Photos from the visit to the Tanfield Railway
Last weekend we paid a visit to the Tanfield Railway in Gateshead to enjoy fish and chips on the train. Here are a small number of photos I took during the ride.
The fish and chips lunch was organised by a company called Fox and Edwards. It's worth looking them up as they do similar events at heritage sites throughout the country.

Momos in Kings Cross
We were in London recently, staying in the Kings Cross area. After a bit of a search we found Momos where we turned up without a reservation. Although crowded, they still fitted us in. Being outdoors was helpful as we were experiencing the back end of a heatwave. First class Greek food. The photos speak for themselves.
Ravensworth Arms
The Ravensworth Arms is a pub/restaurant in the village of Lamesley in Gateshead, North East England. We had lunch there yesterday. It is worth a visit though it is busy and popular with older couples and funeral parties (at least when we were there!) A full menu for pub lunches is available.
There is a good area for sitting outdoors.

Borough Market
One of my favourite places to visit in London is Borough Market. If you love the sight and smell of good food, this is the place to be. To get there take the Tube to London Bridge. It's a couple of minutes' walk to get to the market.

National Liberal Club dining room
During one of our recent visits to London we were able to book a table in the dining room of the National Liberal Club. Fantastic food!
Fish and chips on the Tanfield Railway
Snapped stuffing my face with fish and chips! Yesterday we visited the Tanfield Railway in Gateshead, in the North East of England. We were attending an event that was organised by a company called Fox and Edwards. They specialise in putting on events at heritage locations. In this instance it was fish and chips on board the Tanfield Railway.
Good fun had by all. I will post up the video soon.
