Sisters beds for kids in the sun A LOVE of life in the sun runs in Helen Watson’s family. Her sister Angela also moved to the Balearics, after travelling the world on cruise ships, and set up the Geordie Pride in Majorca.

The pub, which is decorated in black and white, gives Toon fans a chance to watch Newcastle United matches while enjoying a cold bottle of Newcastle Brown.

The sisters’ mum Isabella, 78, still lives in Walker, but spends a lot of her time island-hopping between Majorca and Ibiza.

She says her daughters got their adventurous spirits from their father. Isabella’s late husband James was a joiner who travelled a lot with his work.

SCHOOLCHILDREN donned flat caps and carried protest banners as they recreated a famous piece of Tyneside history.

Around 30 children from Bede Burn Primary School, in Jarrow, South Tyneside, walked in the footprints of the original Jarrow marchers of more than 70 years ago.

Braving the autumn weather, just like the original crusaders, the Year Two youngsters marched from Jarrow town centre to their school, in Dene Terrace.

The trek brought to an end a seven-week history project during which the children pontoons carried out internet research, explored family trees and made banners as they delved into the story of the protest march.

Class teacher Christine Woods said: “The children imagined what it would be like on the original march. They wrote letters back home, as though they were taking part in the march.”

The Jarrow March saw 200 unemployed men marching to London in October 1936 to demand work for the town.
