Local update 👀

Looks like Aldi UK are planning a new store on Chainbridge Road in Blaydon.

They’ve said they’ve wanted to open in Blaydon for years and are now preparing plans to submit to Gateshead Council.

So… good thing for the area or not?

And realistically — would you use it over the current supermarkets? 👇🏼

1,200 Google reviews.

4.8 star rating.

For a local taxi firm, that’s not just a number on a screen.

That’s airport runs.
Hospital appointments.
School runs.
Nights out.
Early mornings.
Late finishes.
People getting home safe.

And 1,200 times someone has taken a minute out of their day to say we done alright.

That means a lot.

Not perfect.
Not pretending to be.

Just local people, local drivers, and a team that keeps grafting every day to get it right more often than not.

Thank you to everyone who’s reviewed us, recommended us, defended us, booked us, and backed us over the years.

1,200 reviews is mad.

And we’re still just getting started 🚕

What’s a totally normal thing now that would’ve sounded mad 20 years ago? 👀

We’ll start…

Paying £4+ for a coffee ☕😅

Local update 👀

Go North East buses are currently unable to use Stella Road between The Runhead and Blaydon Bus Station due to low hanging trees damaging vehicles.

Services are diverting via Stargate Lane & the A695 until the issue is sorted.

Worth keeping in mind if you normally travel that way 🚌

Wor Ken heading off to the Newcastle United Armed Forces Supporters Club end of season black tie event at St James’ Park last night 🖤🤍

A brilliant group bringing together serving members, veterans and Newcastle fans through a shared connection to both the Armed Forces and the club.

Hope everyone had a brilliant night.

Bank holiday weekend is doing bank holiday weekend things 😅

It’s been absolutely non-stop so far — airport runs, nights out, family visits, pub runs, the lot.

So let’s have a bit of fun with it…

If you’re out and about with Local this weekend, grab a quick photo with your driver or beside the car and send it over to us.

Tell us where you’re heading and we might feature you on the page.

Maureen understood the assignment perfectly 👇🏼🚕
