Shopping centres, weather, and other things that British people like to talk about.

Well, I haven't written on this blog for some time.

So Newcastle life is going well, it is not as hot as some parts of the country, in fact yesterday it rained ALL DAY! Not just spitting rain, massive buckets of water from the sky. Today is better weather wise, a lot brighter.

Josh came up to Newcastle last week. We went to the the city centre, and into a rather large shopping centre - eldon place or something - and it did the thing that all shopping centres do: make you feel like you're in any city in a any county, SOMEWHERE in the UK.

It is very strange how this happens, and it might be something to do with the shops all being the same in the whole country, but it really did feel like I could be in Reading, or London, or Scotland.

So we attempted to make our way out, and then spent about 20 minutes wandering round this vast bright shopping centre unable to find the exit! At one point we could see the street from above but couldn't get out, it was weird!
