Meeting up in Newcastle
« on: May 15, 2013, 11:40:41 AM »
Hi everyone,

Who wants to meet in Newcastle. I will be there the whole day. Arrive around 02.00 (night of Friday to Saturday), so will sleep a little longer in the morning first.

Someone knows a good place where we can meet? If possible a pub-kind of thing where we can have some food and drinks.

Is walking or by cab the only way to get to the venue?

It's not really far from the city centre, and only a few minutes by cab, so that won't cost you that much. I suppose there are busses too, but never tried it

I don't really know Newcastle that well, so I'm afraid I can't help, The places we eat when we go shopping there are more central, and so further away from the Metro Arena.
