Just arrived in Newcastle. Final weather report - calm, no winds, no snow, nothing.

A brief flurry of snow in Newcastle. The sun is shining now.

Sat in bristol airport , flights are now taking off, just hope mine at 17:15 still goes, if not back in the car and drive up, anyone out in newcastle tonight?

[Rex]

Yep. No firm plans other than remembering where the hotel is.

[bobby1413]

Anyone recommend good drinking places?

For tonight and also match day too...

Sat in the Pitcher and Piano for a chilling beer at the mo.

[bobby1413]

Where is good tonight?

I may go to Tup Tup palace at about 1030 as it sounds pretty cool

How rich are you?

[old woman]

Going to match tomorrow as long as train from Reading bringing family and tickets is ok.

11 miles from Newcastle, not much snow but quite icy now.-1C

[Royals and Racers]

Snowing really heavily just down the road in Sunderland(channel 212 SKY)

Pah. 2 pints and I was off out looking elsewhere.

[JayRoyal]

30 Miles south of Newcastle and we've just started getting medium snow, its starting to lay too now

[parky]

Have got a train back home from Swansea. To go up by car tomorrow morning, should be a good trip

[bobby1413]

Avoid Tiger Tiger - it's shiit

Snow was heavier earlier. No where near anything to worry about. 1inch light snow on the ground.

(And I'm drunk)

[parky]

Avoid Tiger Tiger - it's shiit

That's an important lesson for anywhere in the country and for life.

[bobby1413]

Still not sure where to go for pre-match drinks today, I read football ground guide and it mentioned oneills and weatherspoons.

Maybe Sam jacks or this greys place?

(EDIT: greys is a night club!)

[old woman]

There are 5 Wetherspoons in Newcastle. Sam Jacks is a topless totty/drinking games type pub. Depends what you like

[Chuckle Brother]

Flying from Southampton seemed like a great idea when it was booked.

Having spent 5 hours there yesterday and now sitting on my sofa, perhaps it wasn't.
