I hope you've set off early from Nunthorpe Amelia , about three hours will do it as it's murder getting into the town, it's about ten minutes on the train which there are about three a day, I bet Mallon would not come to Nunthorpe he is about as popular up here as Jeremy clarkson at a council office!Nunthorpe is my back yard mr Mallon.

I am pleased he has taken time out from cutting council services for this important occassion. Amelia is an asset to Middlesbrough but not sure the timing is right for Mr Mallon to do this at the moment!

Redcar raven we too in Nunthorpe, some but not all are quite partial to a parmesan, my cousin always has one when he comes up from Dorset, as well as rabbit and pheasant, I'm going for the traditional turkey this xmas day as parmo is not really festive even though it would be good for soaking up the alcohol!

There is 11 trains a day from Nunthorpe to Boro. If people choose to sit in traffic a payfor parking as oppsed to £2.90 for a return I guess thats up to them.

I have to wonder how much this little reception is costing, money well spent with all the cuts to services and I am sure Amelia does not really give a rats about it, much more interested in the fame and cash and all the trimmings that come with these programs, give her 5 minutes and she'll be in London with Boro in the rar view mirror!

I was at the Middlesbrough Volunteer Star awards at the end of February where Mr Mallon said ''Its these volunteers that make Middlesbrough fantastic''. Not a mention anywhere in the Amelia Gazette.
Oh, I know why, the volunteers werent losers on a pointless telly show.
What a disgusting PR stunt Mr Mallon. The bandwagon went two weeks ago.

When will he honour all the volunteers from all the community projects he intends to close. Why not put her forward for the Queens New Year Honours list. I think he,s been on the Christmas Sherry Trifle.

you can see now where your 3.5% extra council tax goes its a pity its not spent on failing services which are badly needed in the community i cant understand what the fuss is all about the lass isnt a superstar and is at best mediocre Mallon will try anything to gain the spotlight he"ll be singing next or squacking

This I cannot understand when services are being cut everywhere in the ttown and we face 3.5% rates rise. She is a good singer but hardly worthy of such an event I am afraid Mallons priorities are way out of line. Still good luck to the Lass.

Once again, well done and good luck to the girl! Obviously Amelia has contributed to the good name of the Boro in doing what she's done but hold on a mo! What about Patrick Monahan the comedian, he actually WON!

So just what has this young girl done? She appeared on a TV talent show, got kicked off, got let back and then got kicked off again! Now shes an ambassador for Middlesbrough but at least she received a goody bag, probably a few jellies and a plastic toy.......

Seriously though, WHAT HAS SHE DONE?
Come 3rd on a talent show which means NOTHING anyway
Fair enough, in a few years if she was a big pop star and promoting Boro, award her all you want..........but this is just embarassing!
A memento recognising her acheivments.............short memento then considering she's acheived NOTHING
