Tanfield Railway 1940s weekend

Over the weekend, the Tanfield Steam Railway, in my ward and only 15 minutes walk from my house, held a 1940s weekend. I paid them a visit on Sunday. A great afternoon and I thoroughly enjoyed the talk given about food rationing and "make do and mend" (useful lessons as we move towards crashing out of the EU!)

Neptune Restaurant, Seahouses

Seahouses on the Northumberland coast is famous for it its fish and chip shops. We had plenty of choice as to where to have lunch when we visited on 3rd September 2019. We opted for Neptune Restaurant. A good choice! Great food, freshly cooked, not overdone and not covered in oil or fat. Definitely worth a visit.

Visiting Bamburgh Castle and Seahouses

On Wednesday, wearing my Sunniside History Society chairman's hat, I went to Bamburgh Castle and Seahouses on our annual outing. 21 of us took the trip. A good time had by all. Photos from the trip are above.
