I managed to cross off two stops on my Metro Challenge this weekend, albeit not on purpose.

On Saturday a sunny day stroll to get to know my neighbourhood took me to Felling Metro, which is a manageable walk from my place. It’s an area rife with memories and one I am keen to explore, but as one of my abiding recollections was that I used to walk down to the Metro to go into town but get the bus back to avoid walking up what is a giant bloody hill, I decided to leave it till a day when my calves weren’t sore from Barre class.

Today the stop was Hebburn, for no other reason than if you are going to Pelaw to go to Aldi and let your attention wander, this is the next stop on the line…
