Thanks Fred,,we usually head for the indian on Grainger street. Otherwise somewhere in Tynemouth, Might even eat in the hotel where its quiet ,,I cant be doing with struggling through screaming half dressed kids to get to the bar, Of course i shall be doing a wee bit of looking up in the library,,plus the inevitable shopping while Graeme is at the footie match..

You ,should have a good weekend Claire,the town is busting with continental farm markets at the minute[and continental prices]. The castle keep is worth a visit too,and there are many places to eat.If you like to eat chinese style ,try Charlies at Gallowgate ,all you want for £8 a head and the choices are fab.Take a camera into Stowell street [china town] ,that is really colourful.Fred.ptfg.

Sounds intriguing. Blimey Mary Queen Of Scots, at school, we got both she was a baddie and a hero, what do you get up there??? Don't make women like her now do they? There's an Irish woman who married loads of blokes, she got rid of the ones she was tired of, Grainne Wail (spelling again cause its foreign, sorry) makes you think about Womens Lib. My type of women though LOL Pat x

Wow Newcastle I fancy that again, what a beautiful place, I knew about the bridges but the Architecture blew me away. Oh by the way so did their accents LOL didn't understand what they were saying but what a place to go for a short break. Would love to do that again. Pat x

Might be worth trying National Trust, as they do accommodation in various places throughout the UK.
