    Tall Ships???

    Anyone been down yet? Has anyone used to the bus link from Gateshead yet? Really want to take the bairn down tonight, at 5, not for the fireworks, but want to know how busy it's going to be, and how often the bus link is, etc

    the bus runs every 10 minutes.

    its going to be rammed, last 2 days you couldn't move and this is the big one - takes 10 minutes to cross the bridge..

    worth it though the kids will love looking at the boats and you'll love looking at the sailors.

    I'd make sure you get a metro into town, went shopping on Monday and took ages to find a parking space

    They had closed off the whole of Warners car park aswell for some reason

    Firworks start at 10.25 tonight going off from 4 seperate locations along the quayside:)

    Was on news this morning, they advise you to get down few hours earlier to guarantee a place:p

    And as for the quaylink buses I wouldn't bother. They are free at the moment but are sooooo busy and I took me 35 moins to get from Gateshead Metro to Gateshead Quays:eek: I so should have walked:rolleyes:
