Codhead here. I have now flopped over to West Yorkshire, however.

Hullfag here (for the next week anyway).

IT'S SHITE BEING IN MIDDLESBROUGH.

>>636
OP here.
I live in stockton-on-tees.

Harrogate, so I pretty much shit on all you council estate scumbags.

Expatriated Yarm-ite here. I took a Southern ex there once. He asked where all the black people were.

>>638

Come come. You and I know that Harrogate harbours a considerable population of ratboys.

Grimsby.

>>648
Grimsby is Lincolnshire, not the North East. It's like Yorkshire-lite

Leeds

what's the cheapest way of getting from middlesbrough to leeds (or anywhere else nice in the NE?)

>>651

It's featured on the map, so my misleading stems from there.

>>638
Fuck yeah Harrogate buddy!!!

I'm more north-east then any of you yorkshire fags, you aren't even in the north-east. Posh twats.

>>660
Yorkshire? Posh?

wat

>>654
Walking.

Live in Stockton, work in Thornaby. I'm shocked there are so many people on .gs from round these parts actually.

I hate the North, so very much. Anyone up for a pint and a trip to Akbars?

>>665
don't tempt me.

>>665
I'm not sure whether we'd really get on well together, i'm 18 and look like one of the beatles.

>>668

I am 20 and was told yesterday that I have hair like Ringo. Needs a major cut and style, roll on payday.

I still haven' been to Akbars since it opened; heard good things about it though.

>>669
Ha, i'm not out much down Middlesbrough so i don't really know all the good places. The crown is an emo-fest.

Who the fuck starts a mosh pit to fall out boy? These people do.

>>670

the metal room in the cornerhouse on a Friday night is superior, if you're into that sort of thing. It's also well stocked with delicious indie and the tarts who go with that; perfect for a dirty scenester like me.

>>672
I listen to almost anything.
Current playlist includes ready to die, men in black, mr blue sky, good vibrations and dreaming of you.

Quite varied.

>>673
I've never heard of that stuff before. More information please.

Fucking sumo. Despite its awesome reputation, it'll be a cold day in hell that I dish out £5 for a nightclub. I don't care how many rooms it has, it won't have an avant garde or instrumental tech metal room.

Geordie here. The most North-east you can get withoot being in the sea, Scotland, or the middle of nowhere.

Anyone used to go to Blaises? Those were the days, my friends.

It reopened as "Blazers" a few years ago. It was right shit.

Hullllllllllllllllll

Im pretty close to berwick...

>>677

I'm currently living in Newcastle. I miss Liverpool an awful lot.

I've been to Scarborough a couple of times. It's fucking depressing.

Morpeth, 20 minutes north of Newcastle. Quiet little place.

>>896

Morpeth... are you new here? What is Woolworth now?

I lived in Newcastle for a couple of decades, I now live and study in Leeds. I think anything south of Darlington should really be classed as the south, or at least the midlands. These people are most certainly not northern, though there's about 3 Greggs to every person here, so perhaps I am being uncharitable. Everyone who was born here seems to insist they're midlanders too though.

Home is in North-East (Near Newcastle), studying elsewhere though. Coming back for the Fenwicks Christmas window display.

>>912

It's worth seeing this year, there's a huge Monty Python joke in the first panel

It's never dull in 'ull

>>930
Well said.
Are you a student or a native?

>>928

Ahh mate I just quickly walked past it the other week and missed it, I guess its something to do with the life of Brian. What was it?

Hull? Grimsby? Huddersfield?

Anything south of Scotch Corner is Southern England to me.

I'm a Southerner in York. My life revolves around avoiding the buses as I can never communicate with the driver.

I hate the North. The girls are so fucking hot, and they have this cockiness about them when talking to a bloke from the South. Drives me insane, because I want to shag all of them when I hear the accents; particularly those of Sheffield, Yorkshire (just about), and Newcastle.

All my exs are from the north. :(.

But yeah, Berwick is a nice place.

Newcastle/Wallsendfag here, but originally from near Embra.

Scunthorpe.

>>954

I like any towns with cunt in it.

>>952

I didn't think I'd ever see another person who'd even heard of wallsend on here. Well done!

I'm reading this thread in the voice of geoffrey boycott

>>958
Thank you. Emperor Hadrian approves!

Wetherbyfag reporting in!

>>958
Wallsend you say?
I used to live there

Another from Newcastle, here.
God I love the International market at the moment.

>>928

Ahh romans go home

Am I the only one representing Sunderland?

Is Sheffield north enough to count?

>>1053
It might be. But is it east enough to count?

>>1053

No, there's a Yorkshire thread for that.

>>636
tell me about it
middlesbrough is a shit hole but the parmos are good ;D
admiral coolhair reporting in.
any good irl raids on soon?

>>654

Whippet

>>654

The Megabus.

I wouldn't call Leeds 'nice', mind, though I suppose if you live in boro everything seems nice...

Goolefag here, though I'd rather not be.

NEfags, I hope you can help me.

There's a cracking band (dysrhythmia) on at the trillian.

Do I need to buy tickets beforehand? What's the best way of getting up there from middlesbrough for the 15th of june?

>>1244

By the trillian do you mean Trillians, the pub/club thing in Newcastle? If so you'll be able to pay on the door and they don't really mind if they're overbooked (though they probably won't be)

The best way to get here, if you don't have access to a car, is the train. It'll probably cost about £8 each way but don't hold me to that. There's a normal bus, the X10, that goes from boro concourse to Newcastle too. It's dead cheap.

>>1246
ta mate. £13 return train ticket. Although the fucker says "redcar to newcastle" but the woman who sold me told me it was ok.

I hope you turn up, it might be a free show.

Anyone here?

>>1175
Don't blame you.

REDCAR!

god fucking damnit. I've been living here for about 4 years. Moved back after some things fell though, and now, every day police cars go past my window with the klaxons blaring and just now, I heard a chopper fly by.

Middlesbrough would be pretty good if it wasn't for the non existent music scene, chavs everywhere and shittons of crime.

Barnsley here, small down near Leeds and Sheffield. Feels bad, lads.

>>1313

I'm from Cramlington, a town which makes no fucking sense at all and that none of you will ever have heard of, much less been too.

All the nice bits are in the middle and you're beleaguered by chavs and scum on every which side. Also the scum can't afford knives so a while back a few cases were reported of people being stabbed with sharpened screwdrivers.

Whey. Fuck this shit. At least it's not Blyth.

>>1363

I've heard of Cramlington, I was going to say I was offended you would challenge my local knowledge, but the only reason I know it exists is because there's a bus around here that goes there. Nobody's ever been, it could well be a place the bus company had made up until you came along, like Throckley. All the buses go there too but I suspect nobody lives there.

>At least it's not Blyth.

I can't count the amount of times I have said that to myself.

I'm in Dewsbury for the next few days.

>>1363
I'm sure Cramlington was only put there to mark the end of the A19.
Newcastle (Or rather Whitley Bay) reporting here.

>>1370

No, people do live here! I'm one of them. Alright, not by CHOICE, but... at least I can drop into newcastle whenever I feel like. Even if we don't have a sodding metro, we havea train at least.

Not being Blyth is the best thing about everywhere else in the world; it is just that shit.

>>1380

Maybe. But it's kind of like marking the end of a war with a celebratory holocaust.

>Grimsby

Grimsby, right here.
Sadly.

>>1416
Fucking codhead.

>>/b/169332
Things are heating up, but we might have the most fucked up take out food ever.

Thornabronx!

>>1419
>take out

Scunthorpelad.

It's either here or Shepherds Bush, and I don't feel like living with two Aussie birds supernumerary to the one I'm boffing.

>>1688
Point to Scunthorpe on the OP's map.
gb2Lincolnshire, lad.

>>1692
If Grimsby is on the map then won't Scunny be?

>>1693
Actually, I just looked and it's on the outside of the little bend next to Grimsby. So, no, as it happens.

am frem Ashington

Quite surprising, was not expecting this many people. /map/ meetup at Akbars?
Also, >>1254
Several months in the future, but I'm an undergrad there.

>>632
Monkey hanger reporting it.

Wanting to get the fuck out of here, hopefully either York or Newcastle.

>>1704

I'm from Cumbria but study at Newcastle.

I know both Derrick Bird and Raoul Moat by two degrees of separation.

Hello cunts.

I'm moving to Leeds in a week.

What the hull are you thinking?

Could anyone tell me about the relative worths of the art galleries of Newcastle? I'm visiting this Saturday and want to know what my priorities should be. The 'Tyne and Wear Museums' page wasn't as helpful as I'd hoped.

>>1874

The Laing is usually alright, the Baltic is impressive, though it depends on the installations, and the Biscuit Factory is a load of wankers trying to sell you their shit sculptures.

Do the first two, I imagine you'll have time for both. Baltic first, I'd say.

in stockton also OP near north tees hospital, got a gf with her own place awesome, waiting to join the navy as a medical assistant hopefully not waiting too long, would be ideal being able to get some experience as a volunteer with the hospital paramedic side

yup I'm from Gateshead

>>1907
Contain your posts to one thread!
ALso, who's the averageatbest looking blurry chick?

oh shes a girl from Gateshead I know was wondering if anyone reconised her

>>1909
>reconised
Come on now.
You should also use punctuation andemploy your shift key from time to time...

lol umm okayyyy

>>1911
It's not big and it's not clever.

>>1907

Is there... is there something wrong with you?

>>1917
There's bound to be, she's from Gateshead after all.

>>1918

Very true.

>>944
>>1710

Ey up Yorklads. We should do a regional meet, probably in this pub.

>>944
I'm from Notts/Lincs, got on a bus in Leeds once, and the driver couldn't understand me and asked if I was foreign. I'm from fucking 50 miles away, christ.

This seems as good a place to post this as any:

I've been in Newcastle-upon-Tyne for a whole semester now and I keep noticing the word "GRUE" written on walls all over the place.

What does it mean? Is it an acronym? Person?

I live in Sandyford and have noticed it around here and Byker.

>>1962
Probably just a tagger's pseudonym. A quick Googling shows it could mean a number of things but with this being the work of a graffiti artist you can't rule the possibility out that they just thought it up themselves because it sounds cool.

>>1962
Baddie monsters from Zork. Ah, memories...

>>1962
Poly or Posh?

>>1979
Poly.

Not sure if Newcastle Uni is really 'posh' though. I'd have reserved that label for Durham... They have lectures and accomodation in a castle.

>>1962

It is dark. You are likely to be eaten by a GRUE.

>>2054

Newcastle uni is, apparently, full of poshos, the ones who are only really going for the 'experience' and presumably because their parents will it, so they choose a uni that is far, far out of Daddy's line of sight and is in a city well reputed to be a 'jolly good night out what'.

I read it in the Indy so it's probably true.

>>2056
The only people I know at Newcastle are engineering students, and they're all there so they can pick up a chartered engineer's salary.

Do you have a link to the article you read? Sounds interesting.

>>2057

Ah, bollocks, it was a Times article, now behind the paywall. Sorry.

>>2062
That's a shame. I don't know many Newcastle students. Many are reticent when they find out I'm from Northumbria.

>>2056
It's true. Newcastle Uni is absolutely stocked to the gills with poshos.

Hull.

Yet another Newcastle fag here

another Geordie here
well gateshead but still !
we should all get drunk !

Teesside Fag here but live in Germany with the army

Hexham here. I doubt there are any .gs lads closer than Newcastle.

Londonlad currently in Manchester but heading to boro tomorrow afternoon.

Born and raised in the pit villages near Peterlee, now unfortunately living in Hull for work.

I miss home.

Another Hullfag here, surprised by the amount!

Went to Uni in Newcastle for a year, back at Hull's now.

>>2185
Blackhall?

Geordiefag here. I'm next to the city centre.

>>632
I've always separated Yorkshire into North/South/East/West. This 'north-east' category is an absolute nightmare in the online-dating scene. I'm in Brid and I'm grouped in with Leeds. Leeds is swarming with online-daters, but they are all too far for me. Gumtree is the same, most of the accommodation for York is actually in Leeds.

I don't believe the amount of Teessiders on this board

>>2428

Fuck all else to do.

HOWAY THE LADS

>>2429

they're from the uni. I used to be one of them.
