Hi Folks,

Union Rooms - very good.

Bridge- fair.
Tilleys - fair.
Yates - fair.
Today, I was in the Milecastle (on the corner of Grainger Street and Westgate Road, opposite St Johns Church) This is very good.
There is also a Pub/cafe in Central Station along from the Metro which is quite good

Any date after mid-October, any day - - not too late, midday onwards Not fussed about what if any food available, can't drink for medical reasons but happy to watch others! Children n/a, wheelchair no but disabled parking preferable yes so out of central Newcastle might be a bit easier for me but not vital.

1. October, November, December or next year? - to suit everyone else

2. A Weekday or a Saturday? - definitely a Saturday, but not a match day

3. Approx time of day? - some time from 11am onwards

4. A pub that serves food? - not bothered. There's a Greggs around every corner.

5. A non alcoholic venue? - no

6. A place where children are allowed? - no

7. Wheelchair access? - not for me, but for anyone else who needs it

Just let me know

I would love to go, but Oct Nov will definitely be out as my transplant will be Oct/Nov, and it will be a couple of months after that before I will be able to go out to play.probably Dec and January too as I shan't be able to be further than an hour away from the hospital, and may not be allowed into crowded places until around Feb, anyway. What a stinker!!!

Never mind, I hope you all have loads of fun xxxxx *sobs*

Love

Daff xxxxx

Morning Daffers, lovely to see you posting. Indeed what a stinker that you will miss this one. But all being well, you will be better enough for next years Peterborough. Wow, those sunstroke photo's. I see you have not lost you sense of humour.
Get better soon

Sorry have been a bit busy.
I think a Saturday is going to be the best day. Mau is going to look at Wetherspoon's Union Rooms in Westgate Road, Newcastle. at the end of the week, all being well with her. I may be going away for a week so wont be able to go with her, but trust her judgement Lol.

Is there anyone who needs more than 3 or 4 weeks notice?
I will go check when Newcastle are playing at home and put the alternate Saturday dates down on the thread.

Is it too early to make a little list of all that that may be able to come?
