    My wife waited outside while my daughter popped in to the shop that Pets at Home in Coulby, total time was four minutes, the invoice was sent because they weren't parked in a marked bay. I contested the case with Parking Group Ltd, but they almost immediately knocked it back, they then informed...

    You can fly Teesside to Amsterdam, and then Nice, all with KLM. I don't think they do discount codes though

    Steve Harley - Cockney Rebel

    One of my favourite bands back in the 70's, 'Come up and see me, make me smile' was number 1 on my 18th birthday. A brilliant songwriter in my opinion. RIP Steve

    Brighton fans stabbed in Rome

    Travelled to Italy in 1980 with England fans, and then the Boro v Roma, as much as I love Rome, and Italy in general, I wouldn't go back there if you paid me to attend a football match. Horrible fans, and police who turn a blind eye. As an earlier poster said, if this happened in England, the...

    Mr Bates vs The Post Office

    Maybe the Tories are already ahead of the game, Nadhim Zahawi appears in the drama. His appearance almost gave the impression that they give a hoot. Although Bates local MP was a Tory also. In the drama, Bates mentioned this, something along the lines of "he is nice for a Tory".

    Mr Bates vs The Post Office

    One bunch of crooks investigating another bunch. Paula Vennels was a lady of the cloth in the CofE, who are infested with the Masons, as are the Met, and the Royal Family for that matter. This will be another whitewash!!!

    Mr Bates vs The Post Office

    Toby Jones is absolutely brilliant in this harrowing tale of the working man vs the establishment. He has since refused an OBE because Paul Vennels still has her CBE. Hopefully the link below works. Sign if you feel as angry as me 🤬...

    Shops that don't exist anymore

    Fantastic shop, I used to buy Airfix and Revell model kits from there. I seem to remember they had toys and pans hanging up outside. The front windows were packed also. Sad to see that stretch of Linthorpe Road nowadays.

    And Away - Bob Mortimer

    I lived there between 1966 and 1980, and it was never known as the Lakes Estate, maybe that's what other people called it. Andy Mcdonald was an old school mate of mine, I can confirm that he lived on Coniston.

    And Away - Bob Mortimer

    Dr Longbottom's surgery was on Linthorpe Road near Sacred Heart Church. He was my doctor too, he was also known as Dr.Basil. He was very short sighted I recall, but a wonderful doctor. I also lived on what Bob refers to as the 'Lakes Estate', the fruit van business he refers to was on the corner...
