    You have your opinion, I have mine.

    By your calculation, #NorthShields #Tynemouth #Cullercoats and #WhitleyBay should all be classified as #Newcastle too.

    I suppose by your logic you’re from Sunderland.

  5. Mastodonians of North East England…

    Bit of a long shot…

    If you know a Young Reader (16+) who’d be interested in being a Beta Reader for my latest novel, please get in touch.

    I’ll send them a printed copy when it’s out, and credit them.

    For context, it’s about a pair of teenagers in North Shields.

  6. Today was *gorgeous*! I hiked 30km (North Shields to Blyth and back) in the not-too-hot sunshine all the way 😁 A very little bit of a cool breeze made all the difference!

  8. I jogged 4 lengths of this sandy boi this morning. It might not be much by some folks' standards, but it's real progress for me 😀 #Longsands #Tynemouth #Newcastle #NorthShields #beach #exercise

  10. Not a bad view for the halfway point of the morning's walk.

  11. In case anyone else was wondering, the inclined lifts in the Tyne Pedestrian and cyclist tunnel still aren't working.

    And judging from the doors at either end, my #CargoBike won't fit in them even when they are running.

  13. @TheConversationUK

    An aside.

    Why can’t the BBC (national, not local news) stop reporting that Sam Fender is from #Newcastle ? He’s not. #NorthShields

    If someone was from Croydon it wouldn’t be reported as London, would it? Is it really beyond southern media to report accurately on items in the north?

  15. New post from A Head Full of Wishes
    Dean & Britta announce a show in North Shields
    OK, so maybe posting on AHFoW just because Dean & Britta have announced one more show may seem a little... #NorthShields #TheEngineRoom #DeanAndBritta #News

  16. Sir James Knott Memorial Flats

    The Sir James Knott Memorial Flats on Tynemouth Road, overlooking the mouth of the Tyne, in North Shields and close to Tynemouth, were opened in 1939. Notably, the flats were built with the threat of war in mind, constructed with fire-resistant materials and with large cellars for use as air-raid shelters.

  18. This is a great little pub in , near the fish quay.

    It had a recent refit and rebrand (I forget its former name), which sadly reduced the space available as they closed the upper floors. But getting served is so much faster, as they now have all the same staff behind the downstairs bar!

    Someone mentioned that staff *do* occasionally disappear, only to be replaced by identical folx; but I've never noticed it happening.

    The best thing is that their prices keep dropping each month!

  22. Viewed from #SouthShields in the evening sunshine, #NorthShields has a distinctly Baltic look about it (apologies for the slightly cock-eyed horizon)

  24. Had a really nice day taking the kids in the #CargoBike down to South Shields.
    A relief to confirm it does fit on the Shields ferry - the conductor slid the door open wider and there was loads of space inside.
    We went to The Word and then along the seafront, but got a puncture on the way back! Fortunately, I managed to push it to AS Cycles, which turns out to be a really good old-fashioned shop, and got back on the road in no time, now with a spare inner tube and pump in the bucket.
    Getting back up the hill from Tynemouth pier was a struggle, but with the kids chanting "you can do it" (and full motor assist) I did it!
    Used just over half the battery, over 30km.

  26. My favourite pics this week has to be the Nacreous clouds which many of us were amazed to spot in the NE on Thursday am. They were also visible at other lucky spots and free

  27. Beautiful strange colourful early morning skies be sorted as Aurora but hadn't heard of morning Aurora

  28. Beautiful strange colourful early morning skies have been suggested as Aurora but hadn't heard of morning Aurora turned out a rare cloud light reaction instead

  29. @randahl @LordWoolamaloo we say 'haar' in north-east England too, notwithstanding 'the fog on the Tyne' (Haar wouldn't have scanned in the song.) #NorthShields #HerdGroyne

  30. I've wanted to take part in #FingerpostFriday ever since I first saw it. I finally have a photo to share!
    New York is closer to #NorthShields than you might think!
