Ah, the girl is good, ain't she - it's known affectionately up here as the
silver slug. You couldn't have been much closer, SINnie!

Oh, Carpy, I was passing through Newcastle on the train earlier, and saw the Sage from the window. Fookin' hell, that's weirder in real life than in pics.

I'm sure
Blast has been there, but I doubt you have ... it's Govan Town Hall! Just round the corner from the science centre.

Going over the bridge was fantastic. Half the place was shining new, towering all up, and by the station, there were buildings half fallen down, old factories torn to shreds by age... looked great.

She's not far wrong - a more mixed up area, architecture wise, I've yet to be in - it's like odd things get altered every few years and all mix into one big mess-O-buildings. It's amazing really and adds an odd character to it.
