John Fox (foxy)

It's a canny long haul for Vic Patterson 

I have the same problem every time I visit the site, maybe Andy is busy with other things 

Voting began over a week ago Eggs, in the first few days loads of Bedlington folk have stated on social media that they have voted.

I once had a hankering for a floating gin palace at Cambois but it never seemed to take shape. 

I'm wondering if you two haven't already opened a pub, and It looks like threegee is barred, not been seen or heard of since Monday ! 

Have a Guddin!!

Canna find a zoom tool John!

  @HIGH PIT WILMA Click on the photo and then you will have a plus sign, move it around the photo to the area you want to enlarge and click again.

Talking to one of your old marras up there tonight @HIGH PIT WILMA,  Alan Stewart, if you click on the magnifying icon around the picture you may be able to spot him

Another great success 

I'm sure our online secretary/research officer @Eggy1948 will be onto that soon

On the quoits photo the John Temple is the young lad in my family photo after he he married and left Coquetdale (late 60s I think)  I can't remember the estate he moved to but I do know he drank in the Sun and played quoits for them, as did his Uncle Harry (Jim's brother). That's why I always thought it would have been the Dr Pit Welfare park.

This is a photo posted by  Janet Henderson on the sixtownships group site with the comment :- Bedlington Terriers Football club. My Grandad ,Robert Coe Storey, who is on the back row, 3rd from the right, coached the Bedlington Terrier juniors, not sure what year.

The club house looks very similar to the one in the quoits photo and there are houses in the background but can't be sure what estate it is!!

Where did Bedlington terriers play? 

What a great photo, Eggy we need this numbered and ID put on here @Eggy1948

We were told at the Bedlington Forum meeting on Monday night that due to "cuts" the CSOs shift pattern had been changed. Instead of patrols by them continuing until 1am they now cease at 10pm........ just what the burglar ordered!

Happy belated birthday Foxy............flipping heck thats gonna cost me a pint tonight!  

G and T

Well thank you all for the Birthday wishes, although it looks like Canny and Maggs both failed their maths, so we can only blame Westridge teacher Danny Douglas for them thinking I have reached Vintage Years. I remember the top club with @STREETLIFE on my 40th and I still get out on the lash, how about you?

The film will be called ...They didn't Listen.

This ones more important than the next one in June @Canny lass the towns been neglected by our County Councillors for decades now and we allow them to walk all over us in support of their leader  Grant Davey, now they ask for our votes. Similarly the MP has recently kicked the toys out the pram and threatened us with legal action for defamatory comments made against him, days later a General Election is called and now he's asking for our support,  mmmmm!
