Tsk, no chance of that. Saturday night down the toon is always erm, interesting. :crazyeyes
I'll be out until I drop!
thats the spirit..should be fun
:grump:
There's a hotel at the edge of town, in Kingston Park, for £25 a night. It's no-frills, but its quite good. Kingston Park is on the metro green line, and the last metro out there is about 2300. It's also only about £8-£10 in a cab.

The YHA hostel is in Jesmond, which is one of the trendy going out areas of town.
For many people its a shame its on a Saturday- the last train on a Friday to York and Manchester is at 0210.
For the record, I also spied a backpackers place that looks like its opening on Grainger Street, by Yates. But I could be wrong.
Sammie, come over anyway. I live here, and I'm the only one worth meeting anyway;)
Good news folks- the Bodega now has a late licence :hyper:
hehe, Think highly of yourself
Anyways, I'll find out tomorrow about me wage and if I get me full pay. I check on here to make sure it's the same date still, etc and book it online. yay.
That's the one I meant, erm, I think...how many hostels can there be on Grainger Street? It's about time there was a city centre hostel, imo.
There's always Malmaison on the Quayside, too, if anyone's got £250 burning a hole in their pocket.
ok if i win the euromillions i'll pay for everyone to stay somewhere nice, there must be a nicer one than the Malmaison tho, well im comparing to the manchester one..
Oh noes.
I am teh gutid.
I'd recommend the Hilton- it was 12 months late, so must be good.
Who fancies going to the Spencer Tunick exhibition at Baltic?
I enjoyed my stay at the Little Haven Hotel, but that's South Shields
There's later, isn't there?
I've seen a bus at 11.10 going off to Newbiggin by Sea...
If you want a bed for the night, you can have one. For the record.
Get a 4 in 8 North Country rover and do it properly! Railcard makes it £40.
Would love to do a 4 in 8 but dont have a railcard or 3 other days
I promised (threatened) KHSS with a tour of the Quayside, we have to get down there at some point!
I think the next meet should be SShields.
:cool: <--- tourist smily. I'm bringing my camera, watch out!
Fair dos.
If you want one you're welcome though.
I'm so going to have to bully, sorry, gently persuade the mason to come up too. If Bridget would be so kind too...
Definitely.
Have to put the Crown Posada on the itinerary, as well as the Eye and Baltic.
I really like Suff Sheelz. It's a nice walk on towards Marsden, it's a walk featured on Coast. And then we could ride on the ferry all day long
Really wanted to go too Next time yas plan a meet in Newcastle, I will defintely try to go so long as there's plenty of notice, etc.
Next time, hopefully.
just asking as i'm trying to work out whether or not i would be able to come
Ha, gentle persuasion...I'll bear that in mind.
Summer meet in Shields, I say, we can tour the numerous parks and see the Kappa-clad charvers in their natural state (drunk on Diamond White & Special Brew). Then off to the Grotto for a pint. :hyper:
A time would be good, it doesn't really matter to me though so I'll let someone else suggest it. Coming up here from Wales is pretty hardcore, I salute you, Jemz! :thumb:
Yay, there are some definite good photo opps (enhanced by me sticking my mug in them, obviously ). I'll remind you again to bring "the hat", it must be as well-travelled as possible...
(shall we incorporate the first meeting of the Neighbours society into the same trip?)
Psh, as if you even have to ask!
let's make badges
