Newcastle's old "new castle" I was in Newcastle in 1994 to do some research at the University library there. Unfortunately, I haven't been back since then. I'd like to go back and see the new Millenium Bridge, as well as renovations that have been recently completed. And I really enjoyed drinking Newcastle Brown in the city of its birth! |

Hi Chet, I enjoyed reading these tips, and I like your emphasis on the substantial Victorian architecture and its "Noble Aspirations". -- Are you planning any more trips to this part of the world? | barryg23 Fri Feb 16, 2007 08:32 UTC
Nice page on Newcastle, I'm looking forward to trying Newcastle Brown in its home town this weekend. | deecat Fri Mar 5, 2004 19:35 UTC
I found your travelogue on D-Day Parade wonderful & somewhat touching. I like your emphasis on architecture, Theatre Royal & the bridges, especially High Level Bridge. History of Charles, Earl Grey, fascinating. Local loyalty & pride, interesting, too. | deeper_blue Thu Feb 5, 2004 22:15 UTC
Geordieland why aye man. Nice pics of castles! I think the Geordie accent is harder to understand than Manc personally. |
