could understand Marc Bolans lyrics none of it made sense really but he's music was good at the time. I think everybody had different interpretations of what he's lyrics were about,God knows!! I do love this forum how it's changed from Chinese takaways in Bedlington to T.Rex 😂Hope symptoms doesn't come to this discussion with roast potatoes 🥔 in oil or council Robinson questioning my excessive use of full stops .........
