2: The Crows Nest beer garden, Haymarket, Newcasil
I went to The Toon yesterday afternoon for some 'food' shoppin and daily exercise with mee little dog and woz shocked to see the city centre completleee dead on a Saturday!
Normally this iz the busiest day of the week for shoppers and revellers heedin for the 100's of pubs and clubs---and of course the 52,000 futbaall fans heedin for 'The Cathedral on the Hill' for their Saturday 'fix'!
 |
| "FOOD!-FOOD!-GLORIOUS FOOD!" ("ER!--AALSO BOUGHT VEG AND READY MEALS!") |
With nowt open apart from 'Marks and Sparks' the street were deserted and so after purchasin' mee daily 'fix' of Broon Ale and othaa 'food', aa heeded for the beer garden of 'The Percy Arms', but they had stacked the tables and chairs on top of each othaa, with nee where to sit!
So off aa heeded for 'The Trent Hoose' instead, but again they had moved an ootside table, so aa had nee where to put mee 'DOG' (DOG iz Geordie slang for Newcasil Broon Ale!)
In desperation aa heeded for 'The Crows Nest' beer garden---and hey presto---aall the seats and tables were in place!
 |
| "HELP!---MEE DOG'S DRINKIN' MEE 'DOG'!" |
So aa settled doon with mee 2 'DOGS' in perfect peace and tranquillity to 'doon' (drink) the broon nectar!-----Social distancin' for sure!
The Toon on a Saturday afternoon!
The perfect place for 'social distancin'!
"IZ THERE ANYBODY THERE?"
 |
| NEWGATE STREET!---DESERTED! |
 |
| THE GATE!---DESERTED! |
 |
| 'THE CENTRAL'! (STATION)---DESERTED! |
 |
THE BIGG MARKET!---DESERTED!
("WOT!---ON A SATURDAY?")
|
 |
| NEAR ST. JAMES' PARK!---DESERTED! PS: I am not oot today az there are small hailstones hittin' mee windows az we speak and its freezing ootside, so aa wont be deein any new beer gardens for a couple of days! Aalso, Boris iz set to implement new lockdoon rules and I fear that aall of us wont be able to gan very far from home---even for 'food' shoppin'! Hope aall 'Geordie Times' reeders are keepin well and are not bored oot of their sculls, stuck in the hoose, but the crisis iz said to get worse! Aalso, the north east bus service iz close to collapse with 90% less usage since the lockdoon! This woz the bus aa woz on yesterday to the Toon!  "KEEP AHOLD AND STAY SAFE!" |
