Not an entirely random name for a blog, but close. I am not a goat herder - in the usual meaning of that word; nor does the Urban Dictionary definition apply to me either (for a decade at least): an extremely drunk male who having lost all self-respect and standards, loses his powers of discrimination when pulling females. It is said that Gateshead derives its name from a settlement near an early Tyne crossing where goats once roamed. The goats are long gone, but me - I like to roam these parts - or rather run - exploring new places, rediscovering old ones in and around Gateshead and Newcastle when I'm out jogging. This blog is a collection of my photos, thoughts, observations, rants, loves and hates about Newcastle and Gateshead.

Gateshead flats demolition continues

One down, one and half to go. Of the three flats being demolished adjacent to the flyover, the second has been gutted and is being picked apart piece by piece. I took this pic this morning from the car with my phone (I was a passenger, of course). I wish I could just get out of the car with my SLR and take some decent shots.
