Was the Lord Mayor’s Field sold off to plug Advance Northumberland’s debts? Could it now become an extension for the Amble Links caravan park? The sale of the Lord Mayor’s Field (LMF) has continued to draw questions, despite efforts to quell concerns. Here’s what we found out…

An ex #Amble resident is calling out the ‘harrowingly sad’ situation for #Police officers who are injured and then medically discharged. He has launched a campaign calling for a new service #medal, which has already gained national support.

The latte art in Tokyo is next level 🤯 I asked for a bear, Sophie asked for a tiger, and Lottie asked for Munchlax from Pokémon.

@mootParadox that thought has definitely occurred to many others in the town

@AnnaAtTheAmbler I don't think it would be too cynical to suggest it's suspiciously generous that an American property investment trust would want to buy anything just for the public interest...

The perception is that #Amble is growing more than ever. Would it surprise you to learn that the #population has actually fallen? #northumberland

The final #sculpture in the #bordwaalk trail has now been placed at the top of Horseshoe hill, opposite #Amble Harbour Village.
'Cracked’ by artist Stuart Langley, is made from carbon fibre and epoxy resin, and is lit from within which will emphasise the cracks as light fades.

Well we didn't win, but I can't tell you how honoured I am that The Ambler was shortlisted for the ICNN Independent Community Newspaper of the Year award. I didn't attend the ceremony, which was held on Tuesday night at the Hilton in Park Lane, but I've just been sent this photo...

So thank you to all our contributors, volunteers, and supporters, we really couldn't do it without you all!

An #Amble #surfer who helped save three people from #drowning has lost his #home and belongings after a #robbery. But kind hearted #friends are rallying to help him get back on his feet.

Just arrived in Newcastle, where it’s currently -1C. We may well have a huge amount of work to do when it comes to retrofitting buildings for energy efficiency, but apparently the zeroth law of energy efficient buildings - closing the optional holes that leak heat - still isn’t universally accepted. BOTH windows in my hotel room were open. 😮🤯
