Old Newcastle by onewing

Old Newcastle

Another busy day. Cinema this morning with friends and then we went out for lunch together. I was the driver, so when I dropped them all off at their homes I called in to see Elizabeth in the care home because I haven't had chance to visit her for a couple of weeks. She is as chirpy as ever and next week I am going to take her to the cinema because there is a movie I am sure she will enjoy at our local cinema.

Over the next few days I am going to be posting photos taken in Newcastle last week.

There are a lot of changes happening in Newcastle at the moment but it is nice to see some of the old buildings are still surviving.

Thanks so much for putting yesterday's photo on the TP and PP. Two days in a row, how good is that.
Interesting to hear what movie you thought Elizabeth would enjoy! Probably me too!

Lovely old buildings, I'm sure that they will survive the ravages of time far better than the concrete monstrosities that are built today.

Lovely buildings, particularly the Fred Ash one with those unusual windows and the intricate brickwork.

@peterday There is always something going on here. It is hard work being retired, ha ha.

@beryl @pusspup @cutekitty @sangwann @pdulis @nicolecampbell @angelar @seattlite @mittens @inthecloud5 @merrelyn @flowerfairyann @fishers @peadar @carolmw @susiemc @craftymeg @carole_sandford @haskar @yaorenliu @vignouse @pyrrhula Thanks. Luckily a lot of the old buildings in Newcastle are surviving, but it is sad to see some of them being removed to make way for high rise apartments.

@ludwigsdiana Thanks Diana, there is always so much going on here, we are lucky to live in an area with such a variety of things to keep us retirees occupied.

@chimfa Thanks Jane. We do seem to pinch so many of the UK place names.

@happypat Thanks Pat. We went to see Poms, it was a nice easy movie to watch.

@lesip Thanks Leslie. It is nice to see the old buildings still surviving.
Yes the movie was Poms, a nice easy movie to watch.
