Christmas light video

November 27, 2010  |  Newcastle upon Tyne

Something a little different today! I really like the Christmas lights on Grainger Street; I think they’re the best of the lights in Newcastle. And Mrs K, who comments here a lot, said that she can’t make it in to Newcastle to look at the lights; and I know lots of my readers don’t live in Newcastle any more. So here for your viewing pleasure is a little video of the lights on the crossroads of Grainger Street, the Bigg Market and Newgate Street :) (Hopefully it also makes up a little for posting being a little sporadic round here recently….)

What do you think? Would you like to see more videos? If so, what of?

  1. That is wonderful, Beth, I have seen them in daylight but is not the same as seeing them lit up.

  2. Thanks for the lights Beth. Mobility problems prevent me from seeing them, so your pics are the next best. MikeM

  3. Okay, now I am officially home sick and missing Newcastle even more. The atmosphere is pure downtown holiday! I love the video, just hearing the buses driving by! I love this intersection-sitting in Pizza Hut, good people watching from the window as we would munch on our pizza. One of the food items my mother really missed when she moved back to Newcastle to retire from California was pizza- Pizza Hut in our opinion was a wonderful taste from home.

  4. Thank you, thank you and thank you.

    Beth, bless you for being you and bless your parents for having you.
