I used to do quite a few of these things during lectures; got some cheap bargains at grainger market, have lunch at olive and bean or have a walk round Great North Museum. I like that you said 'Look Up!' I used to find the winters so long and cold and found myself actually never looking up! It was only in my first spring there that I realised how beautiful Newcastle is.

If I have something specific to do in Newcastle then I'd get the metro to Jesmond and walk back into town.<br />Two of my friends walk from the office to Saltwell Park but I think that's quite a distance. Anyway, I have Pilates classes 2 lunchtimes ( and I daren't miss those!),<br />I don't think you mentioned many of the parks in Newcastle? That's also an option.<br />Just as an aside here, if I have to take the kids to Gateshead, my son thinks that visiting the Vue cinema and then Tesco are wonderful, courtesy of their escalators!Kathryn Hipkinnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3505716782309030758.post-88812170909879657042018-04-10T10:55:31.455+01:002018-04-10T10:55:31.455+01:00I love these ideas!
