Fog was draped like a damp grey veil around the Tyne Bridge today. This photo was taken at lunchtime. Newcastle is not an especially foggy place, but a well known song called Fog on The Tyne was recorded by local group Lindisfarne whose album of the same name reached No. 1 in the UK album charts in 1972. Newcastle United footballer Paul Gascoigne released a version of the song in 1990 which reached number two in the UK singles chart.
