Jay Yi was one of the keen followers of this year’s Teddy Bear Trail!
The Guided Walk of Jesmond Vale, organised by the Friends of Jesmond Dene, benefited from glorious weather. For more information about the Friends and their activities, email friends.of.jesmond.dene@gmail.com .
Keith Jewitt can be relied on to give a fascinating and well-researched talk, and last night’s offering “Revolution on Tyneside” was no exception! Jesmond Library was packed as Keith described the visits of Garibaldi and others to Tyneside.
