Mr Darn

Does anyone around here that owns a dog pick its crap up after it?

Just wondering, i was down the woods today and couldnt believe the amount of !*!@# swinging from the tree branches in plastic bags.

If people cant be arsed to put the bags in the dog !*!@# bins, then leave it on the ground - at least it has a better chance of being washed away then.

i pick up after my pup, and yes, it goes in a plastic bag, but that goes to next door, who hoys it onto his compost heap (digs a hole, that gets rid of the smell apparently). and his leeks taste like no others! mmmmm, mmm!

really tho, who gives a !*!@# about a lump of dogs crap down the woods? are the wardens gonna start cleaning up after the foxes? i think not!

I remember the shampoo being dumpt there in the early sixties, didn't have to buy any for a few weeks, handy for the pit baths.

Should be made into a rally driving school...

along with an outdoor go-karting center, trials bike and quad track.

oh, and would it be too unsafe to build a sports center??? :-P

shouldnt this be in the sports section?

england is so crap, its like watching the toon... we need a big shake up...

some secondary school players i know could do better, and with more heart!

A mate of mine wants to know how to put old VHS tapes onto DVD with his PC anyone know how to do it please as ive given up

Spoke to a mate, and he says its real easy, so long as you have the right gear.

first you need a way of transfering the media from vhs to your pc. apparently you need a TV Card for this, available for a few quid off That online auction site that is in no way as good as Free Bedlington.co.uk Classifieds.

Once you have the tv card, you need the software to record whats coming thru the tv card. This software is available from www.download.com, but obviously the better programs cost money. if your 'mate' wants to pay thats fine, if not, some come with a 30 day trial, so not a bad deal if you know what you want done and have them ready :-)

Now, depending on the program you download to 'rip' the vhs tape, you may need a conversion program that will convert the recorded footage from the current form (normally .avi) to a dvd readable format. Programs like Nero 7 and Dvd Santa do all this fairly easily, with just a few clicks of the mouse.

But, as mentioned before, a few more quid spent will get you the software that will rip the vhs tape and write it straight to dvd, but it depends how much you want to spend.

If you need any further advice, i'll pass your contact details over to my friend who will talk you thru the process, otherwise simply typing 'vhs to dvd' in a web browser will bring up many results of companys willing to do the conversion for you for as little as £4.99 per tape.

I hope this was of some help,

Mr Darn.

Which is your favourite episode?

Itchy & Scratchy: The Movie

Sorry if you dont agree, but 'April Fool!' has to be my favorite, the way those two just wind each other up is just great!.

and who would have thought a can of duff could blow the roof off a house!

Have to agree CK, roll on the end of the season lets get some new blood in there or eles we will be in the Championship if we are not carefull.

Maybe some of them players will be signed up by Bedlingtons own Terriers at the transfer window.....

I know how you feel mate! My father had a coble at Newbiggin he tried taking me out many a time but I always ended up hanging over the side ground baiting!!!! Mill pond or not!

I love fishing but I go after trout now cos I couldn't find my sea legs and I never Will!

Yes, i seem to be giving up too!!

The boat we have is so big it takes two to run it, so without me going, its not happening, therefore its on the market, and daddy is buying a smaller version he can handle himself.

Trout is also a good sport, although i like to go for a full day, and we usually catch our limit by 1pm!!!

Which lakes do you fish?

bottom of the furnace bank!

bird table or an art sculpture which probably cost 20 grand or something!

Who-hoo, i love these!

i got the furnce bank bit, just dunno what it is and i aint yet seen it!

Theres a scheme running in Leicester at the moment called quick reads, it may well be running in other parts of the country as well. It's aim is to get people to read books but I dont know how many people take it up.

My favourite book is the Bible, probably not many people would agree with me but I think its one of the best books ever

No I am not trying to convert anybody

can you imagine if the bible had not been written when it was, and was released today? what kind of classification do you think it would have? and do you really think critics would accept all the anomalies in it?

just what we need!

Hang on... i see a pattern comming out here....

i moan about the ironing never getting done, you ask for a new ironing board and iron, i moan the floor needs hoovering, we get a new hoover, the kids need something to look after to teach them responsiblity, we get a hamster, rabbit, 6 fish, a cat and a puppy. now a new kitchen center is opening in bedlington and its just what we need?? i seem to remember commenting on the quality of miss darns cooking not long back, think i've said too much????

hang on......

i do the hoovering, ironing, look after the rabbit, fish, hamster, cat and puppy AND i do the cooking........

Hmmmmnnnnn..................

(Que Miss Darn!!!)

I don't think that the people on this forum change the subject randomly at all! Did you know that your first week's childcare at Bedlington Bears Day Nursery is absolutely free?

Why, what has happend to the windows have they been broken?

yes, the two small windows either side of the 2 main windows on the right of the building as you look at the front have been broken, and i believe they wont be fixed till the police get their finger out and fine the little beggers that were caught breaking them!

little gits!

Get your camera out, it could be a gooden for your (Idea For New Section/addition To 'taken Today')

Hmmmmmnn............................

could go round and take a few, could do a 'guess which type of dog diddit' type of thing eh?

I can't get your link to work either Mr Darn

lol, typical

lost what the plot what is this sight about again?

the power or faculty of seeing; perception of objects by use of the eyes; vision.

a connected group of pages on the World Wide Web regarded as a single entity, usually maintained by one person or organization and devoted to a single topic or several closely related topics.

to which did you refer? as i too have now lost the 'plot'!!!!!

basically this is a forum dedicated to the Bedlington area. Because most of the people who have so far found this site has re-opened are 'a little thick' that is the tone of the place.

if your wanting a serious descussion, may i suggest the pub?

simple things please simple minds aint that right

simple things?

theirs no way i would believe that much could come out of something so small had i not seen it myself.

if it had been mine, i would have been shouting for a camera, i swear to god!

(she'll see it when she takes the kids to school tomorrow, i aint cleaned it up yet!!!)

we arent just criticising the ridge farm, we do actually discuss other places we've all been to

yeah, like i sem to remember commenting on ashianni's delightful menu not too long back.... i'm about due nice sitty in...

I was just wondering Barlass, if you could clamp your customers (People I mean) you could have a full pub all week. Just a thought.

Pete,

go in any day of the week, i dont think they do bar stools, just pots for them to sit in!

at least a few of the same faces in everytime you go in, guarenteed!!

maybe they are clamped to the bar!! i never thought to look!!

A lovely bunch of lads and lasses tho

looking at this quote, their seems to be a " between the http:// and the web address, making whichever program opens the web page add another 'http://' at the start..

methinks you had a go, then put the web address in again later perhaps?

damn fine attempt tho Ms Hair!!! well done!!

(for those that want the link, but are too lazy to fix it, click here)

that link dont seem to work Ms Hair!

i hope Mr Darn does not have it twice, once is bad enough he has been ill, i have been poorly with it but no where near as bad as him

Twice? once hasn't finnished yet!, had to leave work early on monday night as i was sick all over my office, had tuesday, wednesday and thursday off, but went in on friday still ill, because it was my understanding you could only be off for three days before needing a sick note, and i aint getting a sick note for flu!

little did i know, where i work, you dont get paid for the first 3 days, youi can have 5 without a sicknote and i would have been paid for being in bed on a friday night coughing my insides out, rather than doing it at work!

What a bliddy laughing stock i turned out to be!

Feeling better now tho, just got a wicked cough.

if thats the type of thing that makes you proud then you must lead a sad life

yup, but you should see the effort she puts into it, she looks like a chinese wicket keeper!

Just wait till it shites all over the floor. It'll be in a black bag and hoyed into the Wansbeck.

erm.... Too Late?!!?!??

Pics to follow, she does ones that make me proud!!!!

He is so thoughtful he has even said "if we split, i am taking the puppy"

yeah, thats exactly what was said.

just like if someone said "i'm going out with the lads tonight dear" it translates to "i prefer alcohol to your company you frumpy, fat old tart."

nice place to bring it up "Dear".

didnt know mr darn cud be so thoughtful

lmao, i supprise many people, including myself sometimes!!!
