  1. I read that the market is being moved to the front street, anyone know when and where? Will it be put at the Market Place where they had that European Market? Will there be enough room for it?

    Also,once it`s moved to the Front Street, will they ban the bootsale part, since most of it`s off Ashington tip?

    :lol::lol::lol::lol:

  2. Great .. you can get money off rotten meat or child abuse survivors books.. have you noticed the predominance of those books in that shop? Thats disturbing. It wouldnt be there if people werent buying it , check it out next time your in.

    :lol::lol:

    Thats Blyth for ya

    Speaking of meat, Tesco was selling chickens off for 31p yesterday, and mince meat for about the same! They were still in date by a day. I remember when Somerfield was there, they had a habit of selling funny coloured meat and I wouldnt care it was still twice the price of the butchers. Greedy !*!@# .

  3. Was at ASDA today and the customer in front of me was using her Tesco 'Spend £30 get £10 off" vouchers on her shopping. When I asked about it, apparently whatever offers or deals Tesco have on, Asda will match it.

    So anyone who got those vouchers through their door, you can spend them at Asda if you want.

  4. There's nothing inconsistent about Merlin's position. The PC here confuse immigration with asylum, just like they get confused about many other pretty straightforward things. :P

    Of course he shouldn't be kicked out, if only for the pragmatic reason that he's an asset to OUR country.

    If you say here that a small island can't throw its doors open to billions of economic migrants somehow that gets twisted to being an 'ism. Well... if that's the case over 90% of the silent majority in our country must be 'ismist.

    Those who have lived a little, have survived the PC indoctrination of lefties in our education system and media, and don't go around with their eyes shut, know differently. It's unfortunate that the extreme right in our country give this equally vocal minority of 'ismist branders a lot more credibility than they deserve.

    Joe's position is commendable, but it's through the rose-coloured glasses of his youth, and it's from a vast country that is well insulated from what's currently going on globally. It's not about compromise with some silly girl that wants attention at school - don' t they all?! It's about a complete takeover of our culture, moral standards, and standards of fairness and reason by retards that will have no truck with any of your 'ismist crap.

    If the PC get their way it will be too late for anyone! Paradoxically only the center right can save the PC elements in our country from the product of their own stupidity. And, like occasions in the past, you'd better bet that they will! Peace in our time was also a highly commendable lefty slogan until the cows came home.

    I agree!

  5. been in today,bit disappointing not what I expected,but we'll see when the other half of the store is open.

    W. I'll give it a fortnight at the outside :lol:

    I dont think the other half will be used as the store, just like Somerfield kept it empty to stop the competition getting in. They might use it as storage or something... is that what they are using the old More Store as?

  6. Oh my!

    For the last few months the green shirts in Walmart have been asking our postcode. I guessed it was something to do with trying to stop the development. I thought they sounded scared.

    Last week I did my final shop at Kingston Park... ugh, those big city folk in their 4x4s and the Burberry-clad urchins. I couldn't wait until I my own nirvana came to fruition.

    Saturday. My clubcard vouchers came! 'Spend £40 and get £8 off'! Totally get telt!

    Monday. I drive up and down the street, gazing at the happy shoppers, giddy with anticipation for Mr Vic finishing work so that we too can join in with this new fangled palace of joy.

    Monday evening. It is Somerfield, but with aisles too narrow. And full of people who mustn't have found their way to Netto to buy soap in the great supermarket depression. Not a bruschettini, sun-blushed tomato nor French goats cheese in sight. The girl on the checkout asks me what my aubergine is. Then tells me she knows my courgette is a fruit, but is uncertain what kind it is either.

    We escape down the ramp to an unlit and glass-strewn car park, happy in the knowledge that Bedlington has no intention embrace modernity whatsoever.

    Didnt anyone else get vouchers? I got some through my door on Tuesday... 4 weeks worth; spend £30 get £10 off.

    I agree though, the aisles are tiny! It only took two old people to recognise each other and the whole aisles was blocked. I think once it's been open for a month or two things will settle down and it might make the place more bearable.
