I lived all my life in Northumberland. The only reason I do not still do so is because 40 - odd years ago they changed the boundaries and left us lumped in with dreary old Tyne and Wear. I still think of myself as Northumbrian.
Sorry you're under the weather, hope you feel better soon :-)

I've never been to Northumberland.

Hopefully not by Friday?
Hi Minty...…..the search parties have been called off. Are you sure it isn't hay fever? You have had it off and on for a week or so now.
This was back in the days of the infamous Heath government who had a major reorganisation of county boundaries in 1974. This created Metropolitan County Councils such as Tyne and Wear, Greater manchester and so on. These were abolished by Thatcher in 1986 but the names still remain as postal addresses. Until then everything down to the north bank of the Tyne was Northumberland and everything south was Co. Durham. If you leave Newcastle by the main east coast line, half-way across the bridge is still the old sign pointing to Northumberland and Durham.

What a joke that was, my family home moved from Royal Berkshire to Oxfordshire overnight :o(

No deffo a cold...got fever...interesting Jack x
The boundaries move wasn't all bad news - some lucky Yorkshiremen became Lancastrians overnight.
I was originally born in Surrey, but because of the changes I was retrospectively born in Greater London. My mum didn't see that coming.
Minty....have you seen the doctor? You seem to have an awful lot of colds.
