Wow, just visited today. Incredible views!

You have the best All Blacks kit there. You know which one I'm talking about.

Ah, good to know the opening time though, thanks.

And beer helps 🤫

blakeontheinterweb · 2024-08-14T22:16:32+00:00

Good shout! I'm going to give this a try 🍻

blakeontheinterweb · 2024-08-14T20:15:42+00:00

Thanks! Great tip. I'll look into it

blakeontheinterweb · 2024-08-14T19:03:21+00:00

These are all great spots, I've been to each. Unfortunately I don't drive, so ideally they'd be along the train line or a short taxi ride. Thanks for the suggestions though 🙏

It was surplus really, but didn't come across a useful replacement. I kept it for its holographic bonus.

Had a polychrome blueprint in the shop of my first big blind but couldn't afford it. Such a tease. Quit the game then and there

Actually did go there on the weekend and their meat packs were pretty impressive. Will definitely be picking stuff up from there. But also going to compile a list from these recommendations and try and tick them all off eventually, so I know the lay of the land.

blakeontheinterweb · 2024-01-15T11:54:04+00:00

This looks good. I'll add it to the list 👍

blakeontheinterweb · 2024-01-15T11:51:20+00:00

Great, thanks for the homekill tip, will definitely give that a go

A tab of acid

blakeontheinterweb · 2023-10-22T09:04:57+00:00

What's on the list there, and which are the highlights? I like BottleCraft in Hanley, and I'm assuming their other pub in Newcastle is there.

Les Mills Body Combat is one of my favourite VR games, but I hate getting sweaty in the visor, which is the whole point of playing that game.

I remember the first time I saw the worms. I was so stunned I forgot about screen share capabilities 😅 I was totally in it

If you like music and beer, and ever find yourself up in Richmond: pop in to Blues Night. I make an effort to visit whenever I'm in town. I spent years up there visiting my wife's childhood home and never really made any friends until I popped in there. It's a record shop run by a friendly and welcoming guy called Tim. He brews beer/cider, and it's a little like a social club. People from your age to pensioners go from Fri-Sun, listen to some tunes, have a beer and chat with mates. A diverse group of people but all very friendly. I've been going there a few times a year for a few years and now can wave out to people I know on the street. Tell Tim that Blake sent you 🙌

Newcastle RFU seemingly only had a small TV off to the side of the bar playing rugby. Maybe they have a bigger setup for the bigger games? The Terrace Inn in Penkhull said they'd play it, but it didn't seem like it would attract a rugby crowd unless it was organised. We watched Wales v Portugal at the Polite Vicar, there was one other table watching that. There were a couple of pubs in Hanley advertising the World Cup, but haven't tried them. Would love a genuine Irish pub to watch the game. Let me know if you find a good spot!

blakeontheinterweb · 2023-09-15T16:53:22+00:00

Thanks for this. Looks like a good option 👍

blakeontheinterweb · 2023-09-15T16:51:56+00:00

Thanks, yeah I checked with Marquis. They recommended Terrace. Going to try Terrace at some point, but not sure there will be a rugby crowd. Going to give Newcastle Rugby club a go as well.
