For English Tourism Week I visited one of my favourite places in Newcastle, the Grainger Market! Once Europeβs largest covered market and still thriving today. Fresh food, coffee, vinyl's and much more.

And again I find myself perching in a cafe in Lancaster near the beautiful St John's, which might be beautiful but is way too cold for hanging about. If only someone would open a hotdesking space nearby...

Powerful story telling at its best by @clean_air_book. The stories of women in history are just as important but often overlooked. I loved hearing about their community and their tenacity. Not a dry eye in the house!

Such an amazing tale of tenacity, passion and people power! Jennieβs story reminds us that ordinary people can do great things. Thank you @clean_air_book for sharing your grandma!! Tears in the room right now ππ»ππ»ππ»ππ»ππ»ππ»ππ»

Love the playfulness of Lampounette a permanent installation for the @lumieredurham with @artichoketrust proud to have been involved!
We called it first - #Durham's next most photographed spot, right there! πΈπ
Paying homage to the iconic office desk lamp, but GIANT size. The permanent installation of Lampounette will transform this of corner of #Durham. And we love it!

This faded blue plaque has been my favourite moment of the week.
Should we not treasure the birthplace of the Rocket?
Is it not a site of international importance?

A plan is brewing to start the restoration process at Elswick Cemetery (St John's). It will take a few years of hard work, but it is in a desperate state.
