Hello My Dear Readers.
Graham and I saw Paul McCartney live n Newcastle!
It was fantastic!
We watched a brilliant show of his last Glastonbury concert and thought how wonderful he was and how disappointingly we would never get to see him live. I thought he would be to old to travel to Australia again, But here you go... Bless him.
He is so agile for an 81 year old and he still has his voice. II guess he travel's with a personal trainer , voice coach and physio. (doctor, nurse, chef etc).

Most of these photos are mine, with a couple borrowed from the web.
We were 5 rows from the front, although the seats weren't as good as when we saw Elton.
We were at the far edge of the stage, and further back because of the fireworks.
