25 Problems Only People From Morpeth Will Understand

19. Having The Most Pointless Shopping Centre In The Civilised World

Sanderson Arcade. Why? If you are under the age of 65 and like to wear clothes when you leave the house, you are forced to shop far and away from Morpeth as seemingly every single shop in the town is aimed at menopausal women. They're in your face no matter which way your turn. Peth looked to be finally 'getting down with the kids' as a game changing shopping centre was promised. However, what we got was the only shopping centre in the world that doesn't really have any shops in it. Yes, there are a couple of phone shops, coffee shops and Fat Face, but nothing that will appease the shopaholic in you. Yet again, you are forced onto the 518 and into Newcastle in what is the most vicious of cycles. At least they make the security guards dress like they belong in a Roald Dahl spectacular, which gives you something to laugh at.
