QUIRKY WORLD: Man writes five-star review after week on bridge

ENGLAND: A fathers’ rights campaigner has written a five-star TripAdvisor review of his accommodation after spending more than a week 55m up the Tyne Bridge.

Simon Anderton, 56, scaled the Newcastle landmark on Father’s Day and plans to spend another week with just the noisy gulls for company.

During his stay, Anderton, from Heaton, Newcastle, wrote a tongue-in-cheek online review of the “draughty” accommodation which he praises for its central location and “spectacular views”.
