Truly fortunate...
So was I...
 
The chosen few.

I was out in Newcastle last night it has changed so much in the last 15 years or so. when I lived in Newcastle I didn't really notice the changes, but now I visit every couple of weeks or so, something seems to catch my eye every time.
 
I will be there later this week.

You are right - I often see changes when I am doing my daily walk up there.

It is 25 years since I lived there - and the frightening thing is that they are changing things that I still think of as relatively new (i.e. built in my lifetime). The messed around with Eldon Square and have knocked down the Central Library and built a new one...

Whenever I get lost because of street changes - my husband says "you are the geordie" as if I will have an updated map in my head just because I was born and brought up there...
 
I think the new library is really nice, part of me thinks it is a shame that it is hidden away, but then when you catch a glimpse of it hi=dden behind northumberland st it is a little gem.
 
I love the movie Top Gun (my favorite movie of all time) and I was accepted to the Air Force Academy to pursue flight school while I was attending university at a different school (ended up not going for various reasons, but I still think fighter pilots are the bomb).
 
Mine is from a lyric of one of my favorite artists, Jason Mraz :)

"Wake up everyone, how can you sleep at a time like this unless the dreamer is the real you"
 
Well, I'm a guy, I was very fat, now I'm just fat (so perhaps it's more accurate), and I'm lazy, or was. Maybe still am a bit, but definitely less. Plus it's my blogging identity.
 
Even though camping can be a lot of work, it's FUN work! A cheap way to take a break from it all. I love the campfire and my husband plays the guitar. We camp in a nice big canvas tent. Fits two twin blow up mattresses and a queen. Yes, we take the kids. And the dogs. . .. but still a nice little get away to be outside . .. .
 
I am seeking fitness for life and that's why endurance, I was just obssesed with my weight earlier I mean I didn't care about exercise and my fitness earlier and did lose a lot of weight by dieting , I have changed a lot as a person and now I am seeking fitness with less focus on scale :)
 
When I joined the forum I had just started running for fitness and I was reading about shinsplints at the time and thinking they sounded like the most painful injury I'd ever heard of (luckily I've found they're not that bad).

Um, I guess I'm also quite a painful person to be around ... so the name fits.
 
Well, on other sites I try to pick epic names that fit who I am and what I like. This one was made to be more comical, but staying true to my usual name like.
 
SoxFan because I'm a BIG Red Sox fan. If you've seen fever pitch, I'm that guy. Yankee toilet paper and all.

23 isn't my age, but it's a number that is significant to my wife and I.
 
Jessie is my name, hence Jess, and 39 stands for the license plate prefix where I grew up, and the 3 is the license plate prefix for where I am now. Lame, but I've used it forever :)
 
Mine is my name is well. Yes, my last name is Love.
