myLot reputation of 95/100. ronaldinu (7780)   ranked 81 out of 5,315 in travel11 months ago

I would like to know which are the places of interest that I should not miss during a one week stay in Newcastle in summer. I will be meeting some friends in UK who live in that area. I am sure that they will provide a full itininerary with lots of interesting places to visit.

About ten years ago I have visited Hadrian's Wall and Vindolanda besides Edinburgh. I hope that I will be able to visit Edinburgh agian this time. I am thinking about visiting York too. What are your suggestions?

Hi ronaldinu,



I have never been to Newcastle because I live in the south of England but I do support Newcastle United foorball team, strange but true and I have no idea what is the main attraction there except the Ange of the North, hope you will enjoy it there when you come over.

when it comes to places of interest in Newcastle you may think that the city's exports like tv shows, magazines etc all shed some light on what the city has to offer, but Newcastle is much more interesting than that.

Firstly there's the city's historic offerings, remnants of its rich past which still stand today. Within Newcastle itself you can go and explore Castle (Garth), the remains of the 'new castle' that gave the city its name.

The Keep has three floors for you to explore linked by a succession of staircases that take you to rooms such as the Gallery, King's Chambers, Queen's Chambers, Great Hall and dungeon.

This can be a VERY LONG post so ill keep it short. Other places of interest include Gateshead and the Angel of North, Hexam Abbey, Hadrian's Wall, Alnwick Castle and close to Newcastle are the towns of Banmburgh and Jarrow to name a few

Hi ronald, I am not familiar with those parts of England as I live a lot further away from them, but both places are steeped in history so am sure someone will be able to tell you where to go and what to see...littleowl

Hi ya ronaldinu

What I suggest is that you come down, way down, further South!! LOL lol. Although, as you know, I live in the South West of England, I have never been to Newcastle, probably because it is so far away from me. I bet there are alot of people from Newcastle who have never been to my neck of the woods either. They are a really friendly bunch up there though so you will be in good hands as I am sure you are aware! I have been to Edinburgh though for a wedding and I thoght the city was very beautiful even though it comes with it's problems like any big city!! Hope you have a good trip and don't forget to send me a postcard!!


myLot reputation of 95/100. ronaldinu (7780)   ranked 81 out of 5,315 in travel  11 months ago

Hi Humbug. I found flights at bargain prices with easy jet from malta to newcastle. I have two friends there so that's why we are going there this summer. My wife wants to visit Edinburgh and as we are going to be close there we will have at least a one day visit there. Besideds Edinburgh we might visit leeds for a dog show.

I really wish that we could visit the south but I think it is too much travelling from north to south of England. One of the boss's rules was cut down on travelling time. But I have not found the magic wand yet that can take me to several places at onec without travelling.

Last time I visited Kent besides newcastle. I would like to visit London. (Yep I have never went there) I would like to visit a lot of places in the south of UK.


myLot reputation of 95/100. ronaldinu (7780)   ranked 81 out of 5,315 in travel  11 months ago

There is a dog show in the first week of August in your area. I was hoping to be there since some collie friends are going to be there.....


myLot reputation of 98/100. Humbug25 (4101)   ranked 128 out of 5,315 in travel  11 months ago

Where abouts exactly ronaldinu? Do you have someone that will be able to look after you sheltie whilst you are travelling? Newcastle is miles and miles from where I live and would take you most of the day to get form one place to the other!


myLot reputation of 95/100. ronaldinu (7780)   ranked 81 out of 5,315 in travel  11 months ago

There is a show in the first week of August Paignton -Clyst Saint Mary, Exeter, Devon, UK. I would have loved to visit it. But since we have decided to go to Newcastle I think it involves a great distances (plus expenses). However I do wish it was still possible to go for that show.

i would really love to explore the devon area. It would be lovely to meet you in person. By the way did i guess right...or was I completely off track when I tried to visualise how you look like?


myLot reputation of 95/100. ronaldinu (7780)   ranked 81 out of 5,315 in travel  11 months ago

MY father in law will be taking care of the sheltie while we are away:)


myLot reputation of 98/100. Humbug25 (4101)   ranked 128 out of 5,315 in travel  11 months ago

Well Exeter is only a stone's throw from where I live, like 45 min drive or so, nevermind. I am glad you will have someone to look after your dog for you, have you got her yet by the way? Has she arrived and settled in? Well anytime you are floating around Devon then please don't hesitate to give me a shout. I can't remember what you said when you described what you thought I looked like, I would have responded to your comment so you will have to go back to the dicussion to have a look. Oh hang on, I roughly remember what you said and I think you were only correct on one thing but were very flattering!! blush


myLot reputation of 95/100. ronaldinu (7780)   ranked 81 out of 5,315 in travel  11 months ago

The breeder is still waiting for the blood test to come out. Two weeks have passed so hopefully next week it ill be out. Than the breeder can make the necessary arrangements to send her over. Believe me adopting a child would have been a lot easier with less red tape. We are waiting anxiously for Saffy.

I hope that I would visit Devon if not this year, in he near future. I am sure you are able to pin point several places of interest that I should not miss.
