  1. "What's the point"!

    That sad hopeless cry of defeat is beginning to sound like Bedlington's epitaph!

    Too true Joe, there are too many Monsta's who make excuses, plenty lip service and no action.

    Whatever you think, you have to admire the dexterity of the dogs.

    Typical :(

  3. Does anyone have any idea about what used to be in Barrington.

    Was there a pit there, and when did it close?

    Was that the only industry?

    Are these buildings still there? Did they belong to the coal board, or who else owned them?

    My relative was described as a servant girl, living in office row, but I assume Office Row would not be where she worked, only lived.

    Would love to hear of any history of this street, and/or Barrington.

    Barrington was a separate colliery and village. http://www.dmm.org.uk/colliery/b035.htm Very little of it remains although I have seen some relevant local publications in my local newsagents recently.

    yeah bedlington pit was located there, think it might have been the old colliery rows opposite nettos,

    Opposite Nettos?..... Barrington ......... Toony :D

  4. I think images any bigger than 100kb have trouble uploading, as does anything bigger than 800 x 600. If the image is a JPEG (Or JPG) format, try changing it to GIF, the quality wont be as good but the size will decrease... either that or just shrink the image.

    The smaller images look terrible when increased to almost full screen. :(

  5. Thanks Swalnalla, I like the birdies myself (Ref feathered type). They are one creature in this world that has real freedom, they can go where they like when they like and they do not need a passport to go to another country.

    :D

    There are many 'great bustards' in Bedlington Pete, without feathers.
