  1. Damn, you beat me to it!
  2. i got them on the main forum page, but not the sub-forums.
  3. i lost my dummy a long time ago, along with my sense of humour.
  4. Not the owner. and thats my point. At ANY time,that 1 person could just say 'enough' and close the site. And THAT is where the end say is. The fact they delegate this to others is neither here nor there, and you can kid yourself as much as you want. On a whim, bedlington.co.uk could be changed to anything. the forum could be removed and a notice simply saying 'tough!' could be put in its place. And that power is down to 1 person. The site owner. Therefore, in the big picture, its that person's ideals that are on display here. If people dont like it, tough. The choice has been put forward to allow 'most' things, and the site owner agreed. thats why its in place, and thats where it ends. Had this person not agree'd strongly enough, then that would not be the case now. regardless of how much debate went on.
  5. They still aint back for me
  6. ...All the doggies go? Did we not have terriers instead of file icons to dictate new posts?
  7. i use several of those, so choosing one would be unfair to the others.
  8. The library entrance... Bedlington Station.
  9. As long as they are 'voulenteers' then thats exactly my point. It actually lets alot more through than it should in my opinion! But again, thats my point. I think we're actually privileged to have this, as an official one wouldn't allow half the content. Its as good as the official site for the town. it just don't have the 'title'. As it stands, no-one has any real argument for any content thats removed. Thats the point i'm trying to get across. If people dont like it, they have 3 choices in my eyes. Stop VisitingMake Their Own site where their views can be airedPut up with it The very fact this thread remains is proof that "just about" anything goes, and that time will be taken to review things. I'm curious as to exactly what was removed now
  10. http://www.computerworld.com/s/article/9138395/Mozilla_plans_to_ribbonize_Firefox
  11. Apparently its breaking news... you heard it here first! Apparently they are copying office2009's "ribbon" toolbar, where you hover over a tab to reveal the options underneath... just wondered if there was any truth to it...
  12. i'll go 1987 porche 911 turbo
  13. got to be a '92 911 turbo! Will smiths car in Bad Boys! EDIT: i just looked at it full screen... scratch that!
  14. Not at all. just couldn't get it to sound right in written text. when i say it in the pub it sounds ok. I think we all know i aint got what it takes to be a mod here
  15. Well, it seems Mozilla and firefox are going the 'windows way'. Anyone heard about their ideas of creating a toolbar like Microsoft Office 2007?
  16. Live Bands. on public holidays.
  17. I crashed there once, and a police officer told me thats the only corner in bedlington with those chevrons....
  18. That pic may even be facing the coffin shaped chappel...
  19. Thats the corner just before coffin chappel, coming towards Vulcan place, just after brook court.
  20. Aint that the heartlands cottages? On the main road from the town center to the golf course, right hand side...
  21. Vector W8 1989 - 1992 ?
  22. Still, it was put up by an individual, and from what i read here, its an individual that disagreed with another's view on things. WDC put up a (crappy) website for the town, but tht will be the official one. This is nothing but someones project. The fact its open and everyone is allowed to have their say within reason is simply a rule this person has put forward. Should s/he disagree with whats being done, they will pull the plug. It was done once before, as i remember. Dont get me wrong, i love the idea of the site, and what it could be, and is in fact becoming (Slowly!). Its one of the reasons i keep coming back. But, what it all boils down too, is, someones name is above the door, and if something is done or said that s/he or his/her representatives (moderators) disagrees with, it will be removed. They may even discuss the post, even re-instating it, but the fact remains the final decision lies with one individual, and that individual is not officially a spokesperson of bedlington. My point being, its matterless if any of us disagree. This is a personal website with the facility for others to post comment. if those comments are removed, its really tough! the original poster has no right to have what they post published here. That decision lies in the hands of the site owner and his/her rep's. If this is not the case, and this site has some sort of official backing, i'd like to see it! Great work by the owner and mods, in my eyes. Just what the town needs, but there's nothing stopping someone opening Bedlington.net with the same setup and a completely differing set of rules. And as far as i can see, that site would be just as 'official'. Am i wrong?
  23. is that Netherton Lane? Approx Number 12 if memory serves...
  24. Sacrilege! GRAB YOUR TORCHES AND PITCHFORKS!!! :D Seriously tho... really?
  25. What number we up too now? #? Make an a*!$ of yourself on Bedlington.co.uk! (bet a few of us can check that box now! )
