This takeaway was a business belonging Peter Chan, who then became the forefather of China Town in Newcastle.

My Nana (Harriet Henderson) would often look after there children, I can remember attending Peter's wedding as a child.

Sorry, *Peter Cheng.

The Chinese was on the Millbank Terrace end of Hirst Terrace (Now Brook Court). I remember when it closed that it was infested with rats!

Please, how do you know Frankie moreland, he lived with my nana Hariot Henderson...thought of him as my Uncle, my favourite actually. He had a brother, Bob.

Thanks, that's great.

Thanks for the advice, sadly I'm not a member of Facebook.

Can anyone put names to these faces?

Point taken.

I'll vote on one condition, if the supporters stop parking in the streets next to the grounds and use the designated car park (Tesco).

It's impossible to park anywhere near your own house on a match day.

I've always used Tyred & Exhausted, can't fault them. Good honest service.

The Monkey (Barrington Arms) 

I attended first school with lad who's family ran the Barrington Arms back then.

I remember the teacher asking him if he had any idea why the pub was know as "The Monkey".

To the best of my recollection, he explained that inside there was a picture of a chimpanzee hung above a fireplace somewhere and that's why the locals began to refer to The Barrington Arms as The Monkey.

Yes, we know that the chimpanzee is actually a great ape, not a monkey, but that's how he explained it.

Parliament will debate this petition if enough sign it.

Yes it's easier, but more affective and direct, it is the 21st century after all.

The British jump on the bandwagon brigade, probably the same morons who watch and vote on the X Factor.

Cheers, I'll vote for the state visit and to hell with the morons.

I was only implying that Morrisons need to address their extortionate prices, a little competition should sort that out.

A win-win for the people of Bedlington I would've thought.

Also, I was unaware that such a small store such as Bedlington Morrisons employed over 100 people??? 

And please don't believe everything you read, especially from a newspaper such as The Sun.

How long can Morrisons survive when Lidl opens in February?
