[@TynesideLife]

Thank you for the great comment 😊

[@neonskyline1]

Enjoyed that, the last clip you showed my Penthouse at the Basin, we lived there a year, it was like being in a real life soap opera, Newcastle is without doubt the nicest city in England

[@WomanNextDoor]

Merry Christmas, Eddy. Having spent two+ long years "daan saaaf", coming back to the bosom of my homeland was probably the best feeling in the world. Originally from Benton, Newcastle I'm now a resident of Gateshead but the warmth of the Geordies is something that is a constant over the years. I've always viewed myself as an unofficial ambassador for Newcastle, immensely proud of its heritage, dialect, and everything else that makes it an unique, wonderful city. Keep up with the excellent videos, Eddy I'm learning stuff which is always a bonus.

[@TynesideLife]

Merry Christmas to you too Elle 🙏🏻🎄 I’m a Gateshead lad too and glad you’re enjoying the videos 😊

[@willtoon88cat]

Supported Newcastle all my life lived there for 5 years and I loved it can’t wait to move back. I make the round trip of 550 miles for every home game win or loss the team means everything to me. My dad took me to Whitley bay every year for our holidays can’t tell you enough how much I love this City.. these videos are amazing!!! Definitely my favourite channel on KZbin.. Eddy do You know any history on granger market and could you make a video on it thanks love that place!

[@TynesideLife]

That’s some commitment! Hats off! Glad you’re enjoying the videos 👊🏻 I’m hoping you do one including the grainger market very soon 👍🏻 All the best 🎄

[@williamanderson5437]

Another Great presentation, people overlook Newcastle a lot....but it has more charm than London, the people are genuinely friendly, the girls are very attractive (beer is excellent - bring back Newcastle Exhibition), architecture will surprise you, I recommend a trip (more than just one day & you'll need one full day if you take in Beamish open air museum alone, just a few miles south), to take in the sights, and there's always St James Park - Toon Army......

[@TynesideLife]

Well said William! 👊🏻

[@sprigsyy59]

Hey eddy, just want to say that I love these videos, I'm a Geordie born and bred and I feel like I'm seeing the city in a whole new light through your eyes! Thank you the content. Looking forward to what 2022 has in store for the channel, may even catch you in town and get featured hahaha

Good morning Eddy, another well turned out video. Its this time of the year that I start to miss the family having lived away from Newcastle for forty years. I'm not that religious about Christmas its just great that families get together for a couple of days and catch up on what everyone has been doing but we are not in a normal world at this moment in time. I just want to say mate thanks for your channel really love it and have a great couple of days with your family all the best.

[@sohailalrahi3846]

Fantastic video as always Eddy. The best 2 things of the city are the people and that your never too far from certain places. I live in the west end and it takes me 5 minutes to hit the motorway, 15 minutes to get deep in the countryside of Northumberland and 15 minutes the other way to get to the beach. I could never move out of Newcastle. It has everything for me

hi pal, absolutly love ya channel, your content is ace and refreshing, supported the toon since i were a little 9 year old in the black country in the west midlands, im 36 now and it pains me to say ive only been up to the beautiful city which is newcastle once, i deffo need to come back and visit i really miss the place, i honestly think when me kids hav grown up and got there own lives i'll have to really consider moving up the toon and get me season tickets. keep up the good work pal

I was at College in Newcastle in the late 70's and early 80's, the change in the city has been extraordinary, much for the good and some not so, sad to lose the Mayfair and some of the pubs, The Farmers Rest, City Tavern and Haymarket in particular.

Smashed it again,mate,and I wish I was working at the match to chat to you again but seeing Roy Chubby Brown was a once in a lifetime opportunity and I just couldn’t miss it. 😂 Another idea for a similar type of historic video is the transformation of Whitley Bay and maybe’s if people like the current change’s that have been made or if they wished that it was like what it was 50 year’s ago.

[@TynesideLife]

[@barrysteven5964]

I love Newcastle. My only beef is how they've appropriated the term Geordie. I was born in Framwellgate Moor and mostly grew up in Hebburn and never really questioned the idea that real Geordies were from Newcastle itself. I always thought of Geordie as being one thing and Mackem and Pitmatic as being different. It was only last year when I researched the history of the term 'geordie' for an American friend that I discovered the surprising truth. There is no 100% sure evidence of where the term originated. There are only theories. The Newcastle theory is just one and no more valid than any other. One fact is that the earliest written references to Geordies were actually about the miners of Northumberland and Durham. I feel a bit robbed. But as far as I'm concerned now we're all Geordies. Mackem, Pictmatic, Newcastle, Northumberland are all variations of Geordie accents/dialect and Newcastle maybe the urban centre of Geordieland but it certainly doesn't own it all.

[@TynesideLife]

Great message Barry. Check out the video I did about what a Geordie is and isn’t. I think you’ll enjoy it

[@occidentadvocate.9759]

If your from Hebburn your a Geordie mate. 👍

[@matthewfickling4441]

I'm from a pit village in south east Northumberland and I consider myself to be both Pit and Geordie, they aren't mutually exclusive. I would still say Mackem and Geordie are mutually exclusive, but maybe some people from South Shields or Washington could weigh in on that

[@Azog150]

I met an older guy from Newcastle who told me that they never used to talk about "Mackems" growing up and there was never the big Newcastle-Sunderland rivalry that there is now. He said it was sad that the divide developed, and put it down to football....

Lived in Newcastle for 3 years and loved it. People on the whole are very friendly. Unfortunately it is also the only place I have been randomly assaulted (twice) for having a Scouse accent. Sad really, because in Liverpool both Newcastle and Glasgow are the two cities we always think of as having an affinity with. It seems it's a one way affinity....

Have a quick watch of my intro I done over a year ago now' I'm out doing allot of what is shown on it but struggling . Certain channels including yourself inspire me to open up more but I do struggle talking to the camera and for someone that used to work in the large white building that's now been demolished on city rd its hard to believe eh. The one the Egypt Cottage was attached to' the cottage was called studio 6 by us lot because there was 5 studios in the building but most people used the Cottage hence studio 6. Your channel is going to grow without a doubt. There is so much to tell others about NE1 and its neighbouring towns and villages. Your becoming one of my fav channels, I appreciate your work. Davie
