OK there is a possibility i am heading south of the border for a few days tosunny Newcastle area who knows the good watering holes?

the cluny under byker bridge if you like a good selection of beers and some music if you want to pop in and see a band too,not compulsory tho you can just enjoy the ale.id keep away from the city centre all the chav's and office woppers are out having there xmas do's...not a pretty site..tim from accounts giving it the bigg one cause he's had 2pints..

good beer and a good crowd..

Newcastle Outlets The Cluny
 
dont know that either will post when i find out
try to get a b&b in jesmond,plenty around,then you will be sorted,loads of bars and places to eat,student area(posh ones) and footballers, nice place,just down the road from newey's too..
 
Whatever you do, STAY AWAY from Whites Hotel in Jesmond. Unless you like the smell of urine, showering in cold water, food poisoning and electrical hazards
 
Jesmond Dene is on my list of if i have to stay some where it will be there!!

Nights out! depends what your after! get a local pub with no snotty office workers as already discussed prior! is the Central still open near tyne bridge??

i had many of good nights along the quay side and bigg market!

also heard the Trent is canny place..! (up near St James Park) but as others have said! JESMOND is the place to pick a nice student or too up!! bit posh for the usual chav office crowd!
 
have you had an bad time there trev
Worked there doing maintenance mate, lasted a week. The final straw was them expecting me to replace a socket but not allowing me to isolate the circuit.
Tools in box, box in car, Trev waving bye bye:)
 
the central has been done up recently,its no longer full of alcy's and prozzies, proper crowd now..the bigg market and quayside id give a swerve mate..full of knacka's..the trents good as is the strawberry if you want to have a geek at the temple of football..:D

i was thinking it was a night with pippa owa the tyne like..:hand:
 
hahaha..! alcys and prozzies are the way to go man!! u could always jump a bus and enjoy the **** hole thats called whitley bay!!
 
If you want a **** hole there's always the brunny in shields hehe but even that's been done out recently
 
Don't know about the stripper upgrade mate I've not been in in years but the Dolly is still a good pint as is the steamboat
 
I was up in the toon a week last Friday, TGI's for grub and then tiger tiger. Women dressed up in sexy Santa outfits were good but the rest of it was pants. As above full Xmas parties, paying to get in most places and drinks arnt cheap. Bigg market for me next time.
 
paul you did try and start a fight in town though didnt you!

No, the knob end started on me when I was by myself! Amazing how big he is with a few p1ssed up mates egging him on and its amazing how quickly he shut up once my mate came back from the toilet, six foot, black and physically fit (he is the nicest lad you'll ever meet). A few choice words sorted out the situation.

Durham stop making me out to be a trouble maker. You know me better than that.
 
Pig and Whistle!! now thats an entirely different kettle of Chav!!

Paul you are a raging nutjob...!! i saw the way you ransacked Storey carpets in durham. poor shop manager was litteraly forced to sign the compliance and acceptance letter and you though bishop auckland was a friendly place to live...!! serious issues my friend!

and you had issues with Durham house.... one of the friendliest places to stay in lowfell...!
