Gateshead - Would you?

[Churchill]

Ok, just got off the 'phone to an agent who's recruiting permies for a role in Gateshead...

Pro's and Cons please.

I'll start with a Pro...

Could go out on the piss with SA at the weekends...

It will be cheap!

[DimPrawn]

It's through an agent, it's a permie job and it's in Gateshead.

Apart from that, it's two thumbs up from me.

[EternalOptimist]

Would you move there, big-fella ?

[realityhack]

Question: Does the rate mean you'll afford to be out on the toon every night having an absolute blast?

If yes, it's a no-brainer.

Take a warm, waterproof coat with you.

And you will stand out like a sore thumb, only poof's wear coats in the North East

[cojak]

Yeah, it's illegal north of Bolton, from what I've heard...

[Tingles]

Near the Norf sea, bracing...

I was up there for 18 months recently - not bad as long as you can stand the weekend trips back home.

I know a couple of other contractors who travelled back to Cambridge and Colchester - a bit of a pain but do-able.

Not Gateshead itself but there are some nice places around that area...

I'm back in Manchester now. I've worked in Newcastle before now but if it's a permy role we'd have to move.
