Geordie Threatens To Sue Argos

In the following video a Ashington Geordie threatens to sue Argos for smashing his window with a Argos catalouge and frightening his cat, so far it has had over 200’000 views on youtube.

The Geordie Nanny – Jill Halfpenny

One of the funniest of Catherine Tate’s Geordie sketches is where she skits the Geordie accent alongside Gateshead born actress Jill Halfpenny .

In the following short video Jill plays an agency Nanny,

“from the north, Newcastle I’m told, but it could be as far as Sunderland” who is urgently drafted in to look after a posh southern woman’s (Catherine Tate) children.

Coats For Geordies Winter Appeal

geordiegirlsnowNow that the winter snow had arrived with a vengeance we would like to remind all you Geordie Lads “n” Lasses of the need to protect yourselves from the extreme weather conditions despite ye warm blooded geordie genes.

In the following youtube video Chris Connely also makes an appeal for members of the public to donate to the Coats For Geordies appeal.  😛

 

Thank you for listening 😀

 

Please note: this is a nicely done and humorous Geordie parody and “of course” no such appeal exists 😛 –  however, coats and jackets can be donated to the numerous charity shops on nearly every High Street throughout Geordieland (and of course in nearby Darlington).

 

Cullercoats Bay & Blue Flag Beach in North Tyneside

Cullercoats Bay is a small blue flag sandy bay popular with geordie families featuring caves nestled in the surrounding cliffs in the centre of the bay which was in times gone by a thriving fishing harbour providing shelter for more than 150 fishing boats.
 
The bay is also home to the RNLI lifeboat station which still plays an active part in this small North Tyneside seaside community.
 
The following photos and slideshow shows some excellent views of this popular North Tyneside bay and beach.

South Shields Fireworks Show

The South Shields Ocean Beach fireworks event staged on the south side of the river Tyne was brilliantly done & fortunately in 2017 the background was illuminated by a very bright & massive full moon in a very clear north eastern sky.

The first of the 2 free shows was also viewed with the added background of the fantastically lit ocean beach pleasure park.

However, I don’t think I could have got any closer with a better view of the second part of the fantastic show without getting my feet wet 😂 #sandancer #southtyneside ..

The video below shows a small portion of the overall fantastic show #bestever .. well done to the geordie lads and lasses of South Tyneside council 🙂
