MY mother, sister and I were lucky enough to see Dolly Parton at the Metro Radio Arena, in Newcastle.

It was simply a joy to hear Dolly sing and everyone seemed to really enjoy themselves. For three hours, we could forget our problems and worries and just listen to a legend sing.

Thank you Dolly for bringing us an evening of pure enjoyment. One I will never forget.
