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.

The Alchemist - First sneek peak inside



Not much to see at the minute though.

According to the Evening Chronicle, an exciting new bar / restaurant, from the people who own the Botanist,  is coming to Eldon Square.   As part of the development of the new restaurant quarter, set to open later this year, the all-day bar restaurant will open inwards on to the mall as well as facing externally on to Nelson Street.


I never knew there had been a Music Hall on Nelson Street.
