I know...
Someone must be seriously unhinged to do that...
I have lit fires in the past, but I have never purposely endangered life nor would I ever dream of it...Mind you I have nearly burnt my house down on 2 occasions by accident

When I was there in the summer I had to walk to the main street to catch my X21 to get me (partly) back home, and I felt a lot safer than I occasionally do in some places during the day.
I generally find Morpeth and Bedlington better than Ashington and Blyth, Morpeth because it seems quite posh, and Bedlington because of it's quietness compared to the others.
I've heard Jesmond is meant to be one of the poshest areas in Newcastle.
One of the humanities teachers at my school is really posh, born in 'Cambridgeshire' (her words, not mine) and she said when she came up to Newcastle to study history - she picked a house in Jesmond as it seemed sure a nice area.

Isn't Jesmond popular with students

Any Olympians yet?

3832 is/was on the 1005 43 from Newcastle, if that helps for an Olympian.

mb134 - I'll just get to Stanley and see if there are any out in service.
Thanks Dan.
I'll keep an eye out for her. Don't think I've been on 3832 since it was loaned to Chester for a scholars run on the 887 in Y7!

Haha yeah. I'm glad I'm almost finished on 4904, 2-3 mins and I'm at Stanley! It can't pick up any speed and was like a snail going through the countryside! Don't get me wrong, I love B10BLEs; but this one isn't the best!
Got a really friendly driver on the 34.
Nothing nicer in this world that a steaming hot Sausage Bean & Cheese Melt from Gregg's!
What does anyone else go for when they visit Gregg's?

Tuna Crunch, Cornish Pasty, Chicken Bake or a Cheese & Onion Pasty.

I prefer Mince Pies, Corned Beef Pasties, And a good old Mackem Dummy, normally get one of those with a Tuna Mayo or a Cheese Savoury Half Stottie Sarnie and a bottle of Lucozade

The Sausage, Bean & Cheese Melt is always my personal favourite, but after I tend to go for a Steak Bake or a Chicken Bake. Gone are the days of the Cheese or Corned Beef Pasty!
Problem with the Steak Bakes - is when they're fresh they're really nice, but sometimes the meat can be really hard and just generally not nice...
Corned Beef pasty for me.
Also love Greggs jam doughnuts.

Have to agree with you there, love them! Try to buy one before school to have at lunch, I don't mind that it's a bit cold

Agreed. I think it's probably one of the only pasties they do that are nice both hot and cold.

I like donuts full stop...
I normally get jam doughnuts in the Co-op or asda, normally 2 packs for £1 or £1.20 and Cadburys do some nice polo* doughnuts but only 2 for £1
*I call Ring Doughnuts Polo because when I was a kid I once commented that a ring doughnut looked like a doughnut version of a polo mint
...The daftery and stupidity of being a kid [emoji14]

Heard there had been a spate of attacks around East Stanley over the weekend
I believe they have arrested somebody for it but are still trying to work out whether the fires have anything to do with the fire at Burnside Primary School last week.

You can get a pack of 5 jam doughnuts in Tesco for 60p I think although they aren't as nice as Greggs.
Don't like ASDA's jam doughnuts though as it has no icing sugar on top and I think it tastes horrible.
I actually once got to put jam in and put the icing sugar on a jam doughnut in Sainsbury's at the Arnison Centre once when I was a kid.
Got £5 back from Amazon from my order for Game of Thrones - Season 4. =D

i would keep the £5 wisely spend it in Emergencies or could be a lucky note i usually spend it on food if am really hungry from a nearby food station eg Mc Donalds or as my old college tutor said "Save it for a rainy day" or get something nice with £5 eg something you enjoy
