You still haven't figured it out. In the group I visit the only

YOU.

Oh, that's you in the clear, you halfwitted septic ******.

You're a ****ing idiot, Bro.

Behave Steve.

Nothing to do with me, Rich.

Where are you Jim? You're missing all the fun.

He won't be back.

Has he done a Wlat?



Hubby tells me Walt was a nice man who got sick of the silly people
on here
and left.I have made Jimmy do the same.
Well done. But like Wlat, he will be sorely missed.


Who was/is Wlat?


A legend in his own lifetime!


Perhaps in his own mind.



[BTW, as northeasterner, did you see that Mike Neville has died?]


Oh dear, he was something of a real legend. The Walter Conkite of Tyneside.


He and a fellow presenter, as I recall, had a sideline in singing
traditional folk songs and the like in the late 60s/70s. He must have been
a respectable age but it is still sad to learn of his death.


He was 80.

I don't recall him singing folksongs. Are you thinking of Alex Glasgow?
I seem to remember him occasionally being on Radio 4's Today programme -
but he was mainly a folksinger, songwriter and playwright. Mike
Neville's news sidekick was George House, who died in 2012.

As well as being a TV news reader and personality, Mike Neville also
appeared on the 'Larn Yersel Geordie' record.

He was very well respected - and one of Jez Lowe's folk songs about the
news that the local pits were going to close was entitled 'Mike Neville
said it (so it must be true)'.
