I'm moving back home to Shields after being away too long,this time i'll spend the rest off my days here i love the place Colmans chippy,Ship and Royal,Marine Park,Saveloys,and the best seafront in the world there's no place like home i can't wait
Lovely to see my home town again, miss the beaches they are awesome. It has changed but so has everywhere else. The beautiful buildings aree still there. I rmrmber my childhood on Marsden beach walking up the pier and to the Groyne. Even remember BBC it's a Knock out in the park!
Slowly but surely being eroded by the new Jeremy Kyle generation which used to be confined to few sink estates, but has successfully breeded into overspill and became a mainstream presence in almost every cranny of South Shields. Labour's generous tax credits have helped this breed become more affluent and both off licences and pubs throughout the town are reaping the benefits.
Our forefathers would turn in their graves. What a mess. It's true
I use to go here when i was younger for a holiday. We used to stay in a caravan not far from the beach. I was like 6-8 years old when I last went. I'm now 16. I used to love it. We used to go to the fun fair near the beach everyday.
Is the pub still there? They did a great Sunday roast lol.
I wouldn't mind going back but only for a night or two. There is not much there for me now. The arcade was my favourite. I used to win lots of money.
Thanks for the video it brings back great memories!
I was once in love with a girl from South Shields. We met a Genesis at Knebworth. We kind of eloped but got caught! I did see her again after that, but we were banned from seeing each other so it was difficult living so far apart - I was in London. If anyone knows of her by chance perhaps you couold point her towards this message because I'd love to make contact with her, find out how life turned out for her etc
great shots & not boring - was that al stewart - i'll show this to our bulgarian friends & the local school children - saves a thousand words; but i'll credit you.. bravo zillbov
Funny how your typing errors occur in the same place of the same word "realy". You dont like those double Ls do you. How do you spell villages? You're a complete moron and you're making a fool of yourself. If you want to reply to this then I suggest you get a dictionary.
i live in south shileds u missed out all the shitholes well most of the town like the hill woodbine nook sima bidick well most the town realy and missed out the realy nice parts like westoe and harton vilages u tit
I don't take criticism from a half-wit who cant even spell his own home town. I would normally delete offensive comments but I'm going to keep this one just to show people how illiterate you are.
A few years ago, two parents went out for dinner. A few hours later, the babysitter was calling to ask if she could cover up the clown statue in the kids' room, the father said,"Take the kids and get out of the house. We'll call the police, we don't have a clown statue." The "clown statue" is really a killer that escaped from jail. If you don't post this letter on to 10 videos tonight, the clown will be in your bed at 3:00 am with a chainsaw in his hand(SORRY BOUT SPAM THIS REALLY FREAKS ME
Hey Lauren. It's nice to be complemented by the UK's number 1 Youtuber. Just seen your site. You really are amazing. If you need any advice on video production just give me a shout.
Eee well personally I love livin in shields me... it isn't actually a bad place to live at all. Everywhere in the world has its scum bags, and thers other places which has far more than we were blessed with lol
As for crime etc. it doesn't happen very often the odd petty crime but nothing big, nothing compared to the south of england n that!
The council should give me one shouldnt they, I got this letter off them the other day, council tax department, they reckon I owe them 40 quid? lol wtf? Ive never met them before in my life
How do I go about getting a wheelie bin round these parts? Ive just moved here and I havent got one, but I really need one, I was gunna steal one from someone else, but thats just fucking low
why say this place is a turd i have just came back to see my best mate die i love this place dont mean to sound like a twat this is the 3 time in 2 years i have hd to come back for to say goodbye to people i love RIP LOZ !!!!!!
where in whitlease mate i used to live in turner ave just next to the fad pub. i now live in dorset. i used to work with my dad but now i am a chef in army miss the place loads. barrys sweet shop still there ?. its been 8 years since i have been there.
I lived in Millais gardens right at the back of Whiteleas from 1974 to 1994. Last time I was there about two years ago Barry's was still there. They bought the butchers next door and knocked through to make the shop bigger.
hi Scallywags - I lived in Millais Gardens a long time ago - have great memories of Whitleas in general....and going into the sweet shop with my sixpenny bit - god I feel old! My parents and sister still live in Shields. I visit fairly regularly.
thats were i am from i now live in dorset miss it like hell i used to use the jarra tunnel when i went fishing with my dad.and the pubs clubs people i miss but i am now married and taking the wife there when we get car
Born and raised in South Shields and I wish I could say i was proud of the town, but it has deteriated so much I had to leave. I am a proud Geordie, but every time I go back i realise why i left.
class video, nice to see shields in a different light. The music totally sets it of, put together well! Love it lol!! Well done mate!xx Makes me proud to be a sandancer!x
