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.

Jeavons music store


On a recent trip to Holy Island, I spotted this record on the gramophone in the "Ship Room" of Lindisfarne castle.  Now, I can remember Jeavons, but not when it had stores on Pudding Chare and Clayton Street.  I think the shop was on Percy Street next to the entrance of Handiside Arcade, but i'm not sure. Can anyone help?
