You need to take me on a pub crawl, pronto. I've been here a year and I've only been to about three of them.

It's on my list

I made the mistake of going to the toilet. It was difficult having piss whilst trying not to touch anything.

haha yeah not the cleanest place on earth.

i love the fact that you get wet in there when its raining.

Hull city centre's gone rather corporate now, but a lot of the main roads just outside it have kept their character and proliferation of small shops.

Hull also has Spider's.

was there an actual recipe for that thing, or was it just a mixture of whatever was nearest to the person serving you ?

AFAIK the cocktails menu is available on the Spiders website. I would look, but I'm not really sure I want to know...

Tbh I went off Spiders a few years ago. It was making me feel old in comparison to all the legless sixteen year olds. Still a top night out, though.

other geordie gems.
Jesmond Dene
Tynemouth Station and market
Longsands
The Forth
Newcastle Arts Centre - at the bottom of westgate road, i think that's its name.
The Side

Aye RPM is still there but by the looks of things not for much longer, it was like a morgue when i was in there the other week - i heard that the charvers that smoke outside the Lane scare the students off, and as most of the music RPM cater for is for students then....
