The shine on the Tyne is all mine, all mine...

The shiny Quayside. Riverside bars brimming with the chattering classes, the dirty weekenders and staggering stag doers. Strange accents, shrieking laughter, accordion players with weathered faces, Big Issue sellers from foreign places. Camera clickers, Lycra cyclists, open topped big red buses and summer sales in tired outlets... Warm sunshine.
Yes it looks like Spring is on its way.
