@RNIB Will do

So, on a street in Newcastle, you stop my son, who anyone speaking to him readily understands he has a profound learning disability, and you elicit his bank details and sign him up to a monthly donation payment plan. Shame on you @RNIB! 😡

Thank you from the bottom of my heart to Victoria @NE1BID for rescuing my dog and the staff @SpotWhite8 for looking after him until I got there. There’s no end to the warmth and kindness of folk in #Newcastle ❤️

@thetrainline Hi, can you help? I’m trying to change the date of my return travel, but every time I attempt to book the new ticket this message comes up: ‘Your search has expired. Please search again.’ That’s been happening for a couple of hours now.

@LeedsBS Five weeks and I still haven’t got an answer to my mortgage application - so much for getting the housing market moving!

A beautiful sunny Saturday winter wonderland in Corbridge today. Roads and pavements are fine but still looks very picturesque. With our acclaimed shops, cafes, pubs and restaurants open under a blue sky. Photos from yesterday.
