I spend a lot of time at either the cinema or theatre. You will then find reviews from these films and shows!
I am not really sure how I have managed to miss that Whitley Bay hosts a film festival every year showcasing older films and giving you the chance to see them on the big screen. This is certainly something I am going to be getting involved in and heading to see some of the films.
It is taking place between 10th August until 3rd September 2017.

For Mother’s Day being a total film geek. I thought it was a great idea to then pass some of that onto my Mam for Mother’s Day this year. So when I received an email from a local independent cinema , the incredible Tyneside Cinema in Newcastle to be precise.

I had certainly had the tickets for quite a long time, which is always a shame when it comes to any concert, show or performance. But it did allow me to be able to listen to the album over and over and over again.
