The best thing that ever came out of Middlesboro' was the rock singer Chris Rea. He is also a truly nice guy and very charitable. |

You are all wrong. The best thing to come out of Middlesbro is the A19. I am now ducking to avoid all the flack. |

We were there in June, stayed at the Wetherspoon's hotel. The Angel I think it is called. |

Oh yes, how I loved Whitby as a child! We went there often. I remember the 199 steps up to the abbey. In later years when I started this genealogy lark I was thrilled to find out that my gt. grandmother was born in Whitby. (My avatar's wife) I wondered if that's why I loved Whitby so much, it was in my blood. |
