Just been down Shields for fish n chips

Posted by Norman Dunn on 5/7/2025, 5:08 pm

Joan & I went for fish n chips at the famous Colmans take away so we could sit in the car looking at the beautiful views I've taken below about 4pm today. Believe it or not they were £2 cheaper than the same order we got in Station rd, Hebburn recently.
Its the same when the Fair comes to Hebburn they charge quite a bit more for the rides than they do when they are in Boldon Colliery.
Do Hebburn people realise this?

1 person infront of Joan & it was still being cooked so it was about 10 mins, and then a few more people came in Davy.There was Loads of people up and down Ocean Rd and it looked like a real Holiday resort. The beaches might have been busier earlier.

I was down earlier on the Groyne watching porpoises in the river mouth.

It was blowing a hooli on the beach, especially at the end of the Groyne where I was.
Plus, I think most would have been at the South Tyneside Festival Parade in the town centre.
When I parked at the Customs House, the promenade was packed with colourfully dressed young people getting ready for it.

When we were on Ocean Rd getting the fish n chips there was loads of families with children walking up from the beaches, heading home so it could have been busy earlier.
