    Newcastle

    Next gig, start Thur (odd day I know) big Gov. employer, no need to name easy to work out but how's it up there? Rate is cock-on, 100 miles fae home so I may well stay over one or two nights and do the Bigg Market thing, been to Newc many times on a day or an evening but never worked there. Also looking for a place to stay, B&B or summert - NE Newcastle if anyone knows anywhere!

    Why, aye!

    Actually I vaguely remember a Newcastle thread, searching now.....

      Aye! I'll be working on a HM system called 'IR35', something to do with contractors getting away with murder.

      £300 bonus for every contractor I shop!

      W00t!!

        I stayed at "The Lynnwood" aka "Bentleys" (very near to NC Utd Stadium/City Center/General Hospital) for 6 months or so. £25 for good rooms with Breakfast . Free parking as well. Rooms with shared bath also there, but not good.

              Been there with a particularly fit lass I worked with. We decided to hire a row boat on the river, and I totally freaked out - the boat was well wobbly and I couldn't row properly and she got up and wobbled the boat to take the oars I freaked out again, crying like a baby cos I really was gonna drown...

              I can't swim....

              She was pissing herself.

              Still, was the day Newc Utd lost to Liverpool and got relegated from Prem, three years ago???
