We'd originally planned for today to make the trip to Shildon we didn't other with last week, because of lousy weather (more snow!) then go home via Bishop. We got cold and rained on in Darlo, though, so big'un decided we needed to head to teesside. I made the excuse to take the X12 to Newcastle (had considered buying tickets for the GNE X10 that was in, but it was already full by the time we got to the stand) and pick up some more OCC coffee there.
Fairly busy, got there at half 11 and stayed for an hour but went the wrong way and got half way up the road before realising mistake so had to walk all the way back (first time have been to Bishop), bought some items on the stalls. Lots of crowds there, especially at the castle. Just started raining once was on the X21 coming back. On the way back from Middlesbrough for The 500 Group Bus Rally at the Transporter Bridge. Busy down there as well, review will be posted once I get home.
