  3. Pft!! Malcolm..........what's the health and safety issue? I can't remember there being any issues when i took my daughter and son there to play when they were young
  4. Went to Dr Pit park on Saturday afternoon with my two small grand daughters, there were quite a few people using the facilities, bowling, kids on skatedoards, football game going on, and a few kids on the swings etc i did think that as we are now well under way with the summer holidays the paddling pool would have had some water in for the kids to splash around in!! anyone know the reason why it is not filled? Also, while i took drinks and fruit with me it would be nice if there was some kind of kiosk selling drinks, snacks and ice-creams.
  5. The Terrier land will have 10 or 12 bungalows built to accomodate clients from Glebe road hostel, Glebe Road Hostel will then be demolished and a new sheltered housing block will be built for the residents who are presently living in Glebe Court (sheltered accomodation) The current Glebe Court Sheltered housing block will then be demolished. confused...............ha ha

    The Alley Cats

    I was in the Tavern last night, enjoyed seeing the Alley Cats again.
  11. Contact Number for Northumberland County Council 0845 600 4 600 Apologies.... The correct number is 0845 600 6 400
  12. Contact Number for Northumberland County Council 0845 600 4 600 You are right........everyone does have a part to play and it is up to the public to report these things otherwise how will the Council know about damages. I used to work for a "Local Council" and my family and friends would often complain to me about a street light not working for weeks and say "it's a bloody disgrace because it's dark and not safe" i would ask them "have you reported it"? they always said no!! How the hell can the council repair something if all people do is complain among themselves but not bother making a phone call or going into one of the offices? Every one just assumes someone else will report the problem when in fact no one does. The staff don't drive around at night in the dark looking to see what lights are off or do walk abouts during the day to check for graffiti (maybe they should). p.s is dosn't matter what department you work in or what job you do,.... you work for the "cooncil" so you're to blame
  13. It was damaged in the high/strong winds on Sunday night.
  14. Yes but it's our stink hole. At least the other stink holes you mention do have shops where you can buy clothes and electrical items, at the minute you cannot even buy a pair of knickers or underpants in Bedlington. If a couple of high street names were to come to here it might encourage more independant traders to invest in Bedlington, and although i do use Tesco it may as well close and go elsewhere unless they can expand and start selling more variety of products like the one they have at Kingston Park which i and a lot more people thought they were going to do.
  15. Would be nice to have some shops at the Market Place. Went to morpeth yesterday to get a couple of presents for a christening and a birthday and a few other things i managed to get exactly what i wanted, also checked out the new shopping arcade but it was so busy i couldn't get a proper look. Would have liked to have spent my money in Bedlington!
  16. For £500000 screw the family and my dignity
  17. The Whitley Memorial School was apparently broken into that night, police dog handlers were also in attendance
  18. Just before 2pm today i was driving up Stead Lane from Bank Top towards Bedlington when came upon a gentleman standing in the middle of the road waving both his arms at me, i stopped the car wondering what had happened,thinking someone was maybe lying in middle of the road after a hit & run. Alas i could see no injured person but looked to my right where the said gentleman had turned his attention to.............to see an elderley lady with walking stick who had maybe come out of bungalows and was still on the grassed area and six mile from the footpath and kerb!!! grrrr. He stood in the middle of the road till she got up to him and then they both proceeded to cross together, he did wave and me and she waved her walking stick..........i think it was to thank me!!!!! I did wave back and smile while swearing at them. old gits
  19. I also heard it was going to be some kind of childrens centre,also heard it may be turned into apartments upstairs and retail unit/s downstairs? Blue Bell also has a new owner and should be opening in a few weeks? New couple took over the Black bull two weeks ago and the official launch night is this Saturday. ( i hear the previous landlady is now at the Sun Inn with her hubby) oh and lastly the Dunn Cow is re-opening as a resturaunt. Anyone else heard any rumours/lies/half truths

  22. thanks for the help Cympil but........................................your'e trying to help someone who when went for some pc training asked the tutor what to do to get the cursor back in the middle of the screen when my hand reached the end of the desk with the mouse!!!!!!!!!!! god i can't believe i've just owned up to that on a public forum mind you a friend of mine was told in her group to to pick the mouse up and she literally sat with it in the air, I have improved a bit since then i think, i can now shop online, weh hey and add smiley faces, however, where do you find an image and what the hell is firefox I read most of the posts in the computer sections, but they may aswell be written in a foreign language to me. thanks anyway Charlie
