St Mary's, Whitley Bay on Saturday. Lovely light, lots of lapwing, and 70 seals resting on the protected eastern side 👍

Today is officially known as 'Blue Monday' 🔵 Studies show that because of the weather, low amount of daylight and the lack of money people tend to have at this time of year — Monday 20th January is the saddest day of the year. But how can you be blue with views like these? You simply can’t!

Channel 4’s Love It or List it contacted us to ask if we’d spread the word they were on the lookout for families. Sean and Sarah saw our post and applied. I received a message from Sean saying they’d been successful & their episode airs next week. How lush is that? Photo credit: TV Guide

It was lovely to be invited to the Whitley Bay Pantomime Society production of Sleeping Beauty last night. We laughed from start to finish. It’s incredible to think the Whitley Bay Pantomime Society have been entertaining families at the coast for 60 years. Go along and support them this week

😍

Wow this is stunning 🌕

Good morning from Cullercoats. Orange sky not blue

Fab photos of the seals at St. Mary’s Lighthouse here in Whitley Bay

It is!

The penultimate episode of Vera aired last night. Here’s few pics from when the cast and crew filmed their last scenes in Whitley Bay @anncleeves.bsky.social
