Superyacht on The Tyne

Went to the hairdressers in Gateshead this afternoon. I had never been there before and the Living Social voucher I had said it was in a gym on the High Street. There are 2 gyms on the High Street and I went to the wrong one. Had to quickly scoot further up the street to the correct one. The lady hairdresser was lovely - nice and chatty and I'm pleased with my haircut. Didn't have much of a change just 1½ inches off and a few layers put in.

Went to a couple of shops in Gateshead and then got the bus down to the Quayside. Saw this superyacht moored up at the marina. I have checked on the internet and found out that it is owned by a mystery American millionaire who has stopped off in Newcastle with his family as part of their summer tour of Europe. ( He is not a famous person apparently - just rich ) The ship is called Sovereign, is 55m long and is worth £40 million. It has six suites including a VIP master apartment, an infinity pool and two bars. Looks bigger and better in LARGE.

Then I got the bus into Newcastle city centre and did a bit of shopping in Waitrose. Managed to get a few tins of Tino's favourite cat food. Its often out of stock so it was great to find a few tins for him.

Today would have been my late husband Douglas's 86th birthday. Wish he was still here to celebrate it.
