    Free Parking in and around town.

    I'm going to play an extra for Goal tomorrow, and I need to be in town between 2 and 12(midnight). There's no way I'm paying that many hours worth of parking tax, and I can't get the bus home.

    What time does the metro finish? Is it worth leaving my car at West Jesmond metro station and getting the metro from ST James'/Monument to there at midnight or are there any streets/areas that you can reccomend trying?

    Last metro from St. James is 11.30pm, but you can walk down to Haymarket/Monument, and from midnight there's one every 4-5mins (12am, 12.04, 12.10, 12.18, 12.21, 12.27, 12.30)..the last being 12.30am. They all terminate around S. Gosforth but they'll get you to West Jesmond :up:

    Though I also say go to Smile :D

    :cool:

    Yogi, bear in mind I'm young and vulnerable - would it be wise to walk across town into Jesmond at midnight on a Monday night when there's violent drunks like Revel out on the prowl?

    over tyne bridge from gateshead, turn past warners, next set of lights, hang a left, past the harley garage and look for some council flats car parks. Free and only 5 mins walk to town. 8 mins if u walk as slow as me. 9 mins if i'm having a tab and trying to struggle over the foot bridge.
