Day Out to see Dame Laura Knight in Newcastle

There are no pics for this blog cos we went on the bus and I didn't take a camera! In fact, we caught the first bus at the end of the road.  We had to do a small jog because the crossing lights were against us but the last person in the queue held it till we got there. At the local bus station we slid seamlessly onto the express to Newcastle and climbed upstairs to the front seat.
Got off at the corner where the Laing Gallery is!...  http://www.twmuseums.org.uk/laing-art-gallery.html 
The Dame Laura Knight portrait exhibition is on till the 16th Feb and if you are within reach, it is splendidly worthy of a visit.
The weather remained fine and we walked a couple of blocks to our favourite lunch spot...http://caferoyalnewcastle.co.uk/.
Afterwards the goddesses were with us and all the buses arrived at the same time as we did. We sauntered home before 4pm with a fresh loaf of bread from Lidl for ron.
Billy was so glad to see us and has eaten well and settled down in front of the fire just as I'm about to do now.
Cheers Gillian

Thanks for the links. It's so nice to have a person to come home to - I hope Billy had your supper ready.
