Graffitti in Newcastle

These are just a few of some of the interesting pieces of graffitti I have found around Newcastle.

Photos from my wanderings in Newcastle

Here are some of my recent photos taken while walking around Newcastle.

Scottish Independence

These are my own personal thoughts on Scottish Independence I also apologise for the lack of punctuation. Have those in charge really thought out the problems this can cause 1) Border disputes if a farmers land is on both sides of the border does this mean they have to go through border control to get from one field to the next. 2) Bus passes where as at the moment people with passes can travel freely south of the border if they gain indepence then surely this ability will be removed. 3) Membership of the E.U. they will have to apply to become a member with no guarantee they will be accepted thus making it harder for business relationships in Europe. These are just some of my thoughts while wishing them all the best I would also urge caution.

In this post I have included a selection of some of my recent abstract photos.

The Settle Down Cafe

I found this cafe a few months ago and have decided that the unique decor and friendly staff as well as freshly made food, make me want to share it with others, the food and coffee as well as an assortment of teas and soft drinks at reasonable prices make it truly worthy of a visit in themselves but it has also been voted 2 years in a row in the Observer food guide as the best cheap eats in the North.

The Basement Coffee House

This good little indie coffee house is based in Newcastle at 9 - 11 Carliol Square Newcastle NE1 6UF 0191 2411534. The interior is well lit and the staff very friendly, they serve a good selection of hot and cold drinks and fresh food, I tried a cappuccino and it was of better than some of the main stream coffee chains, as well as good food and drink they also have free WiFi so you can keep up to date while enjoying your repast, remember though I am doing this for pleasure not profit as I think Indie Coffee Houses deserve more support.
