We're staying as Jesmond......

Newie is a great place - Nobby's is the beach where the Pasha Bulka was stuck a few years ago. This time of year there could still be a fair up behind Nobby's in the car-park ? Caves Beach is great for the kids, lots of stuff to explore.

One day the cook & I will probably move back there........I love the beaches around Newie.....
