    You are correct Viv. That is where I used to go to buy my single/albums. If they didn`t have a record I wanted Sylvia would get it in for me & give me DJ discount, as I worked for hospital radio at the time. Spent many an hour there: & loads of dosh too!

    Ah yes. I remember a time when every night was music night in Ashington. Either a disco or live band on all week in the social clubs & of course The Cellar.

    During our first FM broadcast I had to pleasure of interviewing ex Bedlingtonian author Paul Mann re. his book "The Leek Club" Life in Bedlington during the 50s: an excellent read. But don`t give it to your Granny as an Xmas present! In our last broadcast another author stopped by: retired Lieutenant Colonel, Sydney Carr to talk about his book "The Fourth Lad". http://www.amazon.co.uk/The-Fourth-Lad-challenging-upbringing-ebook/dp/B00BZZKMWU/ref=tmm_kin_title_0 Another facinating snap shot of his younger days in the 40s & 50s, growing up in the colliery rows of Ashington. I`ve just finished it. Wonderful! It triggered so many memories for me. Including (to name just one) the furtive underage drink in the Portland worrying if the local police would come in! As it isn`t a Bedders related theme, I haven`t added my interview with Syd to the audio archive, but as it is about a subject/era that gets covered a lot in our forums, I will do if requested.
