To be honest. Most of 'us' try to avoid going out, because of the fear of getting jumped on by the local chavs.

Ha! Don't even walk round Bedlington if you're not 'local'! Despite having the same surname as the place and using my card in the supermarket confirming my namesake status, the checkout lady had to get the supervisor as she didn't believe that was my name...and outside the situation got worse when some chavs asked if I had a light (I said no) after which they shouted abuse and told me to !*!@# back to where I came from! Gladly! Not only did I !*!@# myself but I'm starting to think Wigton, Cumbria is not so bad...scary!

Other than that I agree that there should be more music in Bedlington. We went out in the town and it did appear slightly dead!

Thanks for the info!

Hi everyone in Bedlington

My name is Rebecca Bedlington and I am interested to know if there is anyone who knows the history of my surname? I am from Cumbria and have visited Bedlington but I am unsure where the connection with my name is! If anyone can help it would be great!

Regards

Rebecca
