Hi Raymond, it was great to meet at Evie, I'm still laughing about your your logical question regarding who got the job. If your ever back in Orkney I hope that you get in touch because I could have chatted to you for hours. I loved your campervan, a real masterpiece in engineering.

Not the worst Market i've seen ( functional might best describe it) But a pretty characterless place ( And that's no reflection on the People) But i think n the 60's when i assume the 'Mines' & u might have had other industries were in full operation,&people were probably full of positive Vibes! But yrs of being pretty much ignored ( is Newcastle the closest Largest City?) and it appears it's been stuck in 'Limbo'. On a more positive noten.i ,hink this was the area where the ' 'Charlton' family came from? Two greats of the game!

I lived at 250 Milburn Rd (next to Woodwork Shop) until I was 7 then we moved to Ellington. My Grandma had the shop at bottom of Milburn Rd, S&I Bewicks. My Grandad Stan Bewick was a bit of an entrepreneur in the old days. Was a great place to grow up. Lot of Meadowell scum moved up to Ashington after the riots in 1992. Pits closed before that,drugs,no hope........doomed.

I live 10 miles north of Ashington originally from Pit villages. Ashington was our regular Saturday visit for shopping , Pictures and Swimming bath's. My Mam and Dad would go to the Auction every Saturday and my older Brother would take me and my younger Sister to the pictures. There was a choice of three. The Regal, The Buffalo and The Wallaw We would have a look in Mains toy and cycle shop. The indoor market , Woollies and down to Crisps toy shop. Ashington had everything you could want shopping wise ...Many, many happy memories from a child in the 60's
