    wahey, now we're getting somewhere, dates & locations :p ... If i have money i would be able to come, March 4th hmm... depends on other things though, might have spent all my money by then though ;) ( and after checking train times & prices it'd only be £19 both ways. Nice. I could be very tempted to come

    This is the 15.22 First Bollocks service to Scarborough, calling at Warrington Central, Birchwood, Manchester, Stalybridge, Huddersfield, Dewsbury, Leeds, Cross Gates, garforth, east garforth, york, malton, seamer and scarborough. this train is approximately 76 minutes late, due to the wrong type of train operator.

    Liverpool trains don't run to Newcastle anymore lololllololol.

    I shall update the map just for JsT.

    I also propose we all go to the Ho Buffet for scran.
    I think there is an early morning one that does do the whole lot, like there is one that starts at Filey for some reason!

    You should be tempted to come.

    There's loads of trains to Edinburgh, and that means loads of cheapo seats. Look at cheapo seats for both GNER and Vermin.

    I have a misguided preference for Mangos, myself. Only because it's always open when I need it at 1am. :p

    Am looking forward to this, though maybe it should be named "Newcastle Pub Crawl and Chinatown binge". Or something.

    I always think Lau's is the best. It's where we go, very tasty.

    Could go to Curry Capital on the Bigg Market and have a Viz Special:)

    Definitely.

    And then we can go to Sam Jacks and be on Metro Radio :lol:

    Now you're talking! Though I think I'll pass on Curry Hell.... :lol:

    As for Sam Jacks, can I take this opportunity to propose avoiding The Gate(s of Hell) and surrounds for the duration? :nervous:

    You mean you don't want to spend the whole evening dodging the vomit slicks and half-eaten "burgers" on Newgate Street?

    Why ever not?

    Well, now you put it like that... I don't know why I ever spend time anywhere else. :lol:

    You can't forget the neon-orange hen nights/21st/40th parties etc, all completely shitfaced by 8pm and slobbering over the closest Sid the Sexist or crying into their Sex on the Beach.

    I thought this might be a good laugh, so I just checked train tickets. £54 return!! So that completely counts me out, haha.

    :nervous:

    So far I'm booked in for two separate hens nights out doon tha toon, both on the 18th March...

    Heh, sounds fun - as long as they aren't themed (and conflictingly so) like cops and robbers or cowboys and indians... :chin:

    Though that would make for some slightly more comical scrapping in the Bigg Market after hours. :p;)

    Go from Manchester Picc instead.

    If you have a railcard you can get it for £20 return ish. www.tpexpress.co.uk

    I was searching from Manchester Picc originally, although it's the same price from either there or Stockport.

    When I did a quote, it still came up with £54... and I don't have a railcard. Gutted!
