Carlisle away - general stuff about the day

[fitz]

who is actually going to this one? imagine its probably less than planned to go initially but thought I'd put the feelers out to see where everyone is drinking etc. We'll probably all be meeting at the Union Rooms (spoons) at Newcastle Central around 9 but if there is a bar that has become a popular option over West side it'd be good to see some of you guys there

I arrive into Carlisle at 10.53am .... any suggestions where I should head to Fitz ??

if you want something to eat and drink just come out of the station, pass the taxis up to the main road straight ahead. turn right round the pub at the corner and there is a spoons not too far along that road (Botchergate) or takeaways nearer to the clubs further down

No you won't. Nottingham will be arriving on the same train as you and I will be leaving the station by the back entrance to avoid the lot of you.

pair of gays, until you are entirely blue there is no need for gloves. saying that, Leicester was boiling in comparison to Rowlands Gill on Saturday so it may be an idea to bring a couple of spare blankets

Look....I wear my cardi and a scarf even in the summer as I'm always bloody cold!

Us London Branchers are taking advantage of the fine facilities offered by the County Hotel in Carlisle ( and a rip-roaring curry house Sat'day night as well).
