Is the line back to normal and does anyone know of a web site where I can get prices and times of trains from KK to the Toon.

A journey to the green green grass of home (Churchill playing fields) is one step closer and its time to plan!

I am going down to London on Friday. But I am going via Hull.

According to GNER There are buses on from York to Doncaster so I reckon it will be the same going to other way.

Also www.thetrainline.co.uk (or .com, can't remember off the top of my head). I think they only allow online bookings until 10p or midnight(something like that) UK time each day. Can't remember what time they start, probably between 7a-9a.

Churchill playing fields? the theatre of nightmares, scene of many a home thumping for Whitley Bay High first XI, were you party to any of these massacres Hiro?

Churchill Playing Fields are still my footballing location.

We play there a couple of times a week, (although not recently for some strange reason)

Hardly green grass though, more like an ankle breaking bumpy pitch littered with dog crap. I tell the owners to walk their dogs in Sunderland where they appreciate sh!te, but they won't listen.
