Lunch Newcastle 6th September.

Would love to meet up glass but Thursday is my yoga morning

I am flexible from Wed through to the Friday, and I think Absent was free last time I spoke, we could try another day if thats any good for you.

Wednesday would probably be good for me - but I am hesitating as our builder starts work on the house on the Monday, so not sure what'll be happening that week at the moment. Feel I can't really commit just yet, so don't let me upset your plans with Absent

That would be a shame, but we will wait to see what happens when the others see the thread.

I could probably manage Wednesday, Thursday or Friday.

Thats great harri.

glass - have checked with OH and he says no prob for Thursday as far as he is concerned. Yoga finishes at 11 and I'll have to get changed, so could hopefully make it into town sometime after midday.

moomin that's great as we wont be meeting till after 12 I would imagine by the time absent get her train through.

This sounds promising. Now all we need to do is decide where we shall meet, at what time we shall meet and where we shall have lunch. Over to those of you more familiar with Newcastle than I am, although I do know that the riverside is nice.

Over to you glass as I'm not a native Georgie and not too familiar with eating places!

Oops - meant Geordie (brain atrophy strikes again)

The list is endless China Town Stowell Street if you want Chinese or here is a selection of different tastes and styles in no particular order. But there are lots more.

Streuth, you don't do things by halves do you glass? It'll take a while to check all these websites but I shall.

absent I thought I had better stop there didnt want to bore you all but if you want more just let me know!!

Bump

Thanks for the reminder glass, the tapas bar looks good - something light for lunch? Also (assuming it's not raining and/or howling gale off the Tyne) it's in a nice spot - but I'm happy to go with the flow

Oooh tapas

As you know glass tapas goes down well with me. I also thought that The Living Room offered a good range of light and more substantial meals at fairly reasonable prices and so too did Malmaison although the choice is more limited. I'm happy to go with a majority decision.

Well I am easy I will go with the majority, as long as we can have a natter I dont care what I eat

I doubt that there will be a shortage of nattering.

Loving the sea bass at The Living Room [drool]!!!!

littenellie tapas are yummy aren't they! Pity you can't get up to N'castle

So are we anywhere near making a decision or are we all being so polite, sensitive and empathetic that we shall continue to dither until October?

Love tapas unfortunately too far for me....

Well should be do Tapas if we went to La Tasca its on the Quayside so good if we want to have a wander. I am the most indecisive person you could meet
