Lord Bracknell said:Roz and I are flying from Gatwick to Newcastle on the 1545 flight on Wednesday. Returning on Sunday (arrive back at 1855). More expensive, but it cuts out the hassle of getting to and from Stansted or Heathrow.
Car hire at Newcastle Airport, accommodation in Newcastle City Centre, Whitley Bay just down the road. Two football matches. It's a grand holiday.
If people want cheap boozing in Middlesbrough, I would recommend the pubs on the Teesside University campus. Dirt cheap and within walking distance of the town centre (as indeed is the Riverside Stadium).
Does anyone know where the Albion are staying? We should invite a few players along to an NSC piss up.
Oh good.
There will be about five of us on your floor then.
