    I'm not back in York until 24th April, and it depends on poorness, exams and termdates. Other than that, I'm in as long as we can get another Chinese!

    mmm, chilli garlic potato wedges :yum:

    If its a nice day, I propose beerage at the lovely riverside pub at the end of my street. Excellent scran there too.

    No its not, its only 20 minutes on the bus.

    And we might even have it sorted by then :lol:

    The Keelman is worth a trip, especially if its warm. Excellent ale, excellent cheap food, beer garden right by the river...

    I couldn't do May 6th either, but if the date suits I'm in. I might even moderate my drinking this time...

    nah... :p

    I don't know about Newburn, I think we should have one at the West Road Social Club...lots of old perverts and a nice big Sky Sports screen.

    How much warning would you need?

    I suggest the weekend of 13 and 14 May. It gives everyone time to book flights and trains.

    If anyone who has stayed chez Kermit before wants to again, it can be arranged.

    If I fly in on the Sunday 14th May in the morning and come home on the Monday 15th that night. Flights seem to be reasonable there.

    Scrap what I said, I got my dates confused.

    I won't be in Newcastle on the weekend 12/13/14 May. If you care about me...

    Perhaps the weekend after?

    That's the 19/20/21 May.

    Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
    Nah, not looking good with those dates.
    I was thinking of booking a flight for middle of June, for some weekend. I understand not all of yas may not suit, so I'll not be able to meet your orginal date yas arrange. But if anyone who is free in middle of June at the weekend, I'd love to meet yas.

    If you're coming over in June, any weekend would be fine for me, just not 23/24 as I'll be in Leeds watching the Who.

    How hard is it to get around New Castle without a car?

    Always wanted to go there but wouldn't drive that far, might consider a Megabus thingy though if they go there
  • Options
    Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
    Megabus do come here, direct from London. It does take seven hours though.

    GNER do bargain returns if you're flexible, starting at £20 return from London. Three hours on the train.

    It's easy to get around Newcastle without a car. Fast frequent buses and a fast, frequent underground.
