Well to be utterly pedantic here Saltburn by the sea is in North Yorkshire not Teeside . they should completely clear the area and let her blow herself up if thats what she wants

[DTCwordfan]

Now there is a caring person......

[mrs_overall]

Ahem
Saltburn is in Cleveland, not North Yorkshire

The woman is a local nutter and is currently on the ricketty pier.
Hardly an international incident

[shoota]

Is the ricketty pier the same as the slippery slope?

[mrs_overall]

No.

Mrs O
Pedant

[craft1948]

Me and Mrs_O are in Yorkshire.............Saltburn is not.

[DTCwordfan]

Maybe she intends to take a long walk off it......

Not mentioned on the Beeb 6 o'clock News

My Mother lives in Saltburn...Think I'll ring her! :-S

[Kristal53]

@ Mrs Over-all pedantic overload warning -Saltburn by the sea is in the unitary (local)authority of Redcar and Cleveland, but the in the COUNTY of North Yorks -maybe worth checking (or maybe not) ;-)

Craft, another of the offspring has qualified for a chess tournament at that school near you. Another boring Sunday :-(

[craft1948]

Then why does it have a Teesside post code..............

[Kristal53]

@DT - i don't care - as long as these loonies don't involve anyone else in their quest for eternal life and four and twenty virgins they can all go up in a puff of smoke. I don't believe in innocent people risking their lives to 'save' people who throw themselves of bridges either. At least I'm honest -

[craft1948]

lol Mrs_O..............you really shouldn't have such intelligent children.

The clue kristal is in the word 'unitary' that means it is not in any County but is a free-standing area.

[mrs_overall]

It was historically in North Yorkshire....but with boundary reshuffle in the 1970's it became part of the county of Cleveland

Anyway, we don't want it.They have Teesside accents

[mightyWBA]

Local fruitcake apparently...and Saltburn is classed as North Yorkshire,Cleveland no longer exists.

[mrs_overall]

Kristal, are you doing the Goth weekend at the end of April?

[Kristal53]

@craft -because Teeside is huge - I have a postcode of DL which is a town 25 miles away from me, not in the same borough council, though in the same county. We are also not that far from Saltburn and the pier isn't rickety - its very nice (so there!) -Lets just hope the loonie doesn't blow it up

[craft1948]

As mrs_o says it's not in Yorkshire...............they talk funny.

[mrs_overall]

Cleveland does exist. My friends husband is employed by Cleveland Police
