That would be wonderful to meet you. My uncle lives in Saltburn so I said he should help me with planning the trip as I would like to see him too. People have heard of Saltburn now because of that notorious film!

I was born in Newcastle 😊Wednesday2000 said:My Grandfather was actually from Newcastle. I have been to a few places in the north, I went to York a couple of times in the past few years. I was thinking about going to Whitby for the Goth festival next year and then maybe going to other places like Liverpool.
Let me know if you're coming to Liverpool, it's my closest city.2021 Decluttering Awards: ⭐⭐🥇🥇🥇🥇🥇🥇 2022 Decluttering Awards: 🥇

I might be going to Liverpool too.
I haven't really worked it out yet. I was standing next to a man on the tube and I heard him saying that he flies to Newcastle, which didn't even occur to me. I was thinking of going by train. 2025 GOALS

Hello my lovely friends.I don't know whether it's any quicker to fly within the U.K., especially when you add in check in times and transfers but it's often quite a bit cheaper than the train. Train fares do seem disproportionally high.
Saltburn. Lol. I rewatched it recently, it's definitely a dark one but I did enjoy it, even more so second time around. It's one of those films where you can easily miss the important little details on the first viewing.Anyhoo......life is going well. My vita is still dolce. 😁. I do so love being retired, I just the love the freedom. I give thanks everyday for my happy retired life. Being able to do what I want, when I want, with no-one watching over my shoulder, no criticism, no "helpful suggestions", no lengthy commutes, no deicing the car on dark frosty mornings, no freezing site offices, no obnoxious clients. Lol. Just peace.But.....I have been busy. Gardening and decluttering mainly. Making good steady progress. Aiming to start decorating soon. Have been socialising more too. Although still in a fair bit of pain with fibro and arthritis so pacing myself. But all in all I'm happy with the way things are panning out. The house feels like "mine" now.6
