Are you thinking of Toronto in New South Wales which, confusingly, is close to Newcastle?
Bishop Auckland is an attractive market town in Bobbi's part of the world (north east England), Sanmac! To the best of my knowledge, it has no connection with the city in New Zealand!
Yes we have something booked abroad for February, it was booked last spring and is somewhere on the travel corridor list. If the lockdown is lifted of course we'll go, why shouldn't we. It needs a (private) negative Covid PCR test 48 hours before boarding and another before coming home.
