    There's an excellent kebab place in Newcastle - went there recently for a girly weekend and we finished the night at about 2 in the morning...desperately hungry and cold :eyecrazy (no coats is a rule up there), totally lost and searching for our hotel, when, suddenly just around a corner was loud music - Eminem type stuff and the smell of fresh kebab wofting towards us - we followed our noses and ended up in this really groovy place - it was like a heaven - really big with all types of food served, places to sit and hard - core music (which actually seemed to work really well).
    Once we'd fueled up, we stepped out and the hotel was just down the street :baby - mmmmmmm heaven!!!

    Raffaz, correct me if I am wrong but by the description from our lovely MCP here, I reckon she was in Munchies by Eldon Gardens, but thats hardly likey if the hotel was down the road and I cant think of any hotels nearby there. If you can let us know (doubt u would remember anyway) the hotel Leehaa...

    Thats exactly what i was thinking, but ya know how it is when ya mortal and think the hotel is just down the road but its really miles away, but ya cant remember coz ya were to pissed . . . .:)

    Thinking about it tho, there is a hotel on Newgate street called quality hotel, and that is "down the road"

    .... http://www.ichotelsgroup.com/h/d/ex/1/en/hotel/ncljb?_requestid=915693

    That's where we were, but it'd be good to find out exactly how close that is to the place you think we were - lol. (It doesn't show the gardens on the map!)

    Well we were near to the shopping centre, and Tiger Tiger springs to mind?!? - or was that when we did Manchester?? :eek: , but we went to loads of places and missed the Quayside (which was our original intention)
    We ended up in a club too - it was quite hard core stuff - was it in the "Life centre".....

    Erm, that's about all I can summon up from the night :blink

    Yeah, well it's be good to get some recommendations from the locals :-)
