Weekend, Friends & Beamish.

We've had a lovely weekend. Our good friends from Dunoon came to visit overnight. Last night we went out to the fabulous Pavilion Chinese Restaurant at Iveston near Consett - this restaurant is wonderful, service food everything spot on. Then this morning we took our friends to Beamish Open Air Museum. I love visiting this place. It is so inspirational letting you step back in time and seeing all those beautiful original homes, shops and buildings. I especially loved the really old locomotives - they really seemed to me to epitomise the steam punk style that I love so much.
Love this engine - it's so "Steam punk"

  1. Thats the part of the world I stared in! I used to work with the guy who owns the Pavillion and I used to go there when it was in Consett, it is the best. My Mum still lives a 2 min drive from Beamish, I love it there and each time I go I want to move in!

  2. I love those old steam engines, I missed IndieTracks this weekend, a festival that combines indie music with vintage engines.
