As I'm off uni for three weeks over Easter I decided to drag my twentieth birthday out over a good few days.
You can see what I got up to on my actual birthday here and what I got up to this weekend well I'll tell you right now.
Me and my boyfriend Zac decided on a nice night away to Newcastle, nothing fancy just a little break (I say not fancy but the hotel looked like a palace from outside).
We stayed at The Copthorne Hotel which looks right out onto Newcastle Quayside.
We requested a high room which is exactly what we got, you can't get any higher than top floor.
The room was spotless- apart from the little spider that decided to crawl across my pillow but it was definitely worth more than what we paid (£85). Tea and Coffee facilities, dressing gowns and slippers provided and also Freeview televsion.
The only down side that I would mention was the noise of the metro travelling past. The bar was also below us which we thought may have been a problem but it wasn't.
Check in/out was fine but had to stand in a queue for a while.
Me and Zac would definitely recommend the hotel. We will probably going back ourselves when we go and see Busted in May.
What we got up to
First, we went for a walk to the City centre, it was a slight treck up a hill but that's just because I'm completely unfit.
We went for lunch at Byron Burger and it was deeeee-licious. Fresh burgers and sweet potato fries, my fave! Although, I thought I would try a mocktail and it came out with celery in it and was completely tomato juice. I hate tomato's. My mistake.
Sorry about the snapchat pics and bad spelling. How unprofessional of me.
We had a look around the shops and I literally only came away with one thing. A suede dress from Hollister (which I've never been in before). I'll feature it in an upcoming post.
Then we pretty much chilled for a bit before we went out for tea at Pitcher and Piano. I usually love the place however the food really wasn't up to standards.
Especially after having the most delicious food at Byron.
Gristly sausages weren't what I ordered, we didn't make a fuss just paid and left. I'd go back but most likely only for drinks.

Sorry about the in shot razor.

The next day we visited The Great British Cupacakery to try one of their Geet Big Shakes. I had a Canny Caramel and Zac had the Belta Blackout. They were hugeeeee and far to sickly to drink/eat the full thing. I gained 10 pound just looking at the thing.
And from there it was home time!
I had a fabulous time and can't wait to go again.
Newcastle is such a lovely place, I wouldn't mind actually living there.
