Favourite street

Today was supposed to be a big family day out: all visit the Tyne Festival, drop TallGirl off for her train south, then off to see some aunties. Predictably, Mam decided at the last minute that they would spend the whole day with the aunties instead. So I caught up on some work instead in the morning then we took TallGirl to her train, and CarbBoy and I mooched around Newcastle, including the Discovery Museum, a FAB basketball shop (so CarbBoy finally has proper basketball shoes) and - of course - Grey Street.

MetroCentre to round off the day then home for sausages and a program about racism that seemed to drift over my parents heads (despite the volume).
