I remember him in Pardon my genie as Mr Cobbledick, early 70s. One episode just telling some one ( I think he was chinese) his name took 5 minutes "my name is Cobbledick" so the guy then called him Cobblewick So he then says No NO it's **** Ah Mr **** Cobble wick, now I have it...

Theresa May came to North Shields about two weeks ago, booked a hall for a private "kids party" and then held a rally for Conservatives only to hear what they wanted to hear. NO ONE else allowed, no criticism and no questioning so much for talking to the real people ! They even had bouncers...

That is the disgrace of the Labour party that even at this stage where HE is actually resonating with people there are still members of the parliamentary party that are against him. As you say how much better if they were to get behind the message and push that and keep their opinions to...

I never went to Journalism lesson either at school or at a college but I reckon I can spot space filling when I see it, all the papers do it but local ones more than others. First they print the Headline "Man bites dog" Then in the first paragraph they write " today a man bit a dog" Then in...

For all those who are considering voting for Mrs May, why should you bother turning out for her when she would not turn out to show what a strong leader she is? IF she wins (that was a big if btw) will she even turn up for the Brexit talks or will sh just send Amber Rudd, a confirmed remainer...

Stick to the fiction and stories about him and then you don't even have to read the polices and make a balanced decision based on facts. That't the easiest way, but maybe not the best!

I'm surprised they have not included " Mr Lennon was not available for comment"

and that is why you have to tax them more, to help look after the many not just the chosen few!

So no biased opinions there then!

Me too, didn't want him to go but didn't want him to hang on like that either! I was just talking yesterday as we passed a respite home where we left my dad for one night just after his original diagnosis. I went home and got a call from the home saying he had "escaped" by climbing a 7 foot...

Mad as a box of frogs when he was on Blue Peter. I remember him climbing up Nelsons Column and a freefall from a plane with minimal training, I doubt they would be allowed to do that now without £1 million insurance. The "elephant in the room" is still marvelous television!

Just came across this story that the Family of Bradley Lowery why is terminaly ill have asked people to stop posting RIP notices on social media. Whilst I do not support terrorism, IS, the IRA I can understand that these may driven by an underlying cause or objective however misguided. I...

Apparently some American guy said " If you can't stand the heat get out of the kitchen! So I took his advice , went in the garden and it was even hotter out there! Last time I listen to yanks about the weather, they should stick to talking about the Kardashians, that's what they are good at!

I must admit i do my fair share of moaning, and then a bit more on top! It's wot keeps me going!

I don't know if you realise that it has been hotter in South Cumbria than it has been in parts of Greece, does that make you feel any better? Probably not!

Welcome to the Grumpy Barstewards corner membership! This really is a rallying call for new members

Have you tried retuning your telly to a different transmitter sometimes you can pick up more than one?

Yup, hopped continuously from bittering, I seem to remember it was with Falconers Flight hops. It is a really nice hopped beer, below is the can but also do cask/keg.

A local microbrewery has an APA that is hopped every minute and it is packed with hop flavour!

Just been to my "local" one in Gateshead 5 miles away for 500g or Carafa special,Brown and Black malt. A wee bit more expensive than malt Miller but saved £6 postage and two days delivery!
