    No we didn't... We signed a bloke called Gareth Hall who lived in Chelsea. A footballer he certainly was not.

    :eek: :rolleyes:

    Is there any-need<laugh>

    My point is, you might of been better off using a different example of an airport to get your point across.
    Rather than one with its location in the official title...<whistle> " like Liverpool airport"

    Liverpool John Lennon Airport

    As I pointed out "Liverpool airport"
    With the inclusion of "John Lennon".

    Hmm, apart from a small settlement associated with the fort guarding the bridge at Pons Aelius, Newcastle didn't become a settlement of any note until after the Norman Conquest. The area in which Sunderland lies became an important monastic site by 674 AD, almost 400 years earlier, when Benedict Biscop was granted land to found Monkwearmouth Monastery by King Ecgfrith of Northumberland. The present city of Durham is much later, its founding being traceable to 995 AD.
    So yes, Newcastle and Durham are historic cities, but no more historic than Sunderland.

    As if that vote is going to make a difference <laugh>. It was tabled by the liberal democrats FFS. There's a whole other private company who own the other half of it who would have a say. Glad you were rattled enough to tune in. :emoticon-0136-giggl:emoticon-0136-giggl:emoticon-0136-giggl
