Welcome To The New Directory Guestbook
It’s been a while since we had a guest book as we had to close the old one due to spam comments & links from people who had no interest in Geordies or Geordieland, however, because we now moderate all comments in order to protect our visitors from nasty spam links we thought it was time to open the guestbook once more.
Please use the comment box below to add your own greeting.

Hi Darren, I don’t know if you noticed but this is the guestbook section … you know, a section where you say things like “wow, brill site, absolutely loving it
, and then almost as an afterthought then say “oh and by the way would you consider including my site in your Geordie Sports section” … “you know what I Mean?”

Come across your website and I love it. Please have a look at my site adaptedmaps.co.uk as I have an artwork on there that may be of interest to you – an adaptation of the Metro map. Wondering if you would like to get it on your site?
Keep up the good work lads.

Aye! Canny stuff this!
I’ve been to the “Toon” 5x’s in the last 2yrs, and I can’t get enough of the people and the places.
Lots of famous rock musicians were born and raised in Newcastle Upon Tyne, and the surrounding suburbs. I’m on a quest to find the childhood homes of Mark Knopfler in Gosforth, and John McLaughlin’s in Whitley Bay. If it wasn’t for a Geordie (Chas Chandler), the world would never have known Jimi Hendrix!
I was born in Brooklyn, NY, but I truly appreciate the Geordies.
Cheers!

Hello,
I believe that John McLaughlin lived on Warkworth Avenue in Whitley Bay, which is off Norham Road. I do not know the number but I am fairly sure of the street. You could confirm it by looking at the electoral register.
