With the Jones family
by marimar_72
Here is my son playing at the park. When I was a child,my father sent me along with my sister to stay with a family in Darlington,The host were like another family to me.She had two boys of her own...I remember her saying that God gave her another 2 daughters(reffering to me and my sister).
I treuly loved this lady as my own mother,she always stood up for me when other kids used to tease me.
She always used to calm me down when I felt homesick.
she`s the best host I have ever stayed with.

"Home of the "Locomotion""
Darlington is the home of Robert Stephenson's famous train, "Locomotion".
"Home of the Tilly's"
Darlington is also well known on VT for being the home of VT members Steve and Susan Tilly!
Darlington was my point of arrival for the "Tilly Tour" of the North East of England :-0 Over the weekend of Aug 20-22nd I would explore the railway museum and town of Darlington and then have a personally tailored, escorted tour of Scarborough, Whitby, Durham and Newcastle - so I hope you'll follow my other adventures in the North East too.
